Thanks for the Superbowl facts. I’m a huge Steelers fan and will be screaming my brains out on Sunday. We are hoping the Steelers will make it a 6 pack!

I don’t get American football. It’s such a long game with so many stops and starts. LOL – It’s probably just as well I’m an ocean away to avoid the rotten tomatoes. I prefer rugby any day! 🙂

Happy TT.

Go Steelers. I LOVE football, thanks for the trivia, even if the fact about my team is depressing. Maybe next year Cleveland.

Jennifer McKenzie says January 29, 2009

Awesome! I was rooting for the Saints this year because they haven’t been.
I can’t wait for Sunday!

I’m curious what non-SB show cracked the top 10 most watched show! My guess is the M*A*S*H series finale.

Here’s another SB fact – all 3 of the Patriots SB victories were decided by an Adam Vinatieri field goal.

Paige,

Where did you find the football on the “Thirteen” banner? He is hot! Are there any more of him?

Jami (drooling because she has the hots for football players)
