Who will win the Super Bowl? Easy: ABC!

Slight edge goes to the Raiders, for three reasons:
1. The old guys know this is probably their Last, best shot at the ring, and thus will want it more.
2. So much media attention will be directed toward Jon Gruden that Raiders coach Bill Callahan will be able to keep focus much more easily.
3. They're still PO'ed about the Tuck Rule game from Last year.

I still say my Giants got robbed. Stupid officials. although them blowing a huge lead in the 4th didnt help. you notice that the refs are very careful now. I actually heard one call introduced with the phrase "According to the rules of the NFL" Anyway, i think its going to be close, but the bucs will end up on top.

Yes you are correct in seeing this. They are saying "By rule... the call is this..." Which in my opinion is the right way to do it.
As it is right now I heard it, in the off season after super bowl the league is going to review how they handle roughing the kicker calls - due to the steelers/titans game that steelers should've won - and also I heard they will look at how overtime is handled. But they didn't think anything would change as far as overtime is taken care of.

But anyways, I hate the Giants but I agree, they did get robbed. Even if the ybeat the 49ers, they would have got stomped against the bucs. The refs missed a plainly obvious pass interference call downfield that would've allowed them to kick game winnning field goal.

Oh, I forgot to post my score prediction. Bucs 24 - Raiders 17.

As someone already said, Defense always wins the championship.

I have absolutely no friggin idea. I have a TV, but i don't have cable, or satellite, and am too far back in the hills for any local stations. my TV is vcr tape only capable. I have not even watched a game the whole season. I am shocked the Cardinals didn't make it this year. So based on my level of expertise, and a little psychic race technology I say

Bucks: 13
Radiers: 28

The Super Bowl is coming up? Wow....and the Raiders and the Bucaneers are playing. Hmmm....when did Tampa Bay get a team? I guess I sort of quit paying attention when the NFL players went on strike.

PS When the game is on I'll be playing SEIV or HoI :-)
