Transcript:
Arlo: Our usual Super Bowl bet?
Janis: Sure, who's playing?
Arlo: The Broncos and the Panthers!
Janis: That's a tough one! I like horsies and kitty cats!
Janis: I'll take the horsies and five!
Broncos because Peyton should get to finish his NFL career with a Superbowl win and before he went pro, he was a hugely popular among Tennessee Vols fans player who helped take the Vols to a national championship
I’ve been a Broncos and Colts fan since I was just a wee tyke, for much the same reason as Janis mentioned – I liked horses.We’ll have the game on at my house, probably, but we won’t be paying it a lot of attention.
Back in the 70s, the faculty at my HS tried to get this one teacher to get in on the football pool. For months if not years he resisted. Finally, he took a look at one week’s slip. He then bet on every furry animal on the sheet. As it happened, all the furry animals were playing all the other teams that week (e.g., Bears vs Jets, Lions vs Falcons, etc.). When the games were played, all his picks came in. Every.Last.One. His was the only perfect card. He declined to play in the pool after that. And the rest of the faculty happily left him alone.

I’m from California so I don’t have a vested interest in the outcome, I will watch but more for the commercials than the game.

I plump for the Panthers – though it is at an ungodly hour for us in India!

As much as I’d like to see Peyton go out (possibly) with a win, I think “a little dab will do ya!”

I think the ‘horsies’ will play catch up most of the game, and fail on their last drive losing to the ‘kitties’ by a score.

Just how is it that you know which way it has been fixed? And you can’t win by 3-1/2 points…

Janis actually got this one fairly close, but it was the horsies for 14.
