truth on hold Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Neat. In my own mind I had a few others above it, even as a bills fan. But the argument made is a good one ... It was an epic struggle of contrasting styles right from the start. Very intense and never a lapse of interest. That giants drive at end of first half was painful. And i wish #1 of all time ended with the more appropriate sounding ending like the kicker making a long one for the win !
stinky finger Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why, I don't agree with this. No sir. I don't agree with this at all.
Meathead Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 ive always thought it was the best one ever. having that kick go through would have cemented it - and saved us locals a lot of weeping
sweatpantsjoe Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I dunno, that Carolina New England Superbowl was hard to top.
GOBILLS78 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I dunno, that Carolina New England Superbowl was hard to top. Best second halfs, maybe. The first half of that game was awful.
truth on hold Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 The context of beginning of gulf war added to patriotic drama. Whitney Houston rocked the house with IMO best pregame national anthem ever https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmrQINYTSd4&feature=youtube_gdata_player
WickedGame Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 When will people learn: Bleacher Report doesn't "name" anything. Bleacher Report didn't decide, as a publishing company, that this game was #1. This particular author did. One writer. On a site with lots of writers, lots of content, lots of opinions, and very little expertise.

It might be the only game I've ever watched that I can ALSO remember the pre-game. It was that good.
Brand J Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 The best Superbowl in my mind was NE vs NYG (part I). Considering what was at stake - a perfect record - and the miraculous plays made by NYG in the waning minutes, it doesn't get any better than that. When you factor in the disgust for the Patsie franchise and golden boy Brady, the loss almost felt like a Bills Superbowl win!
holmz56 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I think that game proved that Marv Levy was nothing but a retread from the KC Chiefs who okayed all the terrible play - calling in that game and who made things even worse by becoming our G.M. and making horrible draft picks ! We should've ran Thurman into the ground that game !

Yea, on articles like this I'd rather see "Nick Kostos named it his favorite SB on BR"
mitchmurraydowntown Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 It was the best SB with the worst ending.

Considering what was at stake - a perfect record - and the miraculous plays made by NYG in the waning minutes, it doesn't get any better than that. When you factor in the disgust for the Patsie franchise and golden boy Brady, the loss almost felt like a Bills Superbowl win! The game was a sleeper. The storyline of a perfect season was much better than the game itself. You can say this was a bad superbowl with a good ending. Edited January 26, 2013 by VADC Bills

I am sure I could go to BR and look at 1,000 other wannabe's who said other Super Bowls were better, and post the link in a new thread and get flamed.
SBUffalo Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 So can we start a petition to block Bleacherreport links around here? God damn.

vincec Posted January 26, 2013 Author Posted January 26, 2013 I wonder if it's possible to post anything on this board without getting flamed. This is just a link so the title get's flamed. Classic. In regards to the material at hand, my personal favorite was the Dallas - Pittsburgh SB that he lists as number 3. That game had an Ali - Frazier feel to it. Both teams coming off recent championships and clearly the two best teams of that era. The game was not bad either with a classic Staubach led Cowboys rally falling just short. Given the short memories of most of these lists just the fact that it's so high all these years later shows how memorable it was.
