For me there is only one sport that can excite me: American Football; regardless whether it is College Football (especially the supreme Nittany Lions) or professionals (where my lost heart beats for the 49ers).
Leading up to Super Bowl XLIV on 7 February, the AFC and NFC champions will be decided from this weekend's blockbuster match-ups:
AFC Championship Game / Saturday 23 January
NEW YORK JETS vs
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
NFC Championship Game / Sunday 24 January
MINNESOTA VIKINGS vs
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
My bets are on the Vikings and Colts (but I would like to see the Jets win). For Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre this might be his very last shot at a Super Bowl win, and who would want to deny it to him, at age 40? It will not be easy to dismiss the Saints who have had a stellar season so far. The showdown in the NFC will be the most exciting game of the season. After that, even the Super Bowl itself will be the anti-climax.
There is exciting news for this 49ers fan:
The San Francisco 49ers will play the Denver Broncos next season at Wembley Stadium, the fourth straight year the NFL will stage a regular-season game in the British capital. The 49ers will be listed as the home team for the Oct. 31 game. Guess who will be in attendance among the crowd of 81,000 ... LOL
