Think, think, think. Think back when you were a kid. What was the first game that you can remember and did it get you addicted to this wonderful beast that we call the NFL? Mine, I still recall vividly. Even though I can't remember my nephew or nieces' birthdays (gottem all written down).

Mine was Super Bowl IX (nine). My team when I was a little kid was the Vikings because I loved Fran Tarkenton. He was a blast to watch. The Vikings were an NFC machine back then and seemed to make the playoffs every year. They played outdoors in the mud, snow, and crappy conditions like real men.

I would watch their games on Channel 11 which was broadcasted across the lake (from Toronto I think) because I think Canada back then had adopted the Vikes as their NFL team.

Very sad for me to watch the young Steelers, in their first Super Bowl appearance, just pound away on my favored Vikings. Franco Harris and Rocky just pounded and pounded it away. Keeping the ball from Fran and the offense. The Steel Curtain began that day and the Purple People Eaters went home hungry.

A little trivia here, Bradshaw was 9 of 14 for 96 yards and 1 TD. Very Tebow like, eh?
