In the worst results-reporting since Other Guy defeated What’s-His-Face, the NFL Network — you know, the network with “NFL” in its name — declared the San Francisco 49ers the winners of Super Bowl XVLII, knocking off the Ravens 34-31.
@bubbaprog shared this picture via Twitter. I don’t see how the football channel could get the result of the most important-possible football game incorrect moments after it happened, but I have three theories:
1. The NFL overturned the result, because whatever, they do what they want.
2. @bubbaprog lives in an alternate, concurrent, ‘Sliders’-style universe where Joe Flacco’s eliteness wasn’t vindicated and the 49ers really did pull off the victory. Also in this universe, Ray Lewis is an accessory to NOT stabbing a guy.
3. The NFL Network is dumb.
Theory 2 is the most reasonable one so far.

In other sports news, @NFLNetwork posted a new poll to their Fan Axxess portion of their webpage, with the question: “Do you think the NFL is worked worse than pro wrestling?”
–So far the poll is at 51% yes, 49% no.
A transposed score. Incendiary.
ugh, if only :(
