I know this pathetic, pitiful little girl, raised in Denver and dressed all in orange and blue, pompoms in her hand, a homemade Bronco logo stitched across the front of her shirt. A real loser.

No matter what alliterative flights of fancy New York's tabloid headline writers charter, coupling Jets with juggernaut or turning their "S" into Super Bowl, they're making the trip alone. "It's one game," said Wayne Chrebet, who caught two of Neil O'Donnell's five touchdown passes in New York's 41-3 victory over the Seahawks on Sunday. "It's in perspective. It's one game, not the Super Bowl. We're 1-0." Chrebet just began his third season as a Jet, and this is the first time he has been 1-0.

Reporters were lined up three deep around Kelly, Aikman, Smith and Thomas, but Lingner, Crafts, Johnston and Barnett have roles to play in Super Bowl XXVIII. They have stories to tell, and like the game's best-known stars, they will earn $38,000 each for a victory, $23,500 for a loss. In most cases, beyond the numbers on their back, the supporting cast goes unnoticed, unless touched by fate.

January 27, 1994 | RICH TOSCHES, SPECIAL TO THE TIMES: Tosches, who moved to Colorado from Woodland Hills nine months ago, will spend Sunday watching the game with a new circle of idiots
After XXVII Super Bowls, memories are stamped into the mind like the smoking brands on dumb, snorting steroid-fed bulls, which is sort of what you'll see if you watch Super Bowl XXVIII. I don't mean memories of the games themselves. Let's be honest about that. XXVII years of Super Bowls have produced the same amount of unforgettable, riveting moments as a Jim Nabors concert. I mean the real memories.

Come onnnnnnnn, Denver. Let's go Super Bowling, one more time, kids. Bring the whole Mile High gang up. Bring John Elway and his mile-wide smile. Bring Bobby Humphrey home to Hubert Humphrey's dome. Bring fresh prince of mid-air Vance--excuse me; the Vance--Johnson and his easel and oils. Bring Herr Mecklenburg, too. Bring everybody from Boulder and Bedrock and all those rocky Colorado towns for one more hike toward the mountaintop.

You would be hard-pressed to cram another scrap into their scrapbooks or another dollar into their wallets. John Elway and Warren Moon need accolades like they need Derrick Thomas in their backfields. Yet both quarterbacks, well into their 30s, push on into the 1990s in search of the same elusive carrot--a Super Bowl championship. No great career is complete without one. Ask Fran Tarkenton, or Dan Fouts.
