Two things about the Superbowl and that is it I swear

1. Josh Miller....Grrr. How many times have the Steelers been in the playoffs or important games that need to be won to get them closer to the playoffs when all that needed to happen was Josh Miller to nail a decent punt and only to see the very next image on your tv Coach Cowher spitting on Miller as he is cussing him out? But suddenly he plays within the Charmed Circle of Brady and he makes the Punt of Life. Grrrr

2. Dynasty? That word is going to be thrown around a lot this week (and onward) with respect to the Patriots. Nevermind that the NFL also touts the Parity System as something that prevents dynasties and spreads the wealth and success throughout the league. So which do you want, NFL? Dynasty or Parity? Pick one.

The reason the "dynasty" word keeps getting thrown around is because the Patriots have become one, in spite of a system designed to prevent them. The salary cap, free agency, and the draft have been created to give everybody an equal chance. Yet, the Patriots have been able to accomplish something that sets them apart from the other dynasties. This is the same system that allowed your beloved Steelers to recover from what - a 6-10 season last year (?) to a 15-1 season this year. Sounds like you're munching on some sour grapes this morning :)

Sour Grapes? You betcha.
But I just would like the NFL to pick which way they want to go. It was their own website and official press stuff that were throwing around the Dynasty word.
Of course, if you want to see real sports Dynasties, you really need to look at the non-parity sports, like Hockey and Basketball. Three championships alone do not a dynasty make.
