The Offical "America's Game" thread

Okay so over the next few weeks they're going to be counting down the top twenty Superbowl teams of all time. Tonight was the 1983 Los Angeles Raiders. As much as I don't care for them, they do deserve respect for what they did. How great would it be to have Lester Hayes and Michael Haynes as the 49ers starting cornerbacks? Just wow. Howie Long was pretty good in his day too. Obviously, he's a Hall of Famer. Anyways, I like how they presented it. Real graceful, and good interviews. Very well put together. Next week is the 1999 St.Louis Rams at #19. That should be interesting. Although it's going to be hard for me to watch for easy reasons. I'm not sure how many 49ers teams will make it on the list. Hopefully at least two. I'm guessing it will be the 1989 49ers for sure. And maybe the 1994 49ers.

its the 84, 89 and 94(not sure if the 94 team, double check on that but im 90% sure about the other 2)...89 will end up being top 2 most likely.

[Smith2Bryant]

yea they told the teams last friday on tv.

I was a bit surprised that the 1983 Raiders only came in at #20. I think they're better than any team in the last decade, and probably the best Raider team of all time.

For the 49ers, their 84 and 89 editions should make it, and if there is a third, then I'd go with 94.

I would've thought so, too, but the '76 team made the top 20, too, and made at least #18 (#19 is the '99 Rams).

[low_N_breezy]

The 94 niners should have been higher! That team was definatley in the top 3 of best teams EVER assembled

[low_N_breezy]

The 1969 Chiefs are next week. Yawn.

Agreed!

Except for stram! lol! "keep matriculating that ball down the field boys!"

[Eaglesfandan]

That show sucks. What the Hell is that silver shiny thing that the players keep holding up???:trophy:

[low_N_breezy]

1998 Broncos was good. They werent as good as 94 niners but they were good. I have to give them a good nod for having so many 6th and 7th rounders on that team and almost going undefeated though
