<![CDATA[Team Of The Decade Preview]]>At the end of the Super Bowl I will give the results of the Team of the Decade competition, but, in the mean time, here is a little preview....

Here is how the Team of the Decade standings are determined: A team gets 10 points for winning the Super Bowl, 6 points for losing the Super Bowl, 3 points for losing in the AFC/NFC title game, and 1 point for making the playoffs. Two years of this decade have gone by and the standings after the last title game is as follows:

Packers 10+1 11 pts

Giants 10 10 pts

Patriots 1+6 7 pts

Steelers 6+1 7 pts

Ravens 1+3 4 pts.
