NFL Divisional Playoff Weekend

No politics, just sports. We said that we would sometimes write about sports on our blog. This quick post is about the NFL Divisional Playoff games taking place today and tomorrow. Got predictions? I'm rooting for the 49ers, Giants, Broncos and Ravens, but my picks for the winners are:

Saints 34       Niners 16

Patriots 27    Broncos 24 (close, I know. The Pats' D is terrible, and the Broncos can run the ball)

Ravens 21    Texans 17 (Live near Baltimore... GO RAVENS!)

Packers 38    Giants 31

I really hope it's the Ravens at home versus the Broncos for the AFC Championship game, but I doubt that will happen. Everyone have fun. Be safe!

    Anonymous (Jan 14, 2012 09:43 AM) - I do. This is, in my opinion, going to be the best game of the weekend. The Giants defense is starting to remind me of their 2007 (?) Super Bowl run. Pack only beat the Giants by 3 a few weeks back. And, just so you don't think I'm being a 'homer', I'm an Eagles fan!

    Ravens should crush the Texans as Ray Rice (from Rutgers!) has a big day. San Fran just won't be able to hang and Tebowmania comes to an end in Foxboro in a big way (good riddance!)!!!

  7. How about this ?
    What candidate would you most like to be stranded on a desert island with and WHY ?
    Which candidate would you be afraid of and why.
    Who would you trust with resources on the island ?
    Who would be the best hunter?
    Who makes you nervous ? And Why?
    If you could pick one guy that has the most experience building a community .....well, who is that guy?

    Etc, etc,...

  9. About as much as football has to do with politics.
