<p>I think it is an appropriate question since Super Bowl Suday is a little more than 1 week away. Super Bowls have notoriously been one-sided and over-hyped. However, there have been a few gems, especially in the last few years.</p>
<p>As far as my favorite, I would have to say the New England vs. Carolina in Super Bowl XXXVIII was the best ever. That game had it all, and then some. </p>
<p>It had hard hitting, stingy defense that held the two teams scoreless for most of the first half and the 3rd quarter.</p>
<p>Despite the defense, the game had just the right amount of scoring. The sequence of events before half-time was crazy and the game had the most exciting 4th quarter I have ever seen, with 37 total points being scored by the 2 teams. The final score was 32-29 Pats, a good amount of offense on both sides.</p>
<p>It had a game-winning field goal by the ever-reliable Adam Vinateri. The game actually would've went into overtime if the Pathers' kicker didn't kick the ball out of bounds. This gave the Pats great field position.</p>
<p>Several Super Bowl records were set, including longest pass play from scrimmage and most completions by a quarterback (Tom Brady).</p>
<p>Just for "fun," Super Bowl XXXVIII has the most Roman numerals of any Super Bowl so far. It also had Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" which unfortunately stole a lot of the limelight away from a phenomenal game. </p>
<p>That's all I have to say for now. Let the "debate" begin.</p>
<p>What abou Broncos over Pats? Thats the one superbowl I saw wit twodefinite hall of famer quarterbacks playing against eachother, and Elway's 1st win.</p>
<p>people around here are going CRAZY over this superbowl. we're less than an hour from chicago and about 2.5 hours from Indy.
So Bears Vs. Colts is huge. it's all you can hear about here right now.</p>
<p>which is annoying, since I have no interest at all.</p>
<p>"Still, Farve vs Elway, not was pretty good, and the third Super Bowl I watched (1st one where the AFC won)"</p>
<p>Yeah it was. I remember I really like Favre and I wanted him to win so badly. I think the final score was 31-24, meaning that the game was pretty competitive. I still prefer the Pats-Panthers game since it had the last-second, edge-of-your-seat type drama that you just need to have. Farve vs. Elway was good, but the winning TD came with plenty of time left in the game (almost 2 minutes). The Pats-Panthers game was unpredictable down to the final few seconds. Even when Vinateri lined up for the game-wining kick, it was a guarantee since he had missed one earlier in the game and had another one blocked.</p>

<p>You thinks tha's crazy? Try living in NYC when the Yankees played the Mets. Talk about the "talk of the town." My neighbor is a Met fan and I am a Yankee fan and the upcomming series was all we talked about for the longest time. We even talked about the possiblilty of it since both the Yankees and Mets made the playoffs. All of the news stories focus on prepping for the series. I remember this guy who shaved Yankees and mEt logos inot people's hair...</p>
<p>Okay, I'm going off on a bit of a tangent but you get the idea.</p>
<p>Titans and Rams was a thriller. And yeah Yankees vs. Mets World Series was crazy, in nyc. I was the only mets fan in my school, but that was all we talked about for awhile.</p>
<p>"The best was Rams-Titans. It came down to the last play, and the Titans were stopped one yard short of the endzone."</p>
<p>Another good one. It might have been my favorite before the Pats-Panthers one. My one compliaint with it though was that it was one-sided until the 3rd quarter. The Rams led 16-0 at one point. The "Dyson stretch" with 1-yard to go was pretty sweet though. I was pulling for Warner and the Rams since it was an amazing story. Here's a guy (kurt Warner) who literally came out of nowhere and leads him team to the Super Biowl championship. Amazing stuff.</p>
<p>i would pick one of the pats games, but god i hate them sooo mucch. I'm a Jets fan, and i regret the fact that it was the Jets who actually discovered Brady for the Pats.(Bledsoe got injured against the Jets which led to Brady starting) I mean do u honestly think the Pats, back then would've started Brady if Bledsoe didn't get injured? I think not.</p>
<p>"I mean do u honestly think the Pats, back then would've started Brady if Bledsoe didn't get injured? I think not."</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm not too fond of the Pats b/c I associate them with The Red Sox. Being a Yankee fan, hating the Red Sox is a formality. Bill Bellichick is also a real a**hole, refusing to acknowledge Payton manning after the AFC championship. Talk about a lack of class. Still, I can't deny that the Pats are one hell of a team. You can't bring them down. The salary cap rule seems to work on everyone else but them. When they lost good players like Lawyer Milloy and Ty Law, they just rebuild and come back again, as good as ever. Desdpite the fact that this year, they had only 1 Pro-Bowler and lost even more players, they almost went to the Super Bowl yet again. No other dynasty every played in an Era that was more designed to prevent dynasties as the Pats have. For this reason, their 3 Super Bowl championships in 4 years is the most impressive feat for a dynsaty ever IMO.</p>
<p>^True but none of their dynasty would even be possible w/o Tom Brady. I guess anything to be really successful, needs luck. But they definately know how to run things i agree with that. Hopefully the Jets truly did find something in Mangini, and become better than the Pats. Oh and the pro bowl is waayyy overrated. The jets only had one pro bowler too(Justin Miller-a kick returner) but they made the playoffs. Hell John Lynch made the pro bowl, and his stats were average at best. Definately no better than Kerry Rhodes. If u don't know who that is check him out. He'll be a star one day.</p>
