Super Bowl is in Arizona for first time since Seahawks lost XLIX

I’m warning you now, 12s: Brace yourselves for a flood of bad memories in the forms of highlights that are guaranteed to be prominent on Sunday.

Super Bowl LVII is in Glendale, Arizona, marking the return of the big game to the Valley of the Sun. Unfortunately for Seattle Seahawks fans, it marks the first time it’s been hosted in Arizona since the infamous Super Bowl XLIX.

There’s no need to reminisce about the single worst moment in franchise history, where triumph turned into instant despair. I only write to help prepare everyone for the fact the Fox broadcast will surely show highlights of the events that took place at the end of the big game eight years ago.

Interestingly, the NFC’s representative for Super Bowl LVII is another bird-mascot team with green as a primary color, defined by a running game and bruising defense. Just like eight years ago, the AFC’s representative is led by the best quarterback in the NFL, one who is also on a bit of a championship drought.

My advice to either team at the goal line: Hand the ball off.
