2023 NFL Regular Season - Page 104 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

There’s something about the fans of up and coming contending teams that haven’t won the SB for a long time that seems to change posters itt into loons.

Suzzer was the first but he chilled out substantially once the Chiefs won one. Dom became unbearable as the Bills were upwardly mobile and now SRM. Also newguyhere has appeared and is showing increasing signs of irrational Dolphins fan behaviour too

All I said was Miami has a better of winning the SB than Dallas because the path to getting there for Miami is so much easier.

I don’t even remember that one, but there’s been a few.

You’re not extreme yet but I do feel that a 2nd Rd playoff loss and then another year of contending might have you primed for some lunacy

I watched it growing up in the UK in the 80s - we used to get a few hours of highlights every week on the TV and then we'd get playoff games in full (athough they were generally the middle of the night so we'd have to tape them). Then just followed it from there.

My first Super Bowl I remember watching was the year the Raiders won in like 83 or 84.

I have twice lived in the US for a while too, but I already loved it before then

My first big new business pitch win and one of the first ad campaigns I ever produced was for the launch of the London Monarchs in the World League of American Football.

‘American Football. English Turf’.

Seems like he's talking about the Raiders-Redskins SB. That was the first one I remember, too.
