I do. They all strangely have an asterisk as part of their last names.

Did I win?

Man, I reeeeeeaally want the Seahawks to win. But it just feels like Denver's year.

Vomit and fart noise.

Good thing you didn't hiccup at the same time, you'd die.

It's probably your computer. Try turning it off and then back on.

The Broncos QBs are the ones who played on teams that violated the salary cap during their championship seasons?

I think Seattle is the better team, especially if they do get to him, but the NFL is on a mission this season to get Manning ring #2. A call here, a non-call there (especially on a pick play) should do the trick.

All Seattle has to do is knock the stupid horse off Manning's helmet and that should slow them down enough. Id hit that **** every play that I could, nothing illegal, but definitely let him know its gonna be a long day. Id also blow up every pick play the same way. Seattle has the players, and especially the mind set to do it.

I predict there will be at least 3 more prediction threads created before the game.

Everything you described is illegal now. You're not allowed to hit the quarterback and you're not allowed to hit receivers. You're allowed to gently drag receivers to the ground after they've been given ample opportunity to catch the ball, and you are only allowed to grab the quarterback around the waist.

Definitely. His competitive nature won't allow him to quit while he can clearly play with the best of them.

The other challenge now is that quarterbacks have no natural life span. They take very few hits and they make a ton of money, so they might as well play until their arm falls off. I think we could have 45 year-old quarterbacks in the league at some point.
