NFL Super Bowl XL Update

With everything that has been going on in the world of tickets I have been having a real hard time finding the time to write my blog. Now that Thanksgiving is upon us things have slowed a little and here I am again to update you on the current Tradesports.com and Ticketreserve.com prices for AFC/NFC conference champions and fan forwards for the Super Bowl. A lot has changed since I last updated you as you will see in the prices below.

AFC

Indianpolis Colts TS 57/58 Fan Forwards $595

Pittsburgh Steelers TS 9.5/11.5 Fan Forwards $300

New England Patriots TS 8.5/9.9 Fan Forwards $215

Denver Broncos TS 10/11 Fan Forwards $220

NFC

Atlanta Falcons TS 7.5/8.5 Fan Forwards $170

Seattle Seahawks TS 26.5/27.5 Fan Forwards $350

Carolina Panthers TS 18.5/20.5 Fan Forwards $350

New York Giants TS 10/11.9 Fan Forwards $250

Dallas Cowboys TS 13.0/16.5 Fan Forwards $180

Good thing we have not gone long the Falcons, Eagles, or Patriots this year. Instead we have gone long heavy on the Colts at lower than market prices, the Giants at lower than market prices, and the Bengals at around current market value. The Cowboys have been coming on strong, and the Seahawks appear to be the favorite in the NFC. We were trying to buy the Seahawks when the market was much lower and missed them and now they seem to be getting away from us.

Adios!

Such a sorry blogger

Howdy People. I must say that I am sorry for being so absent in writing my daily blog. I must confess that when we started the blog it was in our slowest months of the year and it was easy for me to rant and rave every day, but now we are in the beginning of our busiest season and I am finding it harder and harder to make the time to write.

THE BALANCE OF POWER IS CHANGING!

Indianapolis 40 New England 21

Peyton Manning was 0-7 against the Patriots in New England until last night. The Patriots have now fallen to a record of 4-4, while the Colts have moved on to 8-0.

The Eagles continue to have problems with T.O., and some of you may recall that during training camp I blogged that due to the problems with T.O. that the Eagles would not make it back to the Super Bowl this year. After last weeks happenings and the Eagles loss to the Redskins I am even more sure of that prediction. The NFC looks like a race between the Falcons and the Panthers with a very hot Giants team threatening.

Below you will find current prices for Tradesports contracts for the AFC/NFC championships and prices for Super Bowl fan fowards next to them. The Tradesports contracts are 0-100 contracts on each team winning their conference, if you buy the Colts at 50 and the Colts win the AFC your contracts expire at a value of 100 so you double your money. Conversely, if the Colts lose in the AFC Championship game your contracts would expire at a value of 0. Fan Forwards are contracts on each team making the Super Bowl, but here if your team makes it you are granted the right to buy Super Bowl tickets at face value($600). So if you buy the Colts at $500 per contract and they make it to the Super Bowl and you buy your tickets for $600 your in the seats at $1100 total.

AFC

Indianapolis Colts TS 55/58 Fan Forwards $500

Pittsburgh Steelers TS 12/14 Fan Forwards $325

New England Patriots TS 8.1/9 Fan Forwards $300

NFC

Atlanta Falcons TS 21/22 Fan Forwards $190

Seattle Seahawks TS 19/19.1 Fan Fowards $200

Carolina Panthers TS 18/20 Fan Forwards $345

New York Giants TS 13/15.4 Fan Forwards $325
