Links

Just a few things I wanted to share with everyone. The first is easily my favorite part of every year's Super Bowl pregame coverage: Dr. Z's position-by-position breakdown of both teams. An absolutely invaluable resource for anyone who wants to know both teams' real strengths and weaknesses, even though he's picking the Giants this year for some reason.

Next, the Onion had an hilarious article spoofing hardcore sports fans. Um, I'm sure they were talking about everyone but me.

But mostly I wanted to mention the Onion as a segue to their awesome presidential candidate profiles, just in case you haven't seen them yet.

It seems odd that he would give the overall positional advantage to the Pats but then predict a Giants victory.

Yeah, it is, but here's Z's previously-written defense of that pick.

Okay, that first attempt at a link didn't work. Try:

look's like Dr. Z was right... and your predictions?

Mike said...

Impressive, Joe...by the way, who exactly did you pick before the game? Given your pretended Boston roots, it had to be the Patriots, right? Too bad you didn't write it down anywhere...
