Official Colts / Bears Superbowl Thread!

[Jerry Tagge]

My parents got married Feb 4th 1967 the day the Packers played Kansas City in SuperBowl 1. Now 40 years later my parents will be celebrating their 40th wedding anversary together when the hated Bears play the Colts in SuperBowl 41. On February 5th the day after the SuperBowl my wife and I are going to celebrate our 2nd year together. We are going to have a GREAT TIME!! Mark my words!! Going to be a Dad in Aug!

Super Bowl I was played on Sunday, January 15, 1967.

I think the Bears will win.

Agreed.

I will be root, root, rooting for the Colts but I think the Bears win this game. I can't believe the Colts are favored by....what??? 7??? That's crazy.

I REALLY hope I'm wrong. Go Colts.

LW, I'm rooting for Dungy. Plain and simple. HE'S the one that deserves this win and I'd love to see him get it Manning or no Manning.

sorry zig, I cannot root for dungy BECAUSE of manning. even if manning sits out, i still cannot root for them.

[BooHoo]

I am not a big Manning fan either. Looks like I will watch the game without picking sides. Someone mentioned commercials!

[MJZiggy]

Uhhhh. Bump!

[MasonCrosby]

i want manning to finally get his so we can put this whole issue to rest.

plus i hate the bears with an undying passion. i thoroughly rip the bears a new one everytime i find a bears fan.

[BobDobbs]

Yeah, my first thought was "I can't cheer for Peyton Manning he's going to be in the game and in every focking commercial. He's probably going to sneak onstage while Prince is playing waving around a Pringles can. Doesn't he have enough money does he have to spend his whole offseason shilling whatever crap he can get paid to sell. Is he a car salesman or an NFL quarterback?"

Then I calmed down.

I remembered growing up in the 80s and watching to Bears do their best to destroy my childhood. No I can't root for the Bears. I actually do enjoy watching their Defense play, but I'll enjoy it more when Manning is throwing short passes to draw in the linebackers and then carving up the safeties with deep passes and fly routes to Dallas Clark.

No, my dislike for one unfortunate man cannot overcome a rivalry that stretches past my lifetime.

GO COLTS

If it was the Taliban vs. the Bears - I'd be rooting for the Taliban.

That would be a tough choice Scott

True, the turban isn't much of a substitute for my trusty cheesehead. And cheerleaders wearing the hijab don't do much for me. But the jihad fight song sure get's the blood boiling when you need a long bomb to pull out the W.

Silly, ok, yeah. But I really do hate the Bears.

This is exactly what I see happening as well!

Sorry folks but if I have to pick between Manning or grossgirl having as many Super Bowl rings as Favre I will take the lesser of two evils.

I hope Dungy leads the Colts to a win but I'd lay the money on the Bears winning outright.
