Here we are almost at the finish line.

"Poor Bills, wide right AGAIN? For real?"

Indeed. Joing us now is a coach who knows thing or 2 about going to the Super Bowl, the dark lord himself, Mr. Bill Belichick, how ya doing coach?

"Sports Illustrated speculates that I'm pissed off that Arthur Blank doesn't know the power of the dark side. I couldn't possibly comment on trivalities like human emotions."

Right. So coach, word is you Altlanta didn't hire you and you are likely sitting out this season because no team wants to give you total control due to your recent poor track record in the NFL draft.

"The dark side is a pathway to many talents some find to be unnatural, making good draft choices is not of them appeartly. I really thought Tyquan Thornton was the ticket. And trading up in the 4th round to take a KICKER seemed like a no-brainer."

"Wow a kicker, is his foot made of gold?"

"Shut up! I had a few drinks, so many people gave me cases of champagne every time I won a SUPER BOWL, I gotta drink the stuff.

Careful, they sent too many cigars to Grant and that's how he died.

"I'm glad my Chargers gave total power to Jim Harbaugh instead."

"The idjit that's still supports Crapkernik? Good luck, tootz."

"Oh no, you mentioned his name, he's gonna show up now."

Don't worry, I told him we moved to Gaza.

I grew up near the great metropolis of NYC and could only get the few offered TV games. Waited for Howard Cosell on MNF to see the rest and that didn’t include everything. Relied on box scores in the local paper for football and baseball. The TV has now been turned off and only box scores remain.

Detroit and KC. I like upsets.

I've got the Chiefs in the first game. In part because of Mahomes record, out of 79 career pro starts he's only been the underdog 8 times and he's 6 - 2 straight up in those games.

Of course I'm picking The Lions because they don't quit and they have the most dangerous man in the NFL - Dan Campbell.

At least now I have no reason to waste my time and watch the Super Bowl.

Congratulations to Darkangel82 and Alas-Babylon!, the only two to get both Conference Champion picks correct.

Sorry for the delay in posting the final results, I've been dealing with a flooded basement, and more snow today. I know I know, I sound like I'm from California or Florida with the constant crying, actually I probably would be crying more if the Lions won rather than lost.

Finally some people posted their picks for last weekend that haven't been picking before, I usually try to include everyone who makes picks but I ran short of time.
