Championship Edition #2

It's that time of year again.  In a couple of days it is time for the Superbowl.  Last year I bought a  jumbo pack of Topps Football cards and figured I would see if I could predict the winner of the game with them.  And I did.  So I figured I would give it a try again this year.

In case anyone is wondering, I am voting along conference lines.  the Vikings are in the NFC (as are the Cowboys and Redskins, in fact only the Raiders are in the AFC)  I am cheering for the Vikings West,also known as the Seahawks.  (Think about it.  when people leave the Vikings, apparently they go to the Seahawks.  Dante Culpepper, Sydney Rice, Percy Harvin.  All went to the Seahawks,)

Like last year, each card earns that team's conference (AFC or NFC) a point.  Cards for the Broncos or Seahawks earn them 2 points.  Inserts will count only if a tie breaker is needed.

NFC (11)
AFC (8)
Arizona CardinalsReggie Wayne (Colts)
Charls Johnson (Panthers)Coby Fleener (Colts)
Michael Bush (Bears)Chad Henne (Jaguars)
Detroit LionsBarkevious Mingo (Browns)
Lane Johnson (Eagles)Landry Jones (Steelers)
Zac Stacy (Rams)Jacob Tamme (Broncos)
Kenny Stills (Saints)Elvis Dumervil (Ravens)
Ryan Nessib (Giants)
Kyle Long (Bears)
Cliff Avril (Seahawks)
Gridiron Legends--Eric Dickerson

Things are looking good for the Vikings West...I mean Seahawks.  Even if you include the insert, they are winning.  Lets see what the other half of the Jumbo has.

NFC (19)
AFC (15)
Tony Romo (Cowboys)Johnathan Joseph (Texans)
Casey Hayward (Packers)Geno Atkins (Bengals)
Green Bay PackersLuke Joeckel (Jaguars)
Matt Ryan (Falcons)D.J. Hayden (Raiders)
Patrick Peterson (Cardinals)Mike Gilliselee (Dolphins)
DeAngelo Williams (Panthers)Erick Decker (Broncos)
Theo Riddick (Lions)
Jonathan Franklin (Packers)
Future Legends--Giovani Bernard
1959 Mini--Ndamukong Suh
Legend In The Making--Eli Manning
1000 Yard Club--Wes Welker

No Vikings, and far too many Packers, but it looks like the cards are saying the Seahawks will win.  Just a couple more days to find out if they go 2-0

(No pics for this post yet.  The winning side will have some pics added on Sunday)
