NFL Playoffs 2008

Hello everybody,

and happy new year 2008!! As you know, the new year means that the NFL regular season is over.
And you should know that this year the New England Patriots ( I think now, you know that team! ) made an incredible performance being undefeated during the regular season (16-0). That didn't happened since 1972 with the Miami Dolphins (14-0).
And now, it's time for the playoffs!


12 NFL teams are going to do their best to go to University of Phoenix stadium on the 3rd of February to play in the Superbowl XLII.

Just have a look at this great stadium, home of the Arizona Cardinals, which will seat 73,000 for this game.

Superbowl XLII


This game will be played on the 3rd of February 2008 at 6:18 pm (East Time) in Unviversity of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Tom Petty and the Heartbrakers will perform during the half-time. I think it will be a wonderful show. Mary J. Blige and Maroon5 will also perform during the festivities around the Superbowl. In fact, their are parties the day after the game and just after the game.

I hope you will enjoy the playoffs and the Superbowl. In France you can watch the two conference's finals and the Superbowl on France 4 and France 2.
My pronostic is a Pats victory against the Green Bay Packers. And I'm sure that the MVP will be Tom Brady.

Bye bye and GO PATRIOTS!
