Who’s in the Superbowell this year?
Baltimore beat Dallas - Jim O’Brien field goal- big argument over whether a forward pass was touched twice by the offense.
A bunch of Nick Gurrs
I predict that Taylor Swift will cast a spell at the 2 minute warning allowing the Chiefs to pull out another improbable win.
I go by coaches. Hank Stram, Dick Vermiell, Vince Lombardi, and a few players—Dandy Don, and a host of others. Won’t be watching this year. But who cares?
My favorite one was Rams over Titans. Great Team!
My second Favorite was Super Bowl XIV, where the Steelers pulled away from the Rams, but it was fun for a while.
I have a warm spot for the Giants ruining the Patriots “perfect” season. Not only were they not the greatest team of all time, they weren’t even the best that year! (heh-heh-heh)
Interestingly, the Giants are the only NFL team to win a Super Bowl in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. It will probably take a miracle for them to win in the 2020s.
I was listening to last minutes of the Rams-Titans game on the radio. I believe it was John Dockery? doing the playbyplay. When the Rams stopped the Titans at the one or two yard line he got very loud and said “this is the greatest game I’ve ever seen”. It was a good game.
The most memorable Super Bowl for me was Super Bowl I. I could have gone to see it—tickets were only abut $15 and it wasn’t sold out. In those days, games that didn’t sell out were blacked out on local TV stations, so Super Bowl I was blacked out in the Los Angeles area—what one Disc jockey on Boss Radio 93 KHJ called the Super Blackout. Publications such as the Beat, the monthly newsletter of rival station KRLA published articles on how to build a Super Bowl antenna out of a coat hanger so as to get the broadcast from San Diego. As it was, I listened to the game on the car radio.
I was rooting for the Kansas City Chiefs because Kansas City is closer to LA than Green Bay and because the star USC Trojan tailback Mike Garrett was playing for the Chiefs. However, Garret and his crew couldn’t overcome the Packers and lost 35-10.
” big argument over whether a forward pass was touched twice by the offense.”
I remember that and remember when they changed the rule a couple of years later because of that play.
I’m not going to pick any since the Lions haven’t been in any of them.
I do enjoy watching the NFL Films Super Bowl IV.
“65 Toss Power Trap....Yeah!”
Best Super Bowl ever, my team lost. Patriots and Seattle, interception at goal line.
I no longer watch, sick of the DEI of sports.
Super Bowl V. Baltimore was still smarting from SB III against Namath and the Jets, Dallas had washed out of the playoffs 4 straight years. 11 turnovers. But the only close SB until SB X. Dallas thinks the NFL jinxed them by making them wear their blue jerseys
Actually was a bad call - ball was tipped.
Didn’t bother me though - was an old colts fan.
Craig Morton was the worst big-game QB ever in the league.
And Earl Morrall won it for them.
And then a few years later, he filled in for the injured Bob Griese for most of the Dolphins perfect season.
And Bob Lilly throwing his helmet.
