Tim Brown just wants to state the facts. Let’s be honest the latest edition of the Super Bowl is just around the corner.

During the festivities those that vote on the Pro Football Hall of Fame will get together and pick the 2013 class.

Tim Brown was never a part of a Super Bowl winning class. Some feel as if his Hall of Fame bid could be hampered by this fact.

As you will see him say moving forward, I am not saying that is why he said what he said what you are about to read…I am just stating facts.

  • This charge is nothing new. When Tim Brown retired he made the same charge. What's sad it that it's true and no one takes him seriously.

    Tampa Bay intercepted 5 passes and ran three of them back for touchdowns in their Super Bowl victory over the Raiders. Otherwise, the 49-24 game would have been 28-24 and well within reach of the Raiders winning. What has Tampa Bay done since? Nothing. What has Gruden done since? Nothing.

    Take this charge a bit more serious.
