    I don't have a preference on Roman Numerals or not. I will say I don't pay attention to the roman numerals, the Super Bowls are just named by the winning team or teams playing in my head. It is an issue since the season goes through 2 calendar years if the Seahwaks are 2013 champs or 2014 champs. They are 2013-2014 Champs, but calling it the 2013-2014 SB doesn't sounds good.

    If I can complain, I would like the SB MVP trophy to be redesigned. It looks strange to me.

    Roman numerals suck.

    I like hockey but it's irrelevant in this Country and obviously nowhere near the SB.

    Alright, all the Roman numeral camp has to do now is start a big campaign over whether the NFL should be using Roman numerals or Arabic numerals. I'd love to watch that one as the average American suddenly clues in to the fact that he is using a number system invented by jihadists thirteen hundred years ago.
