NFL Football Play-offs WK 1 2008 Picks

Are we ready for some surprises?  These seem like such easy picks, so I’ll probably get them wrong.  Vikings and Cardinals fans don’t seem willing or able to buy play-off tickets to their games, despite the fact they’re home games, and at least for the Cardinals fans, it’s the first time in Arizona Cardinals history that the team is even going to the play-offs.  They’re giving the impression they don’t think their teams will win – who wants to go to a game when you’re confident your team will lose?  I know I wouldn’t. 

I do believe the games will be challenging this weekend, though, and I think they’ll be pretty interesting.  Last year, no one expected the Giants to beat the Cowboys, or the Packers.  Or My Beloved Patriots.  *heavy sigh*  (No, I’m still not over it.)  Surprise, surprise.  So, Vikings and Cardinals fans, if you can manage it, go to the games and support your teams.  You just never know what might happen.  That’s why they play the games!
