I see a trend here.
Last year, our sad-sack Patriots came out of nowhere to win the Super Bowl. Those not from New England can't appreciate the sorry and pethetic history this team has had over the years. Times when their stadiums toilets backed up because nobody tested the water system. When a coach electrocuted himself with a microphone. When they had to dress across the street form their playing field, at a hotel across the street from Harvard Stadium.. How when they finally made it to a Super Bowl, they were routed in the worst blowout in history (to that date) following their star reciver mysteriously cutting himself with a knife.
This year, it's the Buccanneers - who started their existence 0-26 and had the 2nd most-difficult-to-reproduce logo (the Errol Flynn Bucanneer, second only to "Old Pat Patriot" before the Patriots current "Elvis" logo) in the league.
So what historically inept team with a lousy history is going to go Cinderella on us next year? Now that the Patriots and Buccaneers have gotten the moneky off their backs and the ring on their finger - who's next?
