Tomorrow at 18:30 EST, they'll play Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, Florida. The New England Patriots are looking for their third title in four years while the Philadelphia Eagles seek their first-ever championship.
If I were putting a loonie down on the outcome, I'd go with the Patriots. They've been here before, are well coached and everyone knows defense wins championships. The T.O. factor is intriguing, but at the end of the day the Patriots are the better team.
Once again, I'll miss all the anticipated ads and will be forced to see a dozen or so commercials for "Falcon Beach" and "The Apprentice", but at least I'll catch the decent ones on the web. If you're looking for some pre-Super Bowl reading, I recommend the Snopes page on Super Bowl legends.
Don't turn off your televisions immediately after the game either. Homer seeks Ned's help when he is asked to choreograph the Super Bowl halftime show in "Homer & Ned's Hail Mary Pass". I'm so there.
