how long are you allowed to brag about a superbowl victory?

I'd probably brag until my teams chances of winning next years championship were completely gone. Once that time comes the SB victory is officially the past and doesn't really mean anything IMO.

If this is about the saints, as of now they're still the defending champions, which unfortunately means bragging is warranted. If we won we'd be talking the same poo. Annoying as hell to see them revert back to that victory in any argument though, especially on our forum.

Until the next season starts, then everyone is 0-0.

Dreaming. "Defending Superbowl Champion New Orleans Saints" is something you are going to hear a lot of next season.

I say until they don't make the playoffs the following season. And even then everybody wants to beat the champs, good thing is, the Panthers will get to do it twice.

Right. If the Saints don't make the playoffs, or if they get eliminated, etc... then they are no longer "defending" champions, so bragging about it at that time would be kinda silly.

BUT, most Saints fans have heard from our rivals for so long that the Saints will never make a SB, never win a SB, will always be losers, etc.... so my guess is that Panthers and Falcons fans will be hearing a lot of that until they win one. As far as the Bucs go.... well, does anyone really care about the Bucs? they beat the Saints last year, and I still can't take anything their fans say seriously. They are years away from being contenders, but it is cute that their claim to fame is beating the Saints last year. Shows how far the Saints have come.

Eh, I can KIND of see where the Bucs fans are coming from. In 2002 we swept them and beat them up physically when they had maybe one of the NFL's all time great defenses and won the SB. Some idiot Saints fans held on to that as bragging rights like the pathetic Bucs fans are doing now. The funny thing is had Brooks not gotten hurt at the end of the year we could have made some real noise in the playoffs.

      Unc Basketball thread

      Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
