NFL Super Bowl XLIV - Our Picks
Tonight is the Pro Bowl in Florida and the Prince started talking about his pick for the Super Bowl. We talked about the strength of the Colts and their amazing season. But we also talked about the 2 games they threw at the end of the season and how un-sportsman like that was. We talked about New Orleans never being in a Super Bowl before and how a win would give a boost to the heart and soul of that still devastated town.
Because of the thrown games, we don’t think the Colts “deserve” to win the Super Bowl. Both teams have a shot at winning. The Colts have the skill and strength on the field. But the Prince and I think the Saints also have the talent and skill, but they also have more heart and desire for the win. That is an edge that no amount of skill can beat. So we’re both going with the New Orleans Saints to win Super Bowl XLIV!!

NFL Conference Championships - Spring & The Prince’s Results
The Conference weekend wasn’t a surprise. But at least both games weren’t blow outs. Minnesota really gave New Orleans a run for their money. Kudos to both teams for a well fought contest and clean game. It was hard watching as here in our house we were routing for both the Vikings and Brett and the Saints who have never been to the big show. I think the right team won. The Saints deserve to go and WIN the Super Bowl!

Conference Week
Here’s the picks:
| Away | Home | Winner | Vegas | Line | O/U | Bets | |||
| NY Jets | Indianapolis | 19 | 20 | IND | IND | 8.5 | 40 | NYJ | Under |
| Minnesota | New Orleans | 24 | 27 | NO | SD | 3.5 | 53.5 | MIN | Under |
I know the computer says Indy has the game, but my gut feeling is that the Jets will come to make a point. I have a feeling that Indy might be sorry about not bringing their A game to the Jets in the regular season.
Here’s how the Superbowl looks to me:
| Superbowl | Indianapolis | New Orleans | 24 | 26 | New Orleans | |
| New Orleans | Indianapolis | 22 | 22 | Indianapolis |
E.W.
Indy should be very afraid, do-overs are 0-2 in the playoffs.
Comments are off for this postNFL Conference Championships - Spring & The Prince’s Picks
Well we’re down to 4. It would be funny if the Jets found a way to take out the Colts after Indianapolis threw the last 2 games of the seasons. It really irritates me that they didn’t play their starts in those last games and try for the perfect record. So in some ways it would serve them right to lose to NY, but I don’t think they’re going to.
The hard game for me to pick is Minnesota and New Orleans. The Saints are the sentimental favorite, but I’d love to see Brett win and get back to the Super Bowl. But I’m going with the Saints. Hopes and Prayers to not only the team, but the city who needs this boost too!

NFL Divisional Playoff Weekend - Spring & The Prince’s Results
The pick for the Divisional Playoffs weren’t that hard. No way Arizona was going to take New Orleans. And while Dallas might have had a chance, it’s obvious they didn’t show up to play in Minnesota. Course it was great to see all those monstrous arrogant egos from Dallas looking totally dejected. I can’t stand Dallas!
So way to go Indy, New Orleans, Minnesota & the Jets.
