Bills-Falcons Super Bowl?

I'm catching up on my NFL news today and I came across this tidbit in a Don Banks article:

Did you see where golfer/crack prognosticator Phil Mickelson picked Buffalo and Atlanta to meet in this season's Super Bowl? Don't snicker. Lefty put his money where his mouth is before the 2000 season, wagering in Vegas that the Baltimore Ravens would win that year's Super Bowl. He collected $600,000 on that one. The next year he correctly foresaw the Arizona Diamondbacks' World Series title.

The complete text is in the article under the heading "Mickelson makes his picks". Anyone who knows me knows I would love to see the Bills in the big game. In this free-agency age, I think they'd actually have more of a shot at winning it than in their other trips there.

Comments

I cannot understand ow anyone cannot root for the Buffalo Bills organization. They were my gutsy pick for the Super Bowl last season. Why? I just felt like picking them, they lacked a defense big time though. I think they may of been missing a running game too, but boy did Drew put up some numbers.

The big year I pulled for them is when Flutie led them to a 12-4 recored but their moron coach, I am drawing a blank on his name, benched Flutie and of course Buffalo lost. Anyway, I think it would be cool if Buffalo gets a title.
