re: Is 2011 our best chance for a "double title?"

I am season ticket holder for my hometown NFL team, but I still have to say that I find an LSU NC to be far more exhilarating than a Super Bowl trip. In large part, it is because a college national championship seems so much rarer and more improbable. In the NFL, 32 teams compete for a championship. In college, there are 119 Division 1-A teams, about half of which have a legitimate chance to win the title at the start of the season. In college, near perfection is required to hold aloft the crystal trophy. Two losses is typically fatal. Last year, in the NFL, the Lombardi Trophy was soled by the mediocre hands of a team that went 10-6 in the regular season. Maybe it is just me, but college football seems the stuff of resplendent legend and bone-marrow pride, whereas the NFL is more of a calculated workaday TV spectacle. I enjoy them both tremendously, but if I could only chose one...
