[edit]The whole pragraph I marked is pretty unencyclopedic except for the X-Files reference. Speculation on supernatural influence on Norwood is plainly out of place and unduly sympathetic to Norwood. But mostly, just out of place. - PhilipR 04:35, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- Here it is:
- However, no one has publicly suggested, or named, a "curse" that might be on the Bills (other than the X-Files character the Cigarette Smoking Man who proclaimed in a famous episode that while he was alive the Bills would never win a Super Bowl), even though they have never won a World Championship, and the only times they went as far as they could go was in the 1964 and 1965 seasons, when they were the last two American Football League Champions to be unable to face the NFL Champions in a world championship game. With the Bills having been a lackluster team through the late 1960s, the O.J. Simpson years of the 1970s, and through most of the 1980s until the rebuilding under Levy, it would be a mistake to label such a hex "The Curse of Scott Norwood." If something supernatural and sinister prevents the Bills from winning a Super Bowl, Norwood is one if its victims, not the cause.
- Being in Chicago - where sport curses are everywhere (see Chicago Cubs), I'm not really a fan of those things. Furthermore, they're neither neutral nor factual. KyuuA4 18:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
- Not a Chicagoan, though I'm a Bears fan, and a firm believer in the Curse of the Chicago Honey Bears, but I'm also not a fan of these either. ZappaOMati 03:42, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
