Bill Simmons made the same four picks for this past weekend... is this a sign of parity in the NFL or idiocy on the Internet?

How great was it seeing Chad Johnson basically crying at the end of the game... Or seeing the look of dis-belief on Belicheck\'s face w/ his stupid pom pom hat...

Is worth mentioning that Rex Ryan didn\'t get a single vote for NFL Coach of the Year?

i\'m sure he would have gotten a few if they waited until after the season was over (like they should do)

On a side note - why are they playing the pro bowl a week before the super bowl?

Besides blaming the loss on the chargers choking, how about giving the jets D some credit...

3 for 4 this weekend. Glad I made up for my terrible picks last week.

Jets D looks mighty impressive.. Colts are going to have to ATTACK the rookie qb from the get-go, make him **** up, get in his head, and let the master control a very good defense. Jets D is very good, I\'ll take Peyton Manning though. But who the **** knows, this is the NFL. Any given Sunday.

Pfffft how does the defense have anything to do with those 2 missed field goals(I\'ll give him the miss from 57 yards) by one of the most accurate kickers in the NFL ie. hadn\'t missed one in 69 consecutive tries from inside the 40?

Whatever. Enjoy it for the week.

i\'ll root for the jets over the colts, but in the end i\'m going NFC all the way. don\'t really care who wins, saints or vikings, the NFC champ is my superbowl pick.

The Who\'s Pete Townshend has revealed that the band\'s upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance will feature a "compact medley" of their signature classic-rock anthems.

"We\'re kinda doing a mashup of stuff," the guitarist tells Billboard. "A bit of \'Baba O\'Riley,\' a bit of \'Pinball Wizard,\' a bit of the close of \'Tommy,\' a bit of \'Who Are You,\' and a bit of \'Won\'t Get Fooled Again.\' It works -- it\'s quite a saga. A lot of the stuff that we do has that kind of celebratory vibe about it -- we\'ve always tried to make music that allows the audience to go a bit wild if they want to. Hopefully it will hit the spot."

The annual Super Bowl half time concert has become one of rock\'s highest profile gigs, with U2, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Prince, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney each taking the stage in recent years. The medley format is not unusual for artists with such a deep catalogue - Springsteen and Prince took a similar approach.
