This is a strange Super Bowl. The Patriots aren't in it, which complicates everything. For whom do we root when there's nobody to root against? The teams who are in it aren't new _ one of them graced the first Super Bowl, even though that game wasn't officially called the Super Bowl _ but they're different enough that they might need some introduction. Glad to be of service.
