We know, we know, it’s hard for Steelers fans to root for any team that isn’t their's in the Super Bowl—especially when one of those teams is the Ravens.

Still, either Baltimore or the San Francisco 49ers has to win Sunday’s big game in New Orleans. And we want to know, is it better to give the win to the Ravens and Ray Lewis (shudder) or the Niners.

If the Ravens win, well, no true Steelers fan wants that to happen. It also would give the legendary linebacker Lewis—he of the murder trial and now deer antler spray controversy—a final win before he retires. Can you say yuck?   

Ray-Ray, now that you’re retiring, can you promise we’ll never have to see you dance to “Hot in Herre” when you step on the field at M&T Bank Stadium ever again?

On the other hand, if the 49ers win, they’ll join the Steelers in having the most Lombardi trophies in NFL history. Indeed, San Francisco is using the “Quest for Six” as the team’s slogan as they try to nab their sixth Super Bowl title.

Personally, we at Patch don’t think that’s nearly as catchy as “One for the Other Thumb.” And if you didn’t get that reference, your blood doesn’t run black and gold!

Tell us, is it better to root for Lewis and the Ravens or the 49ers in the Super Bowl? Can you even stomach cheering for one of them? Take our poll or leave your opinion in the comment section below.
