This is not my prediction, just how I'd like to see the evening go.

First off, I will ignore several hours of pre-game nonsense while I work in the garage. When game time finally rolls around, I want to see the Pats win the coin toss. They will undoubtedly elect to kick so that they can start the second half with the ball.

I'd like to see a close, competitive game for the first half. 14-14 or 21-21 at the half would be great, or nothing more than a seven point spread going either way, just to keep it interesting. I don't care how Seattle scores their points, but I want all New England touchdowns scored on the ground. In fact, I don't care if they don't even attempt pass all day, just to give the Deflategate people something to suck on.

At halftime, I will watch Katy Perry in High Definition, hoping all the while for a truly epic wardrobe malfunction.

In the second half, I want the Pats to return the opening kick for a touchdown, the Seahawks to fumble the subsequent kickoff, the Pats to recover and run it in again. I'm not a huge Patriots fan, but I want them to win so people can continue to whine about deflated footballs for another 20 years. I hope that they continue to run up the score so that by the time 9 pm rolls around, it will be such a blowout that I can watch Downton Abbey uninterrupted.

Enjoy the game.

FYI, deflated balls are just as good for running backs as they are for QBs and receivers.

I can't imagine that there will be any out of spec equipment at tomorrow's game, or that Bill Belichek will have any new creative interpretations of the rules to try either.

I'm just looking forward to the whole family wearing Patriots gear and pissing off all of our neighbors tomorrow night. Until then, I'll be working to get my sub 1k winter assault vehicle prepped for our midwest mini-snowpocalypse event. Payback for all of those miserable years in the 80s when the Pats were worse than the Browns.

I predict Ditka will finally unveil his time machine and from it, the 85 Bears emerge and will single handedly destroy both teams.

Don't have a dog in this fight, just looking for some good old slugfest football w/o any drama... and there will be plenty of pre-game drama, just gonna skip that.

i hope there is some sort of a technical difficulty that makes the field slide outside the stadium during the game, because that one does that for some reason..

Uh...Sunday evening? I'll be getting kids showered, helping with homework and making sure they are ready for the school in the morning. Evening though it's looking like a possible snow day with the current weather prediction.

Oh..I might pull up the youtube channel to watch the commercials.

Yeah, it would be so much better for me if the game came on this afternoon. If I thought I could avoid the internet, tv, radio, emails and friends conversations I would just DVR it and watch it Monday afternoon. I guess folks who live in Hawaii get it at a good time.

More interested in the commercials than the game, how about 10 years of Bud commercials?

I'm hoping, in the first few minutes of gameplay, teams that more people care about take the field and make this interesting. Eagles vs. Raiders anyone?

Curse you! He should be jailed for his crimes and the team kicked out of the NFL! Go Seahawks!

Like most people not from New England, I will be rooting for the Seahawks.

I think this is probably pretty accurate.

However, I have a feeling that the Patriots are going to be under the confetti in the end.

In reply to Tactical Penguin:

I was working for the 2005 super bowl, you know the one where Seattle was robbed and the Stealers were given the game, I guess for old times' sake. I didn't watch the game until about two months after it happened and even knowing the eventual outcome it was hard to watch with all the terrible calls. Hoping that whatever happens tonight, the best team wins and the game doesn't turn on bad calls by the refs.
