How many of you believe Tom Brady has a hurt hand? I'm not buying it.

I will believe the moment I see him unable to throw/toss to Gronk

Who cares?

Over 100M people care. 25-30 times more than watch the Stanley Cup finals.

For those who are interested:
Super Bowl LII
Sun., Feb. 4, 3:30 p.m (PST) at U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, Minnesota

I enjoy watching many sports, some only during their playoffs i.e MLB, MLS (since it's like watching paint dry in regular season)

Are you looking forward to the Las Vegas Raiders

Are you looking forward to the Las Vegas Raiders

Yes and no? Mixed feelings. I go to one game a year down in Oakland. Make it a weekend in the Bay area. Lots of fun! Catch a College game usually on the Friday night. After the last game in Oct we went into Frisco for seafood and Coach Del Rio was in the restaurant just a couple of tables from us....what are the odds for that happening.
Have our names in for Vegas season tickets.....we'll see.

My predictions:

I think the Jaguars could beat the Patriots if they could stop being jerks and just concentrate on football. Unfortunately I don't think they can do that so I think the Patriots will win.

The Eagles will wear the Vikings out.

Superbowl= Patriots vs Eagles

But I could be wrong.

I wouldn't bet against your predictions. Still, it wouldn't surprise me if Jacksonville upsets the Patriots. An upset would make me very happy as well!

As for the Vikings and the Eagles it seems like a toss-up but I'm thinking that Minnesota might just have the edge given the Eagles' struggles late in the season. We'll see. It's not the same without Seattle in there but I'll be watching!

I think any of the many millions all over the world who saw last year's amazing game will be tuning in to this one. Most of us are already watching the play-offs and they have been great so far this year. Can hardly wait to see tomorrow's games.

Should the Patriots make it to the Superbowl (again), I think the Vikings have a better chance of beating them than the Eagles, so I’ll be cheering for the Vikings. I think the team that has the best chance of beating the Patriots is the Jaguars, so I’ll be jumping up and down and screaming (in my head) cheering them on. The Jaguars showed a strong offence against the Steelers and might have the offensive firepower to keep up with Brady. Going out on a limb and predicting it is going to be the game of the day. I would further predict the Jaguars to win the Superbowl if they can get past the Patriots.

Next year? Well, there are some of us out here hoping …

Since I'm not a gambling type & I'm also not a big Celine Dion fan, only site I would be interested in besides live football (maybe even Golden Knights) is the Hoover Dam.
Bay area if nothing else has an ocean view & watching ships come & go under Golden Gate Bridge, I could do this longer then looking at dam.

If not next season, then most certainly there first season in Vegas the Raiders will be the team to beat. Their talent is coming on real well with healthy QB..... Super Bowl bound they are.

Added: they should win another Super Bowl before Buffalo wins there first, sorry Bills fans.

For all those football junkies, 12 noon to about 6:30/7pm is booked off. First up Jacksonville vs New England.
Interesting report out of Foxborough Brady has 4 stitches on his hand.
