C'mon man. You know this. The talking heads create controversy to get ratings so they can sell advertising. That's all it's about.

If they do the obvious thing and pick the Saints across the board then who's going to get angry at whom? Maybe they rile up Canton and a few Niners fans, but that's about it.

If they do the thing that is controversial then they get us all worked up and people jump on the internet and call such and such and so and so an idiot and people tune in to hear the idiot say the next ignorant thing.

The short answer is money. LOL

Danno and Rugby Saint II like this.

C'mon Man...

It was basically a rhetorical question, but I like your answer. And Zooey is growing on me big time. I totally get it now.

The real question is: Who is Zoey picking in this game?
