As soon as the Championship games were over I began to look at the Superbowl matchup and I immediately began a debate with the Sports Girl. Here it is:
The Mind: Well Sh@! i honestly didn't see this coming. The Saints? The Superbowl won't even be a game. The Colts can go home and clear off their mantle, they have a new trophy to put up
Sports Girl: I dont know, the Saints looked strong. it'll be closer than you think.
The Mind: The have the 25th ranked defense!
Sports Girl: yeah and Minnesota had the best in the league and they still hung 30+ on them.
The Mind: Yeah but it was the offense that lost the game not the defense that won. The Vikings had 2 turnovers at most in any game this season yet Sunday they had 6. The Saints didn't do that. Favre and AP did. Peyton won't dive the D a chance. It will be 30 to 42, which is what yesterday should have been.
Sports Girl: That's fair enough but my point is a 2nd, or whatever the defense was ranked, doesn't give up 31 points. And the points and atleast three of those turnovers they gave right back.
The Mind: But is Minnesota better defensively than Indainapolis? Indianapolis had a much better season and would have been undefeated if they hadn't taken a rest week.
Sports Girl: Absolutely! Look up the rankings, it's not even close.
The Mind: But look at all the outcomes, F!@# the numbers, who won?! The Colts are the best team in the NFL.
Sports Girl: You brought it up!
The Mind: Who has the best record in the NFL? Colts!
Sports Girl: You brought up that defense ranking. it'll still be closer probably then people think
The Mind: I stand by 42 to 30, Colts win.
Hopefully the Sports Girl and I can continue to debate and give you some different thoughts about things. Hope you enjoy! Go Colts! (42 to 30 over the Aint's)
