Re: OT: This football promotion is kinda dumb
if they asked a question like that, they'd need to say Superbowl XXIV or whatever, not the year since that is ambiguous

No clue what this promotion is or how technical they're getting, but the Super Bowl the Bears won was played in 1986. [/ QUOTE ] Damn Partypoker and their loopholes! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

That is pretty clearly "what team won the football game called the superbowl that was played in the year 1985?" Ambiguity created by the reader is not ambiguity. c |

Re: OT: This football promotion is kinda dumb
the superbowl is for the 1985 season, even if played in 1986, so many people will think of the 1985 champions since that is the year in the question
i realize that, taken literally, only 1 superbowl was played, and won, in 1985, but many people will know the answer but say the wrong team because they think of the 1985 champions, not the 1984 champions i've only ever seen the question asked as who won superbowl XXVI, not as who won the 1985 superbowl, and probably for this reason |

Re: OT: This football promotion is kinda dumb
I am surprised the NFL hasn't cracked down on this yet. Having a poker site use the phrase "National Football League" is very un-NFL.
