Default How do you know that your team is not going to the Superbowl?

1. You feel a surge of passionate joy when the team that has beaten yours loses.

2. As soon as any NFL player who has ever caught a pass or made a tackle is rumoured to be about to be cut or traded you start a thread on a fan message-board speculating that he will join your team.

3. You believe that your team will go undefeated next season when all of your injured players return healthy.

4. You complain loudly that the Superbowl is all hype.

5. You take an intense interest in the vital statistics of 22 year-old men who weigh over 300 lbs.

6. You tell your family that you have no interest in watching football, but they find you watching Three Games to Glory with tears running down your face.



[6a. It’s Thanksgiving (you’re a Jets fan).]

Damn, that is such a good list.

I guess we'll be in the chat room next Sunday.

I was watching the first TGTG when I read this(no tears though).

8. You invent new words using the first 4 letters of your HC's name.
9. BB at the Senior Bowl is the biggest news of the week.
10. Mel Kiper is not the only person watching the Senior Bowl.
