    Your'e right. I stand corrected. Still impressive nonetheless

    I'd say that we're beating a dead horse here, except that the horse proved all too lively. :'(

    The quarterback in the Puppybowl could have done a better job than Grossman.

    No, according to that logic if all players are there it's fair.

    Do you see Serena playing Sharapova in the rain?

    What if when John Stockton and Karl Malone gave The Bulls a run for their money, and right in the final seconds Michael Jordan slipped on the court or the ball slipped out of his hands?

    And they say, hey, it's your fault for not being prepared for the rain.

    What kind of retarded sports logic is that?

    Such crybaby excuses are typical of partisan fans. The Colts handled the weather conditions better, just as the Bears handled the wintery conditions better than the Saints in the NFC Championship Game. That's part of football, so stop your whining.

    Your logic is flawed. (American) Football is always played irregardless of snow or rain, cold or wind therefore your point is moot.

    Tennis cancels under these conditions primarily for the health of their players. In football, you are allowed to wear cleats, but in tennis, on a hard, wet court making many quick changes of direction, it becomes merely a matter of time before you fall or worse yet twist an ankle.

    Exactly. The weather might have favored the Bears' style of offense, and seemed so after the first Colts series. However, Manning quickly showed that he could handle a greased pigskin, while the Bears defense was put upon by the train Rex.

    The Bears were out played and out coached. I wish it had been different.

    It's still stupid sports logic. I'm not even talking about the SB game. That's water on the bridge.

    Football has plenty of stupid sports logic.

    Like how it plays the most important game of the year in the rain, how instead of playing in Chicago or Indiana(Where both cities are familiar with the weather, cuz that weekend it was equally cold in both places), they play in some completely unrelated city, which was supposed to be sunny, and then rains.

    And look at this

    World Series=best of 7
    NBA Finals=best of 7
    Superbowl=Overhyped event with commercials and Janet Jackson tits, that plays only ONE GAME. And it's not like their tired from playing 82 games like basketball, PLUS 4-7 for each playoff round.

    And the only reason it has such a high viewer base is because of the superhypedness of the event, and the country being predominantly white.

    If this was Africa or Asia or blacks didn't make up 10% of the country, the NBA Finals would rape it's viewer base in every way.
