NFL - 2012 - It's Playoff Time - Let's get ready to rumble...!

Here is my irrational, fanatic pro NY Giant pick.

NY Giants 30 3 TDs and 3 FGs [because of N. Eng. quality red zone defense]

New England 21

And of course the under; the over/under is 55.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Almost one billion dollars will be bet legally and illegally on this game. You can bet on almost anything, for example:

Kelly Clarkson - How Long Will it Take Her to Sing the National Anthem (From first note starts until she completes saying Brave) - the over/under is 1:35

Here is a betting website that has all the bizarre betting, including what color the gator aide dousing of the winning coach will be!

Oh crap, you mean the 49ers didn't make it! But they had the Honey Badger on their side!

I bet the first score will be a safety, not a touchdown or a field goal. I just have a feeling about it.

Then the same team will score a touchdown.

I predict 21-17, NY wins. But don't quote me on it, my record with this kind of thing sucks.

Clever these Floridians!

So far a great Super Bowl.

I tried to time the National Anthem with my cell phones stop watch and it was just about exactly 1:35 - by the time my eye hand coordination hit the stop button, it rested at 1:35:49 - it was that close!

Amazing - can you imagine betting on something like that!

NJ camel predicts Giants will win the Super Bowl

People use all sorts of ways to try to predict the winner of the Super Bowl: comparing regular season records, judging who looked stronger in the post-season run-up to the big game, or watching the betting lines from Las Vegas oddsmakers.

But the closest thing to a sure thing may come from a camel in New Jersey.

Princess, the star of New Jersey's Popcorn Park Zoo, has correctly picked the winner of five of the last six Super Bowls. She went 14 and 6 predicting regular season and playoff games this year, and has a lifetime record of 88-51.

Her pick this year: The New York Giants.

The Bactrian camel's prognostication skills flow from her love of graham crackers. Zoo general manager John Bergmann places a cracker and writes the name of the competing teams on each hand. Whichever hand Princess nibbles from is her pick. On Wednesday, she made her pick with no hesitation at all, predicting bad news for Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

Her only miscue in the big game was picking the Indianapolis Colts over the New Orleans Saints two years ago, indicating that even camels know it's generally risky to go against Peyton Manning.

Her best season was 2008, when she got 17 out of 22 games right, including correctly picking the Pittsburgh Steelers to win the Super Bowl.

Princess doesn't do point spreads. But she has nearly mastered the art of picking straight-up winners.

The cunning camel was once the personal pet of heiress Doris Duke, the only child of tobacco and electric energy tycoon James Buchanan Duke.

Doris Duke raised Princess and her sister Babe from youngsters, Bergmann said.

The pair of camels had their own barn, and spent summers at Duke's Rhode Island estate. During bad weather, they were put up in the solarium.

After Duke's death in 1993, the camels stayed on her estate in Hillsborough. Babe died several years ago, leaving just Princess.

When Princess' caretaker was about to retire, the estate offered Princess to Popcorn Park Zoo, which took her in. The zoo cares for abandoned and abused animals.

Adam, thanks for this delightful story. Since the sad demise of Paul the World Cup Octopus there has been a dearth of clairvoyant creatures in the sports world.

I don't think there are any Stanley Cup beavers, moose or polar bears. The residents of the Toronto Zoo seem more interested in eating their young (literally) than showing a decent interest in the national game. We might be getting a panda though, and I expect Helmet Head to have it thoroughly briefed when he gets back with it from China.

So let's see, I picked the Bruins and they won the Stanley Cup and I also picked, not here, the World Series winner and now, the Triple Crown, the Trifecta, the hat trick, the Grand Slam...

Bow down OLers to the all powerful predictor of sports!

And humble too!

But you are a human predictor. Well....yeah, human. I'm pretty sure. What we need is one with animal instincts...oh, never mind.

No, indeed. I could not even open the "Eek" video. Due to Respectability of course, not the computer block.

Somewhere in the Bay of Fundy Lloyd the Lobster is languishing, waiting to be discovered . He knows the Leafs will take it in 6 games, and hopes someone will ask him about it before he is eaten.

The catch that won the Super Bowl - perfect - drags both feet to stay in bounds - just like we do in street football!

Did anyone else think the Madonna halftime show was gaudy? Big production tinsel?

Michael

Michael:

I did, but I expected it because Madonna had to surround herself with a lot of activity because she can't move like she used to.

As halftime shows go, it was pretty good.

VIDEO: 'My husband cannot f--king throw the ball and catch the ball at same time'...

Yo! Bitch...it is a team effort!

Maybe if hubby hadn't gotten a safety on the first play you might have won!

Anytime you want to suit up and run a play we could oblige you.

Congratulations, Adam.

I predict that Giant fans will now refrain from demanding that Coughlin be fired until at least week three of of the 2012 season.

Precisely Dennis. I have rarely been that kind of a fan and in this case, the man has done a great job everywhere he has been. However, the sometimes addled NY sports "fan" makes this place the toughest place to play and coach.

Did you here that in Boston, someone drove to the Boston Commons and dumped cartons of Butterfingers bars with a sign saying the Chris Welker Award! Damn they are getting close to the NY psychosis.

Thanks for the congrats Dennis.

Bradying just like Tebowing...

“Bradying” seems to be the latest meme to hit the internet. While “Bradying,” a subject is shown sitting on the floor, legs stretched out, with their hands folded between their legs. The head is bowed.
