Random YouTube Magic: 1986 Patriots Super Bowl Video

I suppose it's hard to top the "Super Bowl Shuffle," but it doesn't look like the Bears' opponent in Super Bowl XX, the New England Patriots, were even trying. I mean, Glam Rock? Really?



Kevin Rys, quoted on Can't Stop the Bleeding, nails it:
"I don't think I've ever been more embarrassed to be from New England ... Or be a Pats fan. I loved that the only Celtics they could get were Scotty Wedman, Greg Kite, Rick Carlisle, and was that Sam Vincent? The Bob Lobel/Joyce Kulhawik cameos both made my head spin and cemented (in my mind) some long held beliefs about the two of them."
On the upside, you can never have enough of Spencer: For Hire.

Shockingly, the Pats were smoked 46-10. According to Wikipedia, the Bears set Super Bowl records for sacks (7) and fewest rushing yards allowed (7), and the 36-point margin was a record until the 49ers put a 55-10 whuppin' on the Broncos four years later.
