1. LOYALTY: Seahawks fans are loyal, so if your team can't be in the Super Bowl, you at least root for your Conference representative.
2. HEALING: it softens the blow to know the Seahawks were eliminated by the eventual World Champions.
3. PLANNING: the Bears are on the 2007 schedule and recent SB winners have had bad seasons the following year.
4. ATTRITION: SB winners usually have their coaching staff poached by other teams, again weakening a potential Conference rival.
5. SEX: because Alex Flanagan is covering them during SB week for the NFL and she's much better looking than Kara Henderson!
