Gina:
I'll be betting on the Ravens since I'm from Maryland.

But now I live in California so if the 49ers win (which they most likely won't because when you add those two numbers you get 13 and 13 is an unlucky number), I'll give thanks for a really good nap.  :)

Patric:
LOL the pads and helmets are used as weapons and cause more injuries....its funny....back in the early days they wore leather helmets....with no face masks .....and less or no pads......and had less injuries

indianabob:
True about the pads, Patric.
However, I have heard from some older players that the older teams were made up of Farm Boys who wrestled hay bales and cattle before high school or college. Apparently the training coach had to give workouts to loosen them up rather than to build muscle which came naturally.

Just wondering, Indiana Bob
