If Bud Grant were alive, he'd be spinning in his grave.

Bud Grant is still alive.

So is Marv Levy so I say let them coach Seattle and New England Sunday to settle once and for all who the biggest loser is.

I'm actually surprised it wasn't 3 out of 4. A lot of omni doubters out there.

Just realized something thinking about Grant and Levy. Sunday will be Belichick's third SuperBowl loss. I'm accustomed to supporting any team that plays the Patriots, but if my Bengals can't go to the SuperBowl then I hope the Patriots make it again the next two seasons so Belichick can rack up five SuperBowl losses.

Man, the jealousy abounds in this thread.

Quote:Twenty-six percent of Americans and 27 percent of self-described sports fans believe God plays a role in determining which team will win a sporting event.

Really? Should we count prayers instead of points, then?

If I was an athlete I'd be insulted.

Quote:Even more -- 53 percent of Americans and 56 percent of sports fans -- say God rewards faithful athletes with good health and success.

Unless, as we all know, he chooses to give them cancer in order to make them believe in afterlife.

You mean if he weren't alive? Or does he tend to take naps in graveyards? Tongue
