NFL

Hope no one stopped up to watch the Colts/ Pats game.

I did and oh deary me, the Colts just were not at the races, they were woeful, couldn't catch, couldn't tackle and their defensive line couldn't block. That written, the PAts running back, LaGarette Boult, was just unstoppable, he was breaking tackles, dodging tackles and the Pats offensive line were creating holes for him to have clear passage.

If Lynch and Boult both bring their top running game to the super bowl, the super bowl will be one hell of a game.
 
Watched the pats game til they scored there first touchdown. Thought the colts looked very very sloppy and if they had caught early catches (which were bread and butter catches) it could of been a good game.

nice to see pats play well without Gronk being the main man. Could be a classic superbowl with the seahawks looking to be the first team to win it back to back since the Pats did it last decade. Could it be the last superbowl that Brady plays in.

come on Pats.
 
Don't care who wins now, as long as it is a good game. I'll be cooking something as I have done in previous years and I'm thinking a large lump of beef dry drubbed and slow smoked on the BBQ all day, with some potato accompaniment, probably roast normal and sweet potato in honey/Garlic/Chilli dressing and sweet corn or refried beans.
 
Oh My God. What an amazing come back. I feel sorry for the Packers, they seemed to completely stop what was a well working game plan, but NFC Champs, what a result!!!

The only thing that I think is a bit unfair is the OT rules. I understand them, but I feel that each team should at least have a chance of possession, so much rides on that coin toss it's crazy!
 
That was the ultimate choke job by the Packers. As Neil Reynolds said on the Sky coverage, they played not to lose. And they did. They were 19-7 up with possession after the fourth pick at midfield with five minutes left. Seems like they have been watching the Bucs' method of how to lose a game.

Still at least a friend of mine, LeGarrette Blount, is going to the Super Bowl with the Pats. Good for him - he's a decent bloke.

Looks like the pats are being investigated for Cheating in the arc final for letting air out of the balls which makes them easier to catch. So what happened to the butterfingers Indy colts.

The two teams use different balls, so the "easier to catch balls" (which were 11 out of the 12 used by the Patriots) were only used by the Patriots. Sounds like punishment could be a draft picks or such like. Not enough punishment for me, 11 out of 12 is too much to be an accident.
