Like you're in a big game, i'm so unhappy i could cry...

This weekend, in addition the Snowpocalypse Part Deux, there's a lil old sporting event taking place in Miami, you may have heard of it, it's called the Super Bowl.

This year, it's the Indianapolis Colts vs. the New Orleans Saints. Let's take a look at several factors and see if we can come up with a prediction as to the winner.

1) Team record:
New Orleans Saints, 13-3; Indianapolis Colts, 14-2
Advantage: Colts

2) Previous Super Bowl Appearances:
Saints: 0; Colts: 3 (2 while in Baltimore, 1 while in Indianapolis)
Advantage: Colts

3) Head Coach experience:
Saints: Sean Payton: 4 years as head coach; Colts: Jim Caldwell, rookie
Advantage: Saints

4) Head Coach attractiveness:
Saints: 47 year old white man, youngish looking


Colts: 55 year old black man, baldish

Advantage: tie

5) Quarterback hotness
Saints: Drew Brees

Couldn't find a shirtless pic, but he has nice biceps.

Colts: Peyton Manning

Nuff said.
Advantage: Colts

6) Running Backs:
Saints: Reggie Bush=Hotness


Colts: Do they even HAVE a running game?
Advantage: Saints

7) Team Logo:
Saints: Fancy Fleur-di-lis, gold and black.


Colts: Plain horseshoe, blue and white.

Advantage: Saints.

Based on these factors, the result is Saints 3, Colts 3, 1 tie. So they're essentially tied. Since, like the Super Bowl itself, we can't have this end in a tie, I'll have to find a tie breaker. And Reggie Bush's hot chocolate sexiness is just the trump I was looking for.

Therefore, my prediction, based on these factors and the tie breaker, is that the New Orleans Saints will win, 34-31.

Although, this is just who I want to win. If I was putting money on it, I'd bet on the Colts.

OMG, I'm using that Reggie Bush picture in a post on Sunday. I'm going with the Saints because their other running back (I think, white guy, 30, cute) came out in favour of gay marriage in the US. So he gets kudos or speaking up in a pretty manly man sport. Oh and Saints have the way better logo. A horseshoe? How lame. Not that I'll watch at all.
