Hi everybody!  
   
 Here we are, the final game of the season, the big one, it's the Super Bowl! Coming to you from Houston, TX, the 14-2 New England Patriots face the 11-5 Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl 51 (I know I should write Roman numerals, but 'LI' just makes me think this is Super Bowl Long Island, and that's just distracting for me. Anyway...)!  
   
 Before I get to all the good stuff you're actually here for, I just wanted to say a genuine thanks to everyone who played this year, whether it was for one week or for all of them - without you friend, I wouldn't have an excuse to spend time in the office on espn.com without getting in trouble for doing so and for that I cannot thank you enough.  
   
 So, the good stuff. Make your picks before 5PM EASTERN ON SUNDAY (kick off is 6:30pm, there will be zero mercy on late entries) to win yourself various VIP day prizes; as always, we're going to be picking more than just the winner. Here's your challenge:  
   
 Pick the winner - 2 days  
 Pick the margin of victory - 2 days  
 Pick the MVP - 2 days  
   
 If you get all three, you'll get a bonus 4 days to make a round 10, because I like to spoil you guys. Have a great time however, wherever and with whoever you watch the game (surely some fortunate soul here actually has tickets? Do speak up), best of luck to our friends in and around both Atlanta and the New England area, and enjoy the game!
