I read and comprehend very well. And I dont think they do, I know they do.

Perhaps you should reread and highlight it all so you can better understand. To be more specific, "it doesn't mean they can do it again". And as to comparing teams, you should read the rest of it to better comprehend. Again, blind squirrels eat every once in awhile.

Now that the Steelers and Cards are out, I would pay to watch Roger Goodell have to hand the Lombardi Trophy to Sean Payton after that whole suspension dealio.

Dear God, not the Saints. Given the French influence in Louisiana, it's fitting that their starting QB has a Napoleon complex.

No 49ers either, for that matter. Being a Harbaugh is an inherent character flaw, and it was bad enough that one of them won the Super Bowl last year. I'm not in the mood for the other one to win one, and I sure as **** don't want another team to have six Lombardi Trophies.

And after all the crying that fans of the Seahawks (and all their sympathizers) did eight years ago, they don't deserve to celebrate a Super Bowl championship. The favorites seldom make it to the Super Bowl anymore anyway.

I'm predicting a Panthers/Chiefs Super Bowl.

Great stuff.

Napoleon complex? Don't think so. Bitterness to Goodell? Yeah.

49ers are a crap shoot.

After 8 years? Wow.

Chiefs are going nowhere. Won't be surprised to see them lose again to the Colts.

They're still bitter about Super Bowl XL eight years later, so **** 'em. If they're going to get bent out of shape because a couple of calls didn't go their way, then they not only lack fortitude, but they lack introspection as well. There are plenty of things the Seahawks could have done differently to put themselves in a better position to win that game, but it's much more convenient just to blame the refs for everything, which is why sore losers do it. Sore losers don't deserve to enjoy championships.

Thats what some Seahawks fans would be saying had those same calls gone the Seahawks way, and the Steelers had lost. 8 years would be nothing. It would go on forever for some Steeler fans.

I was even suprised at how long they've been doing well. They haven't had 5 wins or less since.... 1988. I WAS BORN IN 1988.
