XL = 40

L = 50

hence them going with 50 instead of the worst letter in all of sports.

(not being a dick)  Just a heads up!

Are they sticking with the numbers instead of roman numerals from now on? I dont see SBLI sticking or anything under 56

great question.  I have no idea, thats up to the marketing gurus the NFL employs.

I remember reading about this a couple of years ago. They didn't want to use roman numerals since 50 = L. NFL didn't want "loss" or "loser" associated with the game (like the L in W/L), so they decided to just do regular numbers for this one. I think it will go back to roman numerals after this year.

Yeah I mentioned that earlier, but LI, LII, LIII looks kinda weird doesnt it?
