[hcmv007]

Still sticking to my prediction, Colts 28 Bears 14.


I'll do my game review on Monday, as well as who SHOULD have been MVP, and list my favorite commercials.



Next Wed-I will be posting my prospects for the draft, I hope to have it complete, but it may not be. I am posting my top 10, plus 5 sleepers at the skill positions, for other positions (except K and P), I will list the top 15.















Countdown to Kickoff-T minus 3 days! Countdown to hcmv007's football depression-immediately after the game.

[Johnboy007]

Bears 21 - Colts 18

Everyone is picking the Colts so I thought I would be different.

[Mike00spy]

Colts 41
Bears 24

Remember most super bowls aren't that close . . .

[The Dove]

I'm going with the Chicago Bears upsetting the Indianapolis Colts 38- 31 in Super Bowl XLI... The reason why I'm rooting for the Bears is because A. As a Broncos fan, I can't stand the Colts B. the mascot of my alma mater, University of Norther Colorado was.. Da Bears!! lol.. and C. I would love to see a 2006 version of the Super Bowl Shuffle!!!

Oh and if you are a Green Bay Packers fan, nfl.com and espn.go.com have the story up on their pages that Brett Favre will indeed return for a 17th season!! Why not! I say, they actually got on a roll at the end of last season, so they may have some momentum going into this season...8-8 way better than anyone thought they'd be at the beginning of the year!!

[tdalton]

Colts 38
Bears 14

[Tarl_Cabot]

Bears 24

Colts 21

[Tarl_Cabot]

Today's weather in Chicago: It's 0F, -21F windchill...I don't think there will be alot of outdoor celebrating tonight!

[Double-0-7]

I think Manning will keep his head on straight (unless a certain Bear linebacker twists it off!) and lead his team to a 27-21 victory.

[mrsbonds_ppk]

GO Colts!
Colts 31 Bears 17

[Monkeyfoahead]

Bears 24
Colts 21


It begins in 20 minutes, good luck gentlemen.

[Number 6]

Bears take this SB...

[Number 6]

Sloppiest Super Bowl I've seen thus far. Has it ever rained during one of these? I can't recall...

[Double-0-7]

It sure has. Whichever one was the Steelers first win was against the Minnesota Vikings in rain in New Orleans. It was supposed to be played in the Superdome, but it wasn't finished on time!

[Number 6]

Thanks for the info.

Anyway if it weren't for the Bears D, they'd be out of this game already...Grossman just sucks.

[bill007]

Congratulations Indianapolis Colts!! No more monkey on Peyton Mannig's back.

[Bon-san]

...Grossman just sucks.

I haven't followed his play all year, but he sure stunk up the joint tonight. How many floaters do you think you can get away with in a Super Bowl?

[Johnboy007]

That was a really bad Super Bowl. Just incredibly sloppy.

Still, congrats to Tony Dungy and the Colts.

(Colts' MVP: Rex Grossman)

(Colts' MVP: Rex Grossman)

Agreed. Terrible Super Bowl. Usually the game carries a great deal of excitement with it, but the whole thing was bad, from all the festivities surrounding it to the actual game itself. And I still come away from the game feeling that way even though, for only the second time ever, the team that I wanted to win the game actually ended up winning it.

[Tarl_Cabot]

Congrats to the champions, the Colts.

and Da Bears for a great season.

[hcmv007]

My prediction

Colts 28
Bears 14

Actual score:

Colts 29
Bears 17



Only 4 points off the actual score!


Congrats to Tony Dungy-a GREAT man and coach leads his team to victory-isn't that what matters?




The game-bad. Maybe it was the weather, but I think the NFL would like to see this game played indoors in the future. Congrats to the Colts, and finally a Manning QB'd team can say they have won a championship. To me, the real MVP should have been Dominic Rhodes. Anyone who rushes over 100 yds for the winning team should be the MVP. Co-MVP's maybe, with Manning who played well. IMO-the Bears did not blitz enough, and played soft on Defense, and Grossman played like i thought he would-poorly, come on, he was due to choke!


The commericals-not too memorable now were they?

[Number 6]

Rex Grossman has to be the WORST Super Bowl quarterback ever. Never have I seen one qb toss so many "punts" in one game...pathetic.



Geez, my 5 year old nephew could throw harder...

[00Twelve]

Whoooo!!!! My horses came through! Fantastic game. I think we can pull a repeat if we don't get too comfortable on the high saddle.

[Mike00spy]

Geez, my 5 year old nephew could throw harder...

Still not as bad as the Dolphins' Super Bowl XVII QB David Woodley. (4-14 97 yds, 1 td 1 int)

Doesn't quite count because he didn't play a full game to get a chance to redeem himself; Don Strock was brought in the the rest of that game to no avail...


Shula had the sense to pull Woodly; I have no idea what Lovie was thinking with GROSS-Man...

[Mike00spy]

Should have pulled him after the bears failed to get a TD when they had the good field position (after the kick return and the 15 yd penalty) it was apparent to everyone (except maybe the Bears) that Grossman was not going to win the game for them.

[Number 6]

Fully agree...

[Mister Asterix]

Best Super Bowl half-time show ever. Prince still rocks. He must be on the Dick Clark ageing plan.

[The Dove]

The commericals-not too memorable now were they?

Actually I thought they had some of the best commercials this year, hcmv.. In particular the Bud Light ones were hillarious, and I loved the Snickers one with the guys working on the car!!.. Taco Bell was also great with the talking lions..

As for the game, Congrats to Dungy, Manning and the Indianapolis Colts for winning!! While I was rooting for the Bears, It was nice to see the Colts get the ultimate prize!! As for Da Bears... what a disappointment!! Bad Rex showed up... He was awful!!! They should have yanked in in favor of Brian Griese!! The defense was also very vanilla, which is surprising to me because if you're going up against Manning, you think they would try and mix things up a little!! Bad coaching, bad Quarterback.. is it really any wonder why Chicago lost?

Loved Prince at the half time show, particually "Purple Rain"... I think he was MILES better than the Rolling Stones last year!!

[The Dove]

Sloppiest Super Bowl I've seen thus far. Has it ever rained during one of these? I can't recall...

Nope..first time ever it has rained in any Super Bowl!!
