Politics Football Ain’t Red State
May 14,2007 
Eve Fairbanks of The New Republic thinks that Brownback’s football gaffe happened because he was trying to prove his “red-state manliness”. Sure, college football does have a strong southern tinge to it but I think the NFL is clearly not a red-state game. It would certainly surprise the rabid fans in New England, New York/New Jersey, and the DC Metro area (Maryland is the physical home to two teams for goodness sake).

And who’s won the most Super Bowls? (Well, a tie with the unmentionable ones): The San Francisco Pelosi Democrats 49ers!
And don’t forget about Oakland, right across the bridge from San Francisco. You can’t talk about rabid fans without mentioning the Raider Nation.
Don’t forget Da Bears
Just came here to say I hate the Cowboys and the CFL rules.
Go Lions.
