Princess the Camel Picked Super Bowl XLIII Winning Steelers

Princess the Camel did it again.  The prognosticator of Popcorn Park Zoo, in choosing the Pittsburgh Steelers over the Arizona Cardinals, successfully picked the winner of Super Bowl XLIII.

In a game that went down to the wire and almost foiled Princess's prediction, the Steelers came from behind with about 2:38 left to play in the game,to defeat the Cardinal (and me) 27-23. 

Princess's record for picking the winner of NFL games this year finishes at a very impressive 17-5.

My record of picking winners on the other hand was not so good, out of the 11 games that made up this years NFL playoffs, my record was a dismal 3-8. 

The only pleasure that I receive from the outcome of this game, is in knowing that while the Cardinals did not emerge as winners of  Super Bowl XLIII, they did cover the point spread and as a result, I am now a few bucks richer than I was a few hours ago.

So lets hear it for the Pittsburgh Steelers, winners of their sixth Super Bowl title, the most out of any other team in the NFL.

It was a great NFL season, I already can't wait until the start of next season in order root for the Giants return to the big game.
