Eagles Fan in 'Skins Land

The last week of real football is here! 

Uh, last week?  What about the Super Bowl? 

Oh, you mean a game played amid endless hype in a neutral stadium in warm weather?  For football fans, the game was meant to be played outdoors in whatever Mother Nature decides to throw at us.  Personally, I'm rooting for a surprise snowstorm in Glendale in two weeks.

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP -- New York Giants at Green Bay (-7.5).  The Packers coaching staff has a lot of WD-40 available for Brett Favre's bionic implants in case they seize and freeze while on the frozen tundra of Lambeau.  Pick: Packers, 21-13

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP -- San Diego at New England (-14.0).  If the Chargers run out of healthy starters this week, their backup plan is to wear special helmets with high-beams on the foreheads to blind Tom Brady when he drops back to pass.  Pick: Patriots, 33-10
