STONE COLD LEAD PIPE DOCKS - SUPER BOWL EDITION



With the Super Bowl being today, another crazy NFL season has finally come to an end. We hope you guys enjoyed our picks and write-ups this year, and we hope you guys made some money off of them.  Now on to our Super Bowl Pix!  Good luck everyone!

Colts -4.5
I've gone back and forth a few times on this one.  And with my real money I'll probably be doing a Saints/Over teaser.  But for my pick, I'll take the Colts.  When the game was first decided, I thought the Colts would romp.  Peyton is on another planet right now.  He is playing for the title of greatest QB of this generation with this Super Bowl, but maybe of all-time.  Yes, Brady will still have more titles, but its different situations.  It'll be neck and neck at the least if Peyton wins this one.  Then the Freeney injury was announced, and everyone seemed to hop off the Colts bandwagon.  The Saints are a special team too.  But I just can't do it.  I can't pick against Manning in this game.  If the Colts defense is average because of the Freeney injury, then all that means to me is that Manning will amp his game up that much more and dominate.  I'll take the Colts 34 Saints 27, and Manning taking his place amongst the goats.

Colts -5 - no writeup...

Saints +5

I don't really have much analysis for this game.  Not that this is a mind blowing statement, but I honestly think this game can go either way, it's a coin flip. We know Peyton is going to be surgical as he always is, but I feel like the Saints are a team of destiny, and this is going to be their Super Bowl, so I am riding with them. I think somehow, someway, they come out with a W today.  Maybe Peyton will throw an uncharacteristic pick, maybe he will fumble, or the ball will get deflected in the closing seconds of the game.  I just see something crazy happening when the Colts have the ball, and I see the Saints taking advantage of it. Yes, the Saints looked bad in their last game vs the Vikings.  They shouldn't have won that game because they got outplayed. Yet, plain and simple, the magic continued, and they found a way to win the game.  For the Colts, Dwight F is still hobbled, and I do think that helps the Saints a lot. They won't have to keep a back in the backfield to help chip him. Instead they can spread it out, and let Brees do his thing.  Back to the destiny thing...The Saints are playing for the City of New Orleans and their people. These same players helped rebuild the city when it went under, and I see these same players winning it for their city.  Another thing I like is that Brees and Payton have chips on their shoulders.  No one wanted Drew Brees and Sean Payton a few years back, remember that?  Now they are proving everyone wrong.  I think that is how it is going to be in this Super Bowl. Everyone is on the Colts in this game.  Brees and Payton are underdogs who no one are giving a chance to win this game.  I think they prove the haters wrong one more time.   I see a shootout, with the Saints winning in the end.
GO SAINTS!!!

Also, a couple of props that me and Suman like are:
They will show Kim K 3 times or over - YES!
Carrie Underwood's National Anthem will be shorter/longer than 1 minute 40 secs - Longer

If your books have those props, try to hit them up...
