Living in Pittsburgh, you hear these idiots talk say ridiculous things such as "We're the greatest franchise in the NFL because we have 6 Super Bowls and we're getting 7, two more than anybody else." In response to that I say this: You have 6 NFL Championships and you're going to face the greatest NFL franchise in Dallas at Super Bowl XLV. The Green Bay Packers have won 12 NFL titles 3 more than the team they beat on the way to the Super Bowl, the Chicago Bears. As a matter of fact, if the Steelers win the Super Bowl, they will have as many championships as my favorite team, the New York Giants. I wonder Steelers think they have the most championships out of pure ignorance or the fact that that franchise hadn't done shit in their first forty years of existence.
But at the same time this is not a post to bash Steelers because some of my best friends rock the Black & Yellow. This is about displacement of history. The Super Bowl has been around for only 45 years, the NFL and most of their franchises have been around for 90 plus years. So half of the NFL's history should be discounted because it did not include a game with a shitload of commercial and 45 minute long halftime show? I don't think so.
Game Preview
You have two really good QB's in Aaron Rodgers and Ben Rapelisberger...(ehem) I mean Roethlisberger. Two solid defenses. I think this could be one of the greatest Super Bowls ever. Halftime will suck so that will be a good time to go to the bathroom or re-up on food. Final score will be Green Bay 21 Pittsburgh 14
Thank you suggie b for spreading some knowledge to some very ignorant people.
