So if it's all rigged for storylines such as the feel good championship for the Saints after Katrina, then why didn't the script include a Super Bowl victory for the Giants or Jets post 9/11? Hell, you could have had BOTH of them in the Super Bowl to really provide solace for New Yorkers after the terrible tragedy. Don't tell me having the Patriots win it was the best the NFL could offer because New England's mascot was fitting. That's fvvcking laughable. The author is obviously clueless. If anything, it's salt on the wound for New Yorkers to have to witness their hated rivals in the Boston area hoist the Lombardi.

For every storyline that surfaces, there's a host of other compelling possibilities that never do. So we had the Harbaugh Bowl, big deal. The coaches didn't suit up. It wasn't exactly the sports story of the century. It's just fodder for the media leading up to the game. But they wanted to give Ray Lewis a retirement present says the article. Well what about Tony Gonzalez's going away gift? He's one of the greatest tight end's to ever play and he was on his retirement tour at the time. he never smeared the league's image with a murder charge like old Ray Ray.

You know what would really ignite viewer interest and be a sports journalist's wet dream? A Manning Bowl. (Eli vs Peyton) Five Super Bowls (next week's included) between the two brothers, yet not once has it been against the other. Hmm, someone in the NFL's writing department clearly isn't doing their job. This article has little, if any, substance and is mostly just a collection of wild speculation...... It basically states that if any interesting scenarios crop up that bolster viewership, then it's a total contrivance. Yeah, because life left to it's own devices would never produce anything remotely interesting.
