(I'm hoping, since I'll be there.)

(If the Pats win, they get to go to San Diego. On paper, that one looks like a sure-fire ass-kicking by the Chargers. On the other hand, the Chargers continually choke in the big game, and there's always the Norv Factor, so that game would be 50/50 probably...)

I would say that we choked in 2004 against the Jets and in 2006 against the Pats, but in 2007 against the Pats, we were so depleted due to injury it wasn't funny, and did you really expect the Chargers to win in Pittsburgh last year?
