Super Bowl article unfair
As we wait for the Super Bowl of the present year, we have plenty of time to visit with the ghosts of Super Bowls past.
A sports article on America Online lists the biggest Super Bowl goats of all time. On top of the list is Scott Norwood, the Buffalo Bills kicker who missed a field goal that would've given his team a victory in Super Bowl XXV. On top of that, the Bills lost the next three consecutive title games.
The article said Norwood's only task was to nail a 47-yard field goal to win the game. That's not exactly a chip shot. I'd only feel confident in that situation if Mike Nugent was my kicker. On the other hand, an NFL kicker should be able to hit that.
If Norwood missed a 20-something-yarder, there would've really been no excuse!
