If you guys needed help with something like this, I would help you guys only because you guys are fellow Bills fans.

If WCF were to come over here asking for help like this, I would hope you guys would give him wrong answers.

That's what I would do.

Oh, and I've got great news, Thurman Thomas doesn't hold the lifetime record for the most fumbles in superbowls - Roger Staubach does - he's got five.

Len Dawson,
Chuck Howley,
Jake Scott,
Randy White, Harvey Martin,
Jim Plunkett (I'm pretty sure he was a qb, just not certain)
John Riggins,
Richard Dent,
Doug Williams (he's the guy from the Redskins right)

And Kathy Lee Gifford Sang the National Anthem on 1-29-95 for the Super Bowl.

Michael Jackson never sang the NA at the SB.

That all depends if they pay for the plane ticket.

UB lives on the west coast, so going to SD is no problem for him.

Besides, I wouldn't want to hear UB be talking about cars the whole game. :D ;)

The Super Bowl trophy was supposed to be just for team owners. No longer. Owning one — at least a copy — has emerged as a status symbol with such allure that some players and coaches now flaunt them in their own living rooms.

"The Super Bowl ring is something you either wear or don't wear. And the money, well, you quickly spend it," says John Madden, former coach of the 1977 Super Bowl champion Oakland Raiders, now a Fox commentator. "But there's nothing in your life with more meaning than that trophy. Everyone wants to touch it."

Madden got his from Al Davis, the Oakland Raiders renegade owner who defied league officials in 1977 and knocked off replica Super Bowl trophies for all team members. Not the $20,000 sterling silver trophies Tiffany makes for the NFL, mind you, but $500 silver-plated versions that looked remarkably like the real thing.

Since then, a handful of team owners have ordered knockoffs. They're hard to get — even the copies are only available through Super Bowl-winning teams. But some of the copies have been sold at auction for big paydays.

In 1999, the estate of Weeb Ewbank, the head coach who led the New York Jets to a victory over the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III, sold his miniature Super Bowl trophy for $18,700. That same year, former Oakland Raiders running back Carl Garrett sold his replica for $13,560 at auction.

The value of real Super Bowl trophies is unknown. None have been sold. They could probably fetch $100,000 to $300,000, estimates Margaret Olsen, a sports collectible expert in Denver.



Hey- I just posted the link to the story on how they make them.... so sue me...:dink:

I couldn't care less about braindeadredhead. She's one of those people who were put on earth for people to take advantage of.

It's all about psychopunkchick. She's real defensive of me - if another chick looks at me, she lets her know I'm taken in a not so subtile way.

I don't win a trip to the superbowl you wiseguys - the prize is, you get a couple of Pizzas (from Mountain Mikes - I don't know if you guys have heard of them or not - I think they're only out here in Cali), 6 Mexican dinners from a local mexican restaurant, a vegetable and deli tray from SaveMart, 10 2 Liters of Coke, and 2 Cases of the Beer of your choice.

I'll sell the beer, and get me a bottle of some Vodka, or Captain Morgan Spiced Rum - Hard alcohol doesn't make me feel like crap the next day unless I drink beer before I drink hard alcohol.

Cars are awesome.

my taste in cars is second to none.

Bentley uses only the finest leather for it's cars interiors (seats, consoles, armrests etc...) - they import their leather from scandinavia because that's the only place on earth that keeps their grazing animals corralled with wooden fences as opposed to barbedwire - Barbwire cuts the skin of grazing animals, thus damaging the hyde/leather and decreasing the quality of the leather.

Bentleys suck - it's all about the Maybach.
