    I'm not rooting for anyone!!!!! I refuse since BOTH of my teams choked... one last week and the other the week before!!! This is me pouting! :0*

    Can anyone guess who those teams were??? Well, alright I'll tell you.... The squaws (opps I mean Chiefs)..... and the Seachickens... (I mean Seahawks)...... Both choked!!!! I'm not claiming either of those teams... (well, at least until next season)...

    In the mean time I have a feeling the superbowl teams will be .. the Steelers vs. Packers!

    Good Luck!!

    Well, does it age me to say that the Jets were the first team I
    rooted for? How 'bout if I mention that the QB was Joe Namath? So, by default and for fun, the NY Jets!

    Oh, Sue--being from NY too--the Jets were my team
    all the way. And, I had a major crush on Joe Namath! My dad and I watched every game.

    This is a hard one
    Definitely have to root for the Jets, since the Steelers beat my Ravens.

    Will probably root for the Packers, even though it's a toss up and I could go either way.

    Just waiting for the Super Bowl party!

    we are still hurting too
    we are still hurting too much after the Eagles Loss. oh my!

    hurting? Have *I* got an answer for you!!!
    Well, I'm new here (having been newly diagnosed with cancer of SOME kind.) But for this particular subject I'm an expert. See, I'm from Detroit. The Lions have pre-season games against local high schools. And....they LOSE. Every once in awhile, the team teases us. When they had Barry Sanders, at least we could look forward to a few great plays through all the losses. No more.

    When you've been a Lions fan for awhile, even shelling out for season tickets, losses cease to be painful. (Friends also question your sanity, but that's a different matter!) Constant exposure to bad football helps; REALLY bad football, like we had when we went 0-16 a couple years ago, helps develop that tough exterior even more.

    So, football hurts? Not a chance. If your expectations are really low, you won't be disappointed. Become a Lions fan and not only will the hurting stop, but the team colors of powder blue and silver are pretty darn flattering!!!! ;o)

    The '85 BEARS SO ROCKED!
    I agree LVG! Haven't been this excited since then!! Not that this current team is anywhere near as fun to watch, but the feeling in the air and excitement around town is the same!!

    GO BEARS!!!

    More of a basketball fan, myself
    But I'm rooting for the Bears and the Steelers (my hubby's favorite team) to make it to the Superbowl, and the Bears to win it (sorry, hubby!) just because it's been soooooo long.

    Cindy .. sounds like my house .. between my son
    and husband .. My husband and his Pittsburg Steelers, and Andrew and his 'BEARS' .. Everytime I hear someone say 'Bears', all I can recall are the Saturday Night skits .. with 'Norm' from Cheers, I can't recall his name .. but I recall many skits ..

    Hoping for a wonderful series ...

    Go Bears
    Marsha, I am not a football girl but I am a Chicago girl. I never forgot the day the Bears played the Super Bowl. Everything closed early so people could go home to watch the game. Big department stores closed by 4:00 p.m. when they should have closed at 6:00 p.m. Nothing like that has every happened in Chicago. Very little traffic on the streets. Grocery stores empty. If the Bears win tomorrow, I wonder if the stores will close early for the upcoming Super Bowl game. Time will tell.

    By the way, I love the Super Bowl because I love their commercials. Learn about the commercials when I took a marketing course. However, if the Bears play this year in the Super Bowl I won't leave the room for anything as I don't want to miss the game and I don't want to miss the commercials.

    Lots of Hugs,
    Janelle
