Are you Ready for some Football - Super Bowl
Just over 12 hours left to game time. Can we all survive the pre game hype.
Best defense against the best offense.
Are you ready for some football

Surely you mean the Raiders' D?
If so, it's like this:
Buccs' O: #24
Raiders' D: #11

I think this stat is a little deceiving, as the Buc's "O" really came on the last few regular season games, as well as in the playoffs. A 24th Ranking is not really representative of what they are capable of currently. And of course Gruden knows the Oakland defense inside and out: I expect the Bucs to put up some big numbers today!
That said, I'm hoping for a good game more than anything else: maybe not coming down to the last play like the Rams two Super Bowls of the last few years, but something that'll go deep into the 4th Qtr before its decided! It'd be a fitting end to a season that has been so exciting!

The Raiders D is also much better than that. You forget that most of the passing yards they give up is when they are already leading by double digits and teams are just passing in order to keep up. Overall, the Raiders are the better team. I hope they win.

The Superbowl is actually being shown live here, which will be nice - although since it's on Channel5 we'll have to sit through adverts for Gay-Chat premium phone-lines during the breaks. It seems that UK advertisers think that American sport mostly appeals to lonely homosexuals.  
The Channel5 TV listings are also some interesting viewing:

/me is back and has just done far more rushing than the Raiders' offence is likely to do today.

I had a dream last night.
The final score will be
Raiders 24
Buccaneers 20
It has been foretold.
Normally, I'd root for a team like the Bucs, due to their sad history--back when they wore cremesicle orange, a gay, winking pirate on their helmets, and cleat marks on their chests. However, I simply can not bring myself to root for a team that has Keyshawn Johnson and Warren Sapp. Talk about an Axis of Evil.

I'm going for the Buccs, just because I really ought to root for somebody, and I like Gruden.
Besides, defense beats offense. Witness the OSU-Miami game.

Yep. Super Bowl is the biggest single event in the whole world . And it's so great I'm going to loose my mind and freak out!

I usually don't care about handmelon, but I have a friend who's a fan of the Buccaneers and is all excited now, so I'm for the Bucs too.

That's what I thought. If Kyle's statistics are right, that's almost one-sixth of the world's population, and the rest probably can't afford TVs... I guess I'm the only person in the world who does not want to see the Super Bowl.

Pretty much... since you're right, most people don't have the opportunity to watch TV..

Not necessarily. You are, however, probably the only person in the world who would go to a Super Bowl thread in order to say that you are not going to watch the Super Bowl.

yup 6 18 is correct-amundo but everyone talks about how gruden used to coach for the raiders and how he knews them and all.....trust me he is not going to change his game plan that got him this far just because of a team that he used to be with...the raiders have changed with his departure as well as he with his new team.
