Okay, I was wrong
My super bowl predicition was wrong. I know it even 4 hours before the game is scheduled tostart. I projected New Orleans vs. San Diego. SB XLI has Chicago vs. Indy.So, nearly half the nation(and other countries) will be tuning in tonight. This will be a game for the ages, because I believe that it will be won on a last second field goal.If you want to know what team will win go to FYI SPORTS FANS Forum at z10.invisionfree.com/The_Sportz_Zone/.Also, while your there, look at all the cool stuff and check out the sports website that goes along with it at fyisportsfans.com.

Super Bowl projections
I took the liberty of thinking that New Orleans and San Diego would be in the Super Bowl this year, so I played it on Madden 07.
Here is the final Score(You'd better believe it)
New Orleans 72 San Diego 31
I played as New Orleans.

Florida Gators win National Championship
Noooooooooooooooooooo........
The Gators won!! Now, I am not an Ohio State fan, nor will I ever be, but I am a Michigan fan and personally, I wanted to see the Gators get their butts handed to them to prove that the Wolverines should have been in it. And yes, Michigan should have been in that game. Florida just won because everyone was saying that they would lose. I am guilty of that, myself. But, a better National Championship game that would have had a lot better ratings.

2006 reflections
I'm sitting here waiting for 2007 to come and 2006 to get out of here, I have looked back on what has happened this year. One of the greatest hockey players, Steve Yzerman retired,Cory Lidle crashed into an apartment building on Manhattans' upper east side; The Tigers did the seemingly impossible and so did the Lions.The Tigers won, and the Lions got worse.2006 was a weird year, and I think I'm glad to see it go. Right now, I'm also getting ready for the big game tomorrow: Michigan vs. USC in the Rose Bowl.This is a rematch of a few years back, when USC beat Michigan 28-14. However, USC hasn't gotten better since then and Michigan has. Next year, people should be on the lookout for these Michigan Wolverines. They are getting Michael Hart, Mario Manningham, Adrian Arrington, and possibly Chad Henne back. But, the defense won't be as good when Leon Hal, Alan Branch(possibly), and Lamarr Woodley leave for the pro's after this game.

New Year's NFL resolutions
By Jason Cole, Yahoo! SportsDecember 27, 2006
More New Year's resolutions: MLB NBA NASCAR
With a New Year about to hit, it's time for the annual resolution ritual. Sure, there are the usual personal goals, such as the promise I make every year to rebuild my jump shot to its once-enjoyable form. Heck, just the idea of getting my hefty rump off the ground enough to call it a "jump" would be an accomplishment.
This year, there are a number of promises I'm making to myself to become a better person when it comes to writing about the NFL. With that in mind, here's a list of ideas for 2007:
I will continue to hope every day that Tony Dungy and Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts win a Super Bowl together.
I will hope that Cincinnati Bengals coach Marvin Lewis learns one day that depending on criminals doesn't pay.
I promise to stop giggling to myself every time I hear the words "Oakland Raiders" and "Detroit Lions."
I'll stop writing that Detroit president Matt Millen is a joke and should be fired. Belaboring the obvious is boring.
I will stop wondering why Ford Motor Company is struggling to survive. The Fords also own the Lions.
I will not relent in demanding that the NFL adopt a one-game suspension for any player and a severe fine for any coach or team executive who is arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, even if the offense is later reduced or dismissed. In a game where there's so much money and so much support, there's no excuse for this type of irresponsible behavior.
After watching Vince Young (Tennessee Titans), Matt Leinart (Arizona Cardinals), Jay Cutler (Denver Broncos) and Tony Romo (Dallas Cowboys) this season, I'll stop writing that playing quarterback in the NFL is really hard for rookies and other inexperienced players.
I promise to stop feeling that overwhelming sense of weary disgust every time I hear the words "Terrell Owens."
I won't roll my eyes so much when I hear Al Davis talk about how the Raiders have done more to help minorities than any other organization in sports history.
I will stop believing all of New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin's idiotic notions about the importance of discipline when he can't even discipline his own play-calling.
I will give thanks more often now that Roger Goodell, who has shown the common courtesy to learn the names of many of the people who cover his league, is now commissioner of the NFL.
I will constantly remember that I should never ever, ever, ever turn the sound up on my TV during ESPN's god-awful "Jacked Up" segment.
I will stop wondering why ESPN's Michael Irvin refuses to criticize any person he interviews, starting with Terrell Owens.
I promise to stop wondering how the Bidwill Family (owners of the Cardinals) can be so utterly clueless.
I will continue to be grateful that I have one of the best jobs anyone could ever imagine.
