I'm personally pleased with this decision. I wasn't really looking forward to having the "L" on my Washington Redskins Super Bowl 50 Champions shirt.

Not surprised. The majority of Americans probably don't know how to use Roman numerals. Some probably don't even know what they are.

It would make more sense to probably just use the year the Super Bowl is being played eventually. I'll be too old to give a damn when Super Bowl 100 comes around the corner.

Yeah. It would be weird to move it from your forehead to your shirt.

That might make things confusing since the regular season is played almost entirely in one year and the playoffs/Super Bowl the next. The '85 Bears didn't win the '85 Super Bowl- they won the '86 Super Bowl.

I don't know. I expect more out of KK. He is usually way too clever for a simpleton joke that isn't properly constructed. I mean why would I even have to remove the L from my forehead in order to have one on my shirt? Hell, HOW would I get it off my forehead? And it's not like there's only one L to go around. As a Skins fan, I'm plenty prepared for multiple L's. I've got enough for all our foreheads and shirts.

Who the L cares what the NFL does?

Because you sure as hell ain't getting one by being in the Super Bowl.

It was a little funny. Don't go all Emp on me.

Skins over the Bungles in an epic Super Bowl L battle in which Gruden calls the greatest, ballsiest trick play in playoff history as DeSean Jackson throws a game winning touchdown to RG3 from 50 yards out with 20 seconds left. You heard it here first...

To me, it's like when the Farrelly brothers make an OK movie. If it were any other random director/writers, you'd say that was pretty funny. But when it's them, you expect comedic gold every time. You set the bar too high for yourself Mr. Krazy.
