As usual, my friends and I watched the Superbowl as the only football game we’ve seen all year. When it came time to arbitrarily choose a side to root for, I enthusiastically picked your beloved Cardinals – in part because they were the underdogs, in part because they were the Cinderella Story, in part because Arizona seems to be one of the more libertarian places in the whole dang country, but mostly because I knew you were rooting for them.

What a game. Some amazing plays on both sides. Gripping right down to the end. Congrats to the Cardinals for getting as far as they did, and for making an entertaining Superbowl.

Congratulations on your team making the Super Bowl. I’ve often supported the teams that have had a history of losing, so I’ll be rooting for the Cardinals this year!

You got me on that one. I thought you had found the weather for Hell, Michigan (about right for Sunday, though the windchill was probably lower.)http://www.hell2u.com

Imagine the national press if this happened in philly.

ESPN would run all the clips and have a five minute segment on the philly fan as antichrist. i use this not as an indictment of giants or cards fans in general, but to illustrate that the philly fan as villain is overstated.

Big 5 basketball in Philly was the best of all possible sporting worlds at one time. The crowds were raucous and the teams were competitive (with each other, if not the world at large). It all came crashing down for me when Corky Calhoun got caught signing with an agent while in college and the ‘Nova Wildcats had to forfeit their season, including the #2 ranking behind UCLA. Sports in general, and college sport in particular, slid into the abyss of corruption after that. Probably this happened in my mind, but it seems real enough.

John – Philly fans think of themselves as the best fans on earth. They (we) are a little hard on our “heros” though. Just ask Mike Schmidt.
