We were humiliated once, too.
See, our ol' headmaster visited English class once back in the oldern days of 19-eight-eight. "Snap," he grumbled, "What's a metaphor?"
"It's a comparison without using like or as," Young Fat Dork said.
"NO!" the headmaster yelled. "It's a place for cows!"
(Cue class laughter, suck-ups they were).
"Now Snap," the headmaster mused, "We'll try this again. What's a metaphor?"
"It's a comparison without using like or as," Young Acid-washed-jeans Mullet replied.
"No! It's a place for cows!"
(More laughter; cue predictable punchline now).
"One more time, Snap. What's a meadow for?"
"It's a place for cows," Young Defeated Double-chin replied.
"NO! It's a COMPARISON WITHOUT USING LIKE OR AS!"
And END SCENE.

wow. total flashback reading that article.
I know nothing about sports but I can tell you that the Steelers and the Eagles played in the Super Bowl the year I was in 2nd grade. The teacher had us making these little eagles from paper bags and construction paper. One kid, Matthew if I remember correctly, didn't want to as his fam was from Pittsburg. He got in trouble for painting is eagle black with yellow and red rings on it. Even in 2nd grade, I knew that something was really wrong about getting in trouble for expressing a different opinion than the majority... especially since I couldn't even grasp the concept of what a super bowl was... not from a real sporty fam.
Educate her, Old Man.
It's a good thing Old Kid Snap didn't have access to his father's gun rack, or that story might have ended much differently.
Kids today.
Come see my show in Delaware! Heh.
The Eagles suck my left nut. And I don't think they ever played the Steelers in the Super Bowl. Raiders and dumb Patriots, yes. Steelers, not so much. Either way, Chicago's my favorite. And yes, I've heard all the jokes as to why Chicago's my favorite team. I get it. I'm a friggin' bear and they're a bunch of bears. Oh the friggin hilarity.
It is possible it was a play off game or some such thing. Like I said... not so much into the sports.
But this http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bear
explains the nut sucking... but not being a Philly fan, I'm guessing you're not a Liberty Bear.
