Super Bowl Sunday

This Sunday, the casual fan will take a seat along side the die hard fan to witness the annual extravaganza that is the Super Bowl. Die hard fans base their rooting interest in who they want to lose. Casual fans would rather cheer for who they want to win. So who do you root for if you haven't followed the season all year? This year's match up is a toss up.

Arizona comes in as the Cinderella story. Kurt Warner's surprising resurgence. Larry Fitzgerald's inspiring life story. The little engine that never could finally did. An underdog franchise with likable stars at key positions.

Pittsburgh is the name you know. People love to associate themselves with winners. Mike Tomlin looks to not only become the second African American coach to win a Super Bowl, but to also become the fourth consecutive Steeler coach to bring home the Lombardi Trophy. Tough, blue collar, and likable. As a die hard Titans fan I'm having a hard time deciding who I'd want to see lose.
