    I have no time at all for the Sims but Madden sounds cool. I might be able to get the Dolphins to win something........ Indifferent

    I'm serious about the Dolphins, the coverage in the UK is pretty good and I've followed them since Superbowl XIX. It's been a some lean old years....... Sad

    Indifferent I would have to agree also...madden will be a clear winner....Being a Giants fan for 20 plus yrs we have had our ups and downs too! And even being the only team in NFL history to loose 6 games and still win the Superbowl....I'm not complaining! Hang in there Dave! Stick out tongue

    I just checked the odds for the 2008/09 season:

    100-1 Odds to win Super Bowl 43

    40-1 Odds to win the 2008-09 AFC Championship

     It's not looking good for this season either. Sad

     It's good that EA finally got on board with a big name seller of software like Handango.  Selling through carrier decks and their site is one thing, but Handango is a great one-stop shop.

    I rarely bet on sports, a couple of times a year at most. When I do I tend to bet against my team. That way if they lose at least I get something back. At these odds betting against them wouldn't be very profitable!
