The table is titled "NFL Titles". After much discussion on the page's talk page, this includes AFL Titles. Then, after more discussion, it was agreed to add (Super Bowls) in parenthesis so people would understand that the Super Bowl is an NFL Title. The Eagles have won three NFL Titles: 1948, 1949, and 1960. -- kainaw 19:07, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In case you didn't see it on my talk page... That table is vandalized daily. It is impossible to keep up. Every day someone sets a team they don't like to zero (or a negative number). Every day, someone sets a team they like to a few thousand. Often, they set it to a number that seems valid - such as 12. It is impossible to keep up. Your edit (changing it to zero) is a very common vandalism by people who don't like the Eagles. I now see the confusion, but I hope you see why it appeared to be vandalism. -- kainaw 19:12, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Started a new discussion on the NFL discussion page. I suggested one column for pre-superbowl titles and one for superbowl titles. -- kainaw 19:19, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
