What will go down in Super Bowl XLI
Feb 03, 2007 | 3:29PM | report this

Super Bowl XLI (that's 41 for you dim-wits) is going to be a, close game. My 2 reasons for that thought is:

  1. Adam Vinatieri is playing in the game, every Super Bowl he's been in was decided by 3 points.
  2. The Steelers aren't in it, so the refs won't hand the game to a guy who they know that's going to retire after the game.

Now this is how the game will go down half-by-half.

1st half- Peyton Manning will throw for a 73 yard TD to Dallas Clark on the 3rd play of the game. But they'll try for 2 to get an edge but Brian Urlacher pulls a Bobby Bouche move and kicks Joseph Addai who'll fall down for a loss. The Bears first drive doesn't go as well, with Rex Grossman fumbling the ball and Rob Morris falls on it for Colts ball. Then the Colts drive all the way to the 2, but have to settle for a Adam Vinatieri FG. During commercial break, we see a very dull commercial dealing with international kids playing futbol. Then Jerome Bettis asks them what they are doing, with one of the kids telling him in German that they are playing futbol. The Bus tells them they are wrong, goes to Nike to get them pads and teaches them real football and then they go to McDonalds to celebrate. Uh, back to the game, while the Bears are in the huddle, a fan comes out streaking. But he has bad rolls, which the FCC mistakens for boobs, so they blur them out. The Bears kick a 46-yd FG to go in the half down 9-3.
Halftime- While the teams talk it over in the lockerroom, Prince tries to dazzle the people, but they decide that he's not very good so they throw garbage at him. Eventually, they show us Beyonce, but they staple her dress up so we won't get the incident like we had at Super Bowl XXXVII (if I did the numerals right.)
2nd Half- On the kickoff, Devin Hester takes it all the way and helps the Bears take a 10-9 lead. Throughout the whole 3rd Quarter we don't see much more action, except for a missed FG by Gould. Fast-Forward to the 4th with roughly 2:00 to go. The Bears have the ball at the 20, hang on to the ball they have the win. So they hand it off to Thomas Jones, oh, he pulls a Jerome Bettis and fumbles it, but, you guessed it, Rex Grossman pulls a Ben Rothlesberger and tackles Bob Sanders at the 40. They get a first down, Manning to Wayne, then rundown the clock to :10 left and Vinatieri get's it blocked by Tank Johnson. And the Bears win Super Bowl XLI 10-9, with Devin Hester being the MVP, with 173 yards 1 TD on 3 returns.

I can for one hope that garbage is the "least" they throw at that fool Prince. What an absolutely ridiculous, retarted idea it was to have Prince as the half time show. It was bad enough having that wimp Justin Timberlake there, but now that've hit a new low, very sad indeed.

bob- Very embarrasing. How old is this guy 60? Same with the Rolling Stones last year, too old. Mise well get a person to put himself in a box.

david- People are saying Peyton still hasn't completed his "legacy". What are they talking about, he threw for 49 TD's last year, 13th in yds, and is only a 10 year pro. Retarts.

I like your ending to the game, with Tank Johnson blocking Vinatieri's kick. In fact, the whole sequence sounds perfect, right down to the "Jerome Bettis fumble" and the "Ben Roethlisberger game saving tackle". It'd be pretty amazing if it actually played out that way.

jgrace- 12 You really never know. What's funny is that I heard people say that the Bears are overratted, but how can they be that if they make it to the the Super Bowl. And personally, I think Urlacher deserves it (Super Bowl) more than Manning.

The ending was great. Could it possibly get any more ironic if Peyton plays bad in the biggest game of his life and Vinatieri misses the game winning field goal?

Now that would be a story.

Funny stuff.

Thanks for the comment rivjo. And peyton is muttering like he did when Vanderjackt missed it last year, "He missed it."

Prince scares me, he sorta looks like Michael Jacksons younger brother who didn't change to white.

On with the game, good stuff. Rex doesn't have to do much to win this game, just don't blow it. Go Bears!

I'm not one of those guys that knows a thing about scandals (Bonds, Duke,). I'm a simple minded guy, just here to talk about sports. I have suffered some pain, as I'm a Detroit fan. I have suffered the highs this past decade, Wings and Pistons winning their respectable championships
, and the REALLY lows, Tigers of '03 and the Lions of basically forever. But the sky looks high for Detroit fans, with Tigers making the World Series this past year, but unfortunatley
Rod Marinelli didn't give the season I was begging for. MSU is in their rebounding season, not being ranked or really upsetting anyone (except for Texas) but Drew Neitzel is a future NBA player and he'll remind people of Steve Nash, a guy who can score, but is better at the passing game. Michigan sucks! Go Green!
