Just Jack Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Nope. It should stay the Lamar Hunt trophy. Kansas City was the first AFL/AFC participant in the Super Bowl and Hunt was the most influential AFL owner. He was also instrumental in the AFL/NFL merger. The NFL screws with its game all the time and doesn't have the cherished stats of MLB but this is one of the few things that they have continued to get right. I don't like they new look Conference Championship trophy's. Bring back the old trophy with the big A or N look.
hondo in seattle Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Lombardi won five NFL titles. In seven years. And more, the titles included the first two Super Bowls and the NFL title the year before that. That's a lot of the reason they named the trophy after him. Belichick's record is incredibly impressive, but he won, what, Super Bowls 36, 38, 39 and 44. That's not as romantic as #1 and #2. Can't see it happening. I don't always agree with T1 but agree here wholeheartedly
KD in CA Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Honestly one of the five worst ideas ever on this board.
Augie Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Honestly one of the five worst ideas ever on this board. I take that as a challenge!
KD in CA Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I take that as a challenge! LOL. In fairness I should say one of the five worst non player draft/sign ideas ever. Trade up for Tebow, sign Manziel and Mario for Skelton are in a separate category.
bobobonators Posted February 4, 2017 Author Posted February 4, 2017 Dude... You just threw a grenade into the men's room and slammed the door. Lmao. 😊 It was a legit topic on sports talk radio 2 days ago.
K-9 Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I take that as a challenge! Me, too. I'll,start. I think they should go back to outlawing the forward pass.
Augie Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Me, too. I'll,start. I think they should go back to outlawing the forward pass. That would actually work in our favor since....well...it just would. I LIKE IT!
White Linen Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Me, too. I'll,start. I think they should go back to outlawing the forward pass. All the sudden EJ for QB doesn't look so bad.
K-9 Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 That would actually work in our favor since....well...it just would. I LIKE IT! Hotdamn! I am a football idiot-savant. The Rain Man of gridiron strategy. Wapner at 5!
Augie Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Hotdamn! I am a football idiot-savant. The Rain Man of gridiron strategy. Wapner at 5! I'm not sure about the savant part, but the rest of that? SURE!
DC Tom Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 If the Pats win the SB tomortow Would people be opposed to renaming the Lombardi Trophy to the BelichickTrophy down the line? Not anytime soon but once Belichick retires and some time passes. When its all said and done he'll be the most successful HC ever. Added significance to his accomplishments is the fact that the large majority of this took place in the modern era where salary caps can signigicantly hamper teams. What are you, drunk?
Tcali Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 How about the 'Abe Gibron Superbowl Participation Trophy'. Both teams get them so the losing players don't feel so bad.
bobobonators Posted February 4, 2017 Author Posted February 4, 2017 What are you, drunk? HAHA! 🤷🏻♂️ Im just reiterating a topic of conversation on chicago sports talk radio i think it was either Wed or Thurs during home commute. 🤦🏻♂️🙁
B-Man Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 No. When the Giants upset them, he ran off the field without shaking anyone's hand. Good winner, poor loser.........poor human being. No honors please. .
mead107 Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I think it should be the Bill and Tom trophy.
