Obligatory Super Bowl Prediction
On the one hand, I really don't care. On the other hand, I tend to root for the underdog, so I should go with Seattle. On the third hand, the underdog going into the playoffs was Pittsburgh, so I should side with the Steelers. On the fourth hand, Mary lived for a while in Seattle, so Seahawks it is. On the fifth hand, Seattle beat the Panthers, so how can I root for the team that deprived mine of a trip to Detroit? On the sixth hand, if my guys aren't going to win it all, then I want the team that beat them to take the Lombardi.
So: Seattle 27, Pittsburgh 24. And now, it's time to park my butt in front of the tube and watch the fun.
Update: 21-10 Pittsburgh, but come on — the refs really screwed Seattle in this game. However, the chili was good, the queso was gooey, and the chocolate chip cookies were delicious, so I'm not complaining too much.
