Cranky’s Super Bowl
Prediction
It is that
time of the year again, Super Bowl and Cranky’s Super Bowl pick. My prognostication is an annual event and so
far I am seven for eight in picking the winning team and three for eight in
getting the score exactly correct. Don’t
believe me? Look it up, Google “Cranky’s
Super Bowl picks.”
OK, don’t
waste your time, I have no idea if any predictions have been accurate or not
and I am too lazy to go back and check.
Anyway, my predictions are as good as any.
The first
step in my prediction is always which team do I want to win. Otherwise I would be rooting for two contrary
events, picking the winner and rooting to be wrong.
This year
the Patriots are playing Los Angeles. As
a long time New York tri-state resident, clearly, I must root against New England…right? Well I am also a contrarian and EVERYONE that does not live in New
England hates the Patriots, so I have decided to root for NE this year. Besides that they are just the better team.
The next
step in my prediction is based on my extensive football knowledge.
I don’t have
much football knowledge. I do know NE
has a good offence, they have Tom Brady as quarterback and they have a coach
named Belichick.
Brady is an
old man, but if you do not pressure him, he will win. Simple as that, if you don’t get in Brady’s
face, if you give him time to throw, he will win. So far in the play-offs no one has pressured
Brady. Why? Because if you have a QB that is so good he cannot
be beaten if he does not get pressured, and a coach named Belichick, then you will structure your team with
a line that can protect Brady.
This brings
me to Belichick.
Brady is the
best QB (if not pressured) EVER,
Belichick is the best head coach EVER. Both facts explain why everyone hates the
Pats, people love a winner, unless that winner NEVER loses, and NE with Brady and Belichick almost NEVER lose.
So, there it
is, Cranky’s Super Bowl pick this year is The New England Patriots, who I hate,
but am tired of having them beat my team.
Another
prediction:
At half time
both coaches will say “We have to
eliminate mistakes, be more physical and avoid turnovers.”
Oh yeah, the
score:
After much
consideration
NE 31 – Rams
17.
Let the record show that Val and 90% of the city of St. Louis have your back!

I don't know anything about Super Bowl. It is on UK TV. I have watched it for a while and I have a question for you:
ReplyDeleteWhy do they paint dark lines under their eyes?
God bless.
It's supposed to keep the glare from their sweat from shining in their eyes. Studies show it doesn't work!!
DeleteThank you, fishducky.
DeleteGod bless.
And the New Orleans team, i think, might have given NE a run for the money, which is why everyone down here is so upset about it. We will never know.
ReplyDeleteI preduct that some folks will watch the game and some folks won't, that some people will eat too much and some will drink to much but most importantly, I predict that one team will lose and another team will lose and the sun will still come up the next day.
ReplyDeleteYou're probably right!!
DeleteGood chance you are right. I really know nothing about the Rams and what I feel about the Pats is unprintable. Still holding a grudge from 1982 snow plow game and a few shady dealings since. Anyway I will root against the Pats as I did last year and that paid off. Maybe this year too?
ReplyDeleteI guess I’ll be for the pats too because the refs cheated the Saints during the playoffs:(
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed your previous posts so I have to have a combinepostcomment moment. No you're not gay...you are married. I think we all made it through the cold, snow, and ice of the last week of January. The groundhog had his say but I'm not listening to any rodents on the weather forecast. I leave that up to the weather channel. I'm the only person on the planet not watching the Super Bowl or it's commercials. I'll be watching Hallmark's puppy bowl most likely. If you watch that you just might be gay.
ReplyDeleteThe Superbowl...that's today, isn't it?
