I am a Jets fan. I still have scars from the Bills going to Super Bowls.
This is why I like NFL fans > college fans. None of that "division pride" crappola.
Are you kidding? the Harbowl? Brother against brother! What a great story line. Yea, it'll be way overblown by the media, of course. But thats why I dont watch any of the media crap leading up to the SB. I'm actually looking forward to this SB much more than most recent SB's. Pats v. G-men?....meh. I'm just glad the Pats are not in it. They've had their timeKap is exciting to watch. Ray Ray's goin out playin in a SB. Flacco is throwing the ball well. This should be a hard hitting, fun game to watch. As someone who has always hated the niners, it pains me to root for them. But, I cant help it. I'm a big Kap fan. I'm very impressed with how this young man has overcome adversity in the playoffs. Dudes a mercenary!'devouredbychaos said:
I dunno about that. College rivalries are awesome, and most go back much further the NFL rivalries. As an Oregon State Alum, I root for anyone playing the ducks. Nothing like the atmosphere at a "big rivalry" college football game.This is why I like NFL fans > college fans. None of that "division pride" crappola.
As a duck alumn, I can honestly say I don't recall the last time I cared about a beavers game outside of the civil war. The "rivalry" is equivalent to the hammer versus the nail.I dunno about that.

He's probably talking about the LHUCKian and SECian trait of rooting for an entire conference.I dunno about that. College rivalries are awesome, and most go back much further the NFL rivalries.

Or if the weather is bad, he can stay in for an extended session of Trap the Clown with his Tom Brady blow-up doll.'Raider Nation said:
Bunch of bitter Seahawks fans in here, too. If only we had a way to separate the best teams.You gotta love the loser patriot fans after their last loss of the season. Happens every year
Best? Don't think so.Any team can get on a roll at any point during the season. Certainly, you don't truly believe this Baltimore team is better than Atlanta, Green Bay, Houston or Seattle. Do you?Let's be real...Baltimore fans were excited their team made the playoffs but gave them no real shot at beating Denver on the road.Bunch of bitter Seahawks fans in here, too.

The fact that having sports-hatred for the two teams involved is actually a pretty strong indicator of football fandom.
No question. But you hate a team so much you won't watch the Super Bowl? Really?
No, I'm not in the "won't watch it" camp. I just think it's going to be intolerable to watch because one of those teams will win, not because of the quallity of the game.No question. But you hate a team so much you won't watch the Super Bowl? Really?
My dear Seahawk fan, I am sorry to hear of your problem. Maybe this will help?
Wow, I just don't see this at all. I can't get enough of this story, and I don't give a crap about either team.The odds against two brothers being NFL head coaches at the same time are enormous, and the odds against them meeting in the Super Bowl are astronomical. Jim can be a bit of a baby, sure. But that's the competitor in him. John seems like a nice guy, and their parents seem like great people as well.And just imagine if Indiana U wins it all in basketball. (Tom Crean married Jim and John's sister).
Lol.
Yes, and I hate dome football in general but a real shame these teams in particular have to play in a dome. This would have been an awesome matchup for the New York SB next year.
Raiderfan has abused Hawk fans for years. NOW is the time to be in the AFCW.
Yea, the ducks have owned us in football recently. But your arrogant "duck alum" post is ignorant and very short sighted. The rivalry goes beyond football and has been going since long before you and me. The ducks are also prolly gonna have NCAA sanctions on them for their recruiting. Chip carroll....i mean kelly bailed. Myabe the ducks shouldnt cheat with their dirty phil knight money. haha. Oh and dont even get me started on their stupid uniforms! This year the Beavs are gonna take the Civil War!! Maybe that'll shut up the duck bandwagon for a few minutes.As a duck alumn, I can honestly say I don't recall the last time I cared about a beavers game outside of the civil war.

I'm happy for it.Two teams that frequently rely on their defense to win lots of games. Love it!
Thanks for the help, but I'm good. Just because I don't like either team in the SB doesn't make me depressed. Just makes me discerning.
Good luck to your team, gb! I hope they do well next year. The city of Albany / Corvallis could use a little recognition. Flew in to PDX from the east coast this weekend, and my wife, looking at the smattering of orange shirts in the gift shops, said, "What's with all the Syracuse presence in Oregon?"'Manster said:Yea, the ducks have owned us in football recently.

Did she expect to see cowboys and indians riding horses too? Syracuse???? in Beaver country? Thats rich! Hopefully she didnt talk to too many people in Oregon, for your sake. Coulda been embarrassing. Did you explain to her that Oregon State actually won back to back college world series a few years back? I'm sure the response would have been something like, "whats the college world series?"Good luck to your team, gb! I hope they do well next year.

Don't worry, you can get another USC QB that stuck around for a flop of a senior year and dropped his draft status by about 5-10 spots! Plus, he;ll fit right in as a Bible thumping, gay marriage hating conservative. Win-Win if you ask me.
Sign me up. We're all bible thumping, gay marriage hating conservatives out here!
Why do you think I left?!
Not enough coffee shops, dudes with flannel shirts and men with hair covering their eyes and dark eyeliner?Edit: My notebook needs an update.
I left in 93, there was plenty of flannel there. And I only wore eyeliner when I went to punk shows.
Who wears ####### EYELINER at a punk show?
I take it you've never seen Another State of Mind. I'll give you a hint: punks.
Patriots' fans loved Steve Grogan and Drew Bledsoe before Brady and Gino Cappelletti before them. You know very little about the history of the team. Perhaps you only recognized the team in the Brady era but we don't live in your world.
C'mon, you think he's going to take this obvious bait? He's got gigantic blinders on and isn't going to acknowledge any failures.
