It's time again for the annual gridiron spectacle. No, not the Super Bowl, but the 19th Scripps Howard Celebrity Super Bowl Poll. The rich and famous from movies, television, sports, politics and pop culture predict the winner of Sunday's Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and New York Giants.
JACK NICKLAUS, golfer: I just feel the Patriots are a little too strong.
JOAN JETT, rock musician: Giants 35-21. New York is on a roll.
ARNOLD PALMER, golfer: Giants 28-21. I see Eli Manning coming into his own and the coach (Tom Coughlin) is anxious to win a Super Bowl.
SERENA WILLIAMS, tennis player: Giants because of Eli Manning being the younger brother.
GEN. MIKE HAYDEN, director of the CIA: Giants 28-24. The spread favors the Pats, but careful intelligence work looks beyond the obvious.
MARTINA McBRIDE, country singer: Patriots 31-27.
DON RICKLES, comedian: Patriots 21-12. Brady is too good to be beaten.
PHYLLIS DILLER, comedian: Patriots 30-10. A rout. I love routs.
MAMIE VAN DOREN, legendary sex symbol: Patriots 28-7. The Patriots are a cross between a symphony orchestra and a steamroller. Every player plays his part as they flatten their opponents.
HALEY JOEL OSMENT, actor (has picked the past eight Super Bowl winners): Patriots 34-20. I will be cheering on the Giants. Unfortunately, I am going to have to go with the undefeated team this year.
MITT ROMNEY, presidential candidate: Patriots 28-14. Three words: Brady, Maroney, Moss.
SEN. EDWARD KENNEDY, D-Mass.: Tom Brady and the Patriots are pumped for this one. They're ready for anything the Giants throw at them.
MICHAEL BLOOMBERG, mayor of New York: Giants 31-28. I think the best team will win, and that's clearly the Giants.
SCOTT ADAMS, Dilbert cartoonist: Giants 37-21. Eli Manning has more incentive to win because (he's) trying to make his parents love him more (than) they love his older brother. That's a bigger incentive than Tom Brady's desire to win yet another ring and bed yet another supermodel.
TONY SIRICO, actor, The Sopranos: Giants 35-31.
DANA DELANY, actress, Desperate Housewives: Patriots! Because I'm a big fan of Bill Belichick.

RODNEY ATKINS, country singer: Patriots 42-17. Their offense is outta control.
GORDON CLAPP, actor: Patriots 41-10. They know how to win.
JERRY MATHERS, Beaver on Leave It to Beaver: Patriots 30-27. I would love to see the perfect season.
PAUL NEWMAN, actor: As an Easterner, it's delicious having two great "local" teams. I wish it were the days before overtime. Then, I'd root for a tie.
JOANNE WOODWARD, actress: Patriots 28-14. I'm loyal to New England, and I'd pick them even if they weren't favored due to a superstar named Brady.
MARK CUBAN, owner, Dallas Mavericks: Giants 28-16. I think Brady is dinged up and not playing well. The Giants have gotten better and are playing with great confidence.
DENNIS FARINA, actor: Giants 27-24. Eli Manning finally found his way as a quarterback and is ready to explode.
RANDY JACKSON, American Idol judge: New England Patriots by a touchdown, trust me.

ELISABETH SHUE, actress: Patriots 31-20. History seems to be on their side.

BILL O'REILLY, Fox host: Giants 31-30. Destiny.
REV. JAMES DOBSON, Focus on the Family: Patriots 34-24. How can a thinking person pick against a team that is 18-0?
