Thrill of victory? 

It happens every year. Just last year I was defending Phil Simms when some
idiots accused me of putting Giants blinders on. I mean, idiots are born on 
rec.sport.football.pro every year.

For a net.rookie, at least get a clue on what teams the net.veterans root for
before pouting.

You are absolutely right. The best team does not always win. In other 
words, in at least one of 81, 84, 88 and 89, the champion must not be 
the best team, i.e.  their victories were all flukes. Glad you recognize that.

I really can't. Since you say the Niners are the better than the Eagles, then 
there is no reason to believe that they will beat the Eagles, based on
your theory. 

>The Niners best will ALWAYS be beat the Eagles best. End result, 
>Niners WIN, Eagles LOSE. 
Since you preach it yourself, that the better team doesn't always win,
then how can you tell us that the Niners best will ALWAYS beat the Eagles
best?

In other words, you contradict yourself.

>Please prove to me that the Eagles are
                                    ^^^
>better than ANYBODY, based on championships and or SB wins. ZERO!
Because the Eagles ARE playing the best football, according to many
people's opinions, plus they HAVE the best record.

Championships and SB wins? How many SBs ARE the 49ers winning at this moment?
ZERO. It seems like every NFL team HAS ZERO Superbowl for the 1992 season.

Better use the correct tense.

Since you claim that the winner isn't always the best, i.e. flukes,
how can you measure yourself against flukes? I would rather measure
against the best than against fluky champions. 

>Which most don't, BTW.
>Rationale, why emulate a team who has not won anything? Get a clue.
Exactly, the last time the 49ers won anything was 1989, 3 seasons ago.
Why emulate a team who has not won anything for 2 years?  yet you
claim that all other teams measure themselves against the 49ers. Maybe
you are right, those teams don't have any brains.

Yes, so the favorites for the season should be the Bears (8 championships,
most in the league). That's tradition! the 49ers shouldn't have a chance.
Get a clue.
