The most current event I think right now is the Super Bowl 46 that is coming up soon. I personally am voting for the ravens, not only because this is the last game that Ray Lewis is going to play, but also because the Ravens have a lot of skill. So do the 49’s, I can’t admit that they are bad because that would be lying. They are my second favorite football team so I wouldn’t care if one team won and the other lost. It’s a win win situation. For others though it seems that most of them are rooting for the 49ers, which I can see by their players being young and very fast, but the Ravens defense is a very tough one to get past that for sure. The Niner’s offense is even harder. It will be a very good game I think, but the Ravens have already beaten the Niners in the season, but I’m not sure we will be able to do it again. At least there will be no home advantages, like they both will have to be travelling the day before and that is an uncomfortable experience. Usually the home team has the advantage for that reason alone, but since it is in New Orleans, the Ravens will have to travel less and the Niners trip will take a long time. If you look at a picture of the New Orleans field, they field managers are painting the touchdowns purple and putting the Ravens logo so maybe the Niners will technically be the away team and the Ravens the home team. Since the Super  Bowl is such a large game, most of the people in America will be watching, I hope at least, and maybe they will vote for the Ravens or the Niners, but whoever wins, they get to tell each other good game.
