And Then There Were Four

Four teams left in the NFL.

I was sorely disappointed in the losses by Denver, how could they let that player get behind them like that. I was also disappointed in the loss by Seattle. They came back from 20 points down only to lose in the last 30 seconds. How could they not stop them, they have a good defense.

Some good games this weekend, and now there is only four teams remaining. In the AFC we have the Baltimore Ravens heading to Gillette stadium to play the New England Patriots. In the NFC it will be the San Francisco 49ers heading to Atlanta to play the Falcons.

Do the Ravens have the desire to win for Ray Lewis' last season?

Are the Brady led Patriots a force to be reckoned with?

Can Kaepernick have another huge came and the 9ers overcome the west to east travel jinx?

Is it finally time for Matty Ice to win one for the Falcons?

Who will it be between these four? Here is who I think will be playing in the Super Bowl.

The New England Patriots versus the San Francisco 49ers. With the Patriots winning the Super Bowl!!

Pennant Races

September is a time for crisp cool air, back to school, football and of course baseball pennant races. With the introduction of one more wildcard team it has opened the door for more and more races. The usual suspects are still in the races but we have some newcomers this year.

If you live in Baltimore baseball is relevant in September again. If you live in the DC area (I know, Baltimore and DC are only a tobacco spit away from each other) you probably weren't alive the last time Washington was in a pennant race. Then there are the no name kids from Oakland playing moneyball again knocking on the door of a wildcard birth.

What are some intriguing World Series match-ups?

Baltimore vs Washington - Wouldn't that be interesting in a year when Obama and Romney are battling for the nations capital.

How about another bay battle San Francisco vs Oakland, minus the earthquake this time.

Could Texas do it for the third straight year. Are the Reds ready to create a new "Big Red Machine" and are the Chicago southsiders ready to unleash more homeruns in the post season. Never forget the Bronx Bombers. Of course I can't forget the defending champs St Louis and there is always Atlanta and the pitching of Tampa.

Who is your favorite? What match-up would you like to see?
