Didn't see one so made my own

Already did my favorite one, maybe will revisit

But to start off, without looking it up of course, when was the last Super Bowl to happen in January?

Very close and in a tricky way which I'll explain after the answer...but that's not it.

OK everyone's bored with my question

The answer is SB 37, Bucs over Raiders. SB 36 was played in February 2002 but only because 9/11 pushed the schedule ahead a week.

SB 38 was the first scheduled February date.

One guy that I've always liked and respected, despite playing for the team I hate most.

Terrell Buckley disputes that Butler was the inventor of the Lambeau Leap. Buckley claimed in an interview that he did it in a preseason game earlier that year.

Recall that story.

This is how I best remember Buckley (#27).... at the 1 minute mark in below video... trailing Harper by 5 yards and then falling over George Teague.

Not a stellar career with Packers, played better with Dolphins afterwards and got a Super Bowl ring with Pats.

Here is a NFL trivia for you.

In 1972 two owners traded their franchises. No teams moved or players were involved, the owners simply swapped ownership of the teams. Name the owners and the teams involved. Remember, no internet search is allowed.

Alvin Harper could make a lot of guys look silly in his prime. Never amounted to anything after leaving Dallas though.

The only guess I could make is Art Modell and Robert Irsay trading the Colts and Browns as they both ended up moving the teams. But it is a total guess.

One of them is correct. In a weird twist the other owner ended up moving his team also.
