   The AFC team

   LOL

   My mind picks the Colts because tey are at home, they have a great offense, and the pats are a weaker team this year personnel wise. But …

   My heart says never pick against Tom Brady when a championship is on the line.

   Bears lose big in the Super Bowl if they are the NFC winners. Saints lose less big.

   Published: Saturday, January 20, 2007

   BAGHDAD (AP) – A U.S. helicopter went down Saturday northeast of Baghdad, killing all 13 people on board, the military said.

   Emergency coalition forces secured the site, the military said in a brief statement, adding the incident was under investigation.

   The helicopter was carrying 13 passengers and crew members and all were killed, it said. The identities of the service members were being withheld pending notification of relatives.

   The military said the crash occurred northeast of Baghdad but gave no other specifics. The statement also did not include the customary comment that the aircraft had not been shot down, indicating it may have been brought down by insurgent fighters.

   Fuck Bush.

   I am, of course, pulling for the Saints to go all the way.  However, I’m pretty sure that they will stick to historical form and find some way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory during the last two minutes of the game tomorrow….
