Is there a difference between the Super Bowl and a League Championship?

Is the Super Bowl just a glorified version of a league championship? Was there anything different in getting either?

before there were Superbowls, there were decades and decades of NFL Champs.

To me, there is no difference.

Yea thats what I was thinking but on another message board I posted the NFL page of the record book and they say it does not count if its not a Super Bowl.

Super Bowl's since the merger are simply League Championships.

I would say the biggest difference..... is ...if the last time your team won the big game it was called a "championship" I would say your franchise is pathetic....take for instance...The Eagles.....the last time they won the big game was in 1960 when it was called a "championship"....LOL!!!!!!

It's not about the steak, it's about the sizzle!

But it always bothered me that the World Series does not include teams from all over the world.

I agree. To dismiss the history of this game, especially pre-Super Bowl, is a big disservice to many, many people.
