(Poll) Who you watching now?

by Sparki on Jan 18, 2010 10:33 AM EST

Our 2 favorite teams in the playoffs (Eagles, and the team playing against the Cowboys) are no longer. Another standby (the team playing Patriots) is not available either. So who are you watching?.. Answer in the Poll Below.

I just placed the 4 real teams and other for the rest. I hesitated to add more options to the poll below, but I didn't want to muddy the results. I know there are some fun choices, we probably have some Favre haters that are ok to come out now that he's done dismantling the even more hated Dallas team.. maybe some that are just against any Manning...

If you actually are cheering for a team go ahead and click them. If you're cheering against just go with other and post it.

Personally I'm repaying a debt to the misses. She supports my love for our Eagles and even wears some midnight green on occasion, it's probably become her favorite team to support (due to me and my friends).. but she's from Viking territory. She only ever asks that I don't cheer against them, and she was pretty cool during the playoffs last year when we went head-to-head. So as much as I'm not cool w/ Favre, I've decided that I'm ok with cheering against the team playing the Vikings... (a technical 'Other')...

With the Eagles and Cowboys both out, I no longer have a horse in the race. I’m totally ambivalent towards every team left in the playoffs. In a way, it’s kinda nice to be able to sit back and enjoy the games without caring who wins.

Without the Eagles to root for or the Cowboys to root against, I want to see some offense, so go saints.

I wanna see ~~Buddy~~ Rex Ryan win some. As much as I hate Mark Sanchez, Ryan is just too much like his daddy.

But we all know Old Man Fav-er will win it all…

Oh God

Can you imagine what we would have to deal with for the next couple months if Favre actually won? He’s gonna be on every channel 24/7 and all sports analysts will be talking about how great this guy is.

I don't really care but

wouldn’t mind seeing Vikings-Jets for the defensive battle. Let’s face it, Favre has already been canonized by the media and that won’t change if his team falls out of the NFCC or loses the Superbowl, so rooting against him is kind of pointless and I kind of get a kick out of seeing the old man can still play.

I wonder if Favre will retire again and the Vikings will need another veteran QB next season.

for Vikes sake they better hope he plays for a longtime

cause we all know they don’t do well developing QB’s. Who is next on the chart Tavaris?

"When people talk about Super Bowl dynasties they mention the 1970's Steelers, 1980's 49ers, 1990's Cowboys and the current New England Patriots, but nobody has dominated the Super Bowl like Anheuser-Busch. In recent years, Budweiser has been the MVP of Super Bowl advertising -- making another company the favorite to win the Ad Meter poll was never an option."

The Favre retirement soap opera plays out every season

The Vikings bought the ticket, now they get to ride the ride.

RIBTA?

Rex Is Better Than Andy?

...But if he pulls the rug on his quarterback, Reid must do it knowing that he let McNabb down more than McNabb ever let him down.

Jets, if only for the Buddy Ryan connection, and half my family are Jets fans.

I've been sayin "Wait til next year" for 32 years....

when the eagles go out i turn to favorite players on other teams

my 4 favorite non-eagles would be Megatron, John Carlson, Tom Brady, and Jared Allen.
Considering Megatron and Carlson didn’t even make the cut and Brady went out the same week as the Eagles, I’m pulling for Jared Allen and the Vikings (if they went out i really wouldn’t care though)

tom brady?

explain.

by Manoovi on Jan 18, 2010 5:07 PM EST up reply actions

he's a winner and a leader

i’ve liked him since he filled in for drew bledsoe and never looked back.

by Q27 on Jan 18, 2010 6:51 PM EST up reply actions

Im going for INDY or the saints...

I like Payton and Brees, Basically whichever one loses this week im going for the other team…

If they both win ill just flip a coin.

thats Cobb on Kolb crime if you ask me... as said by yophillybro

In the order of wanting them to win

1) Jets
2) Saints
3) Vikings
4) Colts

by Rabbit T on Jan 18, 2010 7:17 PM EST reply actions

well hmmmmmm

I wanted to see the Saints succeed this year for that city and their fans. Yet since I have been engaged and conversated with some of their non humbled fans, I think I will not root for them. They are way to cocky for my taste. I just feel they should be humbled for actually winning and having a chance in the big dance finally.

I like the Vikings for Farve but I don’t care to much for teams who try to embarrass other teams with unsportsmanship ( pats).

I like the Jets because of their defense but I just don’t really have a good feeling for that team.

So the Colts are the team I would like to see succeed. I like the demeanor of Peyton Manning. I like his personality and he is such a good guy without drama and all( aka Farve). I think that whole organization shows alot of class win or lose. So here’s hoping they succeed this year.
