Ok guys the Super Bowl is only 6 days away and the game is on! Just thought I'd get some of your thoughts on the game. Who you will be cheering for? Should the Vikes be in instead of the Saints? Is Peyton over or under rated? How about Drew Brees? Has he finally got his chance? Let's hear it guys! Feel free to post anything about the big game here

Im glad the Viqueens arent in it. The last thing Favre deserves is a chance at another Super Bowl ring.
I will be rooting for the Saints. After everything the city of New Orleans has been through and what the Saints' fans have been through (remember they were the ones who used to wear paper bags on their heads), IMO they are due for a Super Bowl win.
Im tired of the Colts. Manning has had his fair share of chances and has done enough winning in his career. Im ready for someone new to win it.

Who you will be cheering for? Indianapolis Colts

Should the Vikes be in instead of the Saints? No. The Saints were the better team that day, they deserve to be right where they are.

Is Peyton over or under rated? Neither. He is what he's cracked up to be.

How about Drew Brees? Under. Being in a league with P. Manning, Brady, and Favre, he doesn't get as much credit as he deserves.

Has he [Drew Brees] finally got his chance? This is probably the best chance he'll ever have at winning a Super Bowl.

Career Bests:

9 Holes--37 @ The Fairways at Arrowhead-Front(+2)

18 Holes--80 @ Carroll Meadows Golf Course(+9)

 

Home Course:

1) The Fairways at Arrowhead

2) Mayfair Country Club

I like the atmosphere in here. Haha. I like the comments. All have valid points. I'm going to hold off on letting you guys know who I'm rooting for until the day of the game. Get some suspense built up. Ok, maybe the suspense will only be for me Lol. Most of you probably don't care what I think, but let's keep this thread goin'! I'm diggin' it!

Freeney is probably out I think that could be a BIG factor. Before that detail came out I saw Indy in a possible rout. Now not so much.

I will be in Vegas for the game so trying to figure out which way to go. With Freeney out might take the 5.5 and root for the Saints who I would like to see win.

You southerners must have it bad. A couple days without golf. Try making it three or four months.

Yeah, Haha, it's sucks here in Ky. I went 3 weeks ago just cause I couldn't wait any longer. Snow had just melted off and the course was a mess. Now there is about 10" of snow on the ground. Going to be a WHILE before I get to the links again.

Freeney is going to be a HUGE factor in this game. His absence, if he doesn't play will definately be a drop of chances for Indy.

I'm pulling for the Colts, but a part of me wants them to suffer for intentionally giving up a shot at a perfect season. I understand the logic they claim to have been using, but a) that's lame and b) they didn't even apply that logic properly so it's a serious cop-out. Still, they're "my" team so they better find a way to win, whether Freeney's at 0%, 100%, or somewhere in between.

Peyton is fairly ranked, I think. I'm not a student of football enough to rate him in a historical perspective, but there's just no way you can fairly rank him other than at the top of the top. Where he rates next Brady or the other bests at the moment, I'm not sure, but really the only black marks he has are failing to win more rings. And even that's not entirely fair as he's not been part of a team that's been as strong on both sides of the ball as the Pats were in their big run. To have had the kind of success he had in the regular season over the years is astounding, and it's not terribly surprising for a team, even an offensive juggernaut like the Colts were, to have trouble in the post-season with their history of flawed defenses.

As for Brees, honestly I barely have enough time to follow the Colts, so I don't have much of an opinion. Other than to say I wish him luck the NEXT time he gets a shot at the ring. Hopefully his upcoming loss on Sunday will fuel his fire then.

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.

      Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.

      Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.

      The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.

      7 Wood

      By ZenShot ·

      I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
