The whole pragraph I marked is pretty unencyclopedic except for the X-Files reference. Speculation on supernatural influence on Norwood is plainly out of place and unduly sympathetic to Norwood. But mostly, just out of place. -

However, no one has publicly suggested, or named, a "curse" that might be on the Bills (other than the X-Files character the
Cigarette Smoking Man who proclaimed in a famous episode that while he was alive the Bills would never win a Super Bowl), even though they have never won a World Championship, and the only times they went as far as they could go was in the
1964 and
1965 seasons, when they were the last two
American Football League Champions to be unable to face the NFL Champions in a world championship game. With the Bills having been a lackluster team through the late
1960s, the
O.J. Simpson years of the
1970s, and through most of the
1980s until the rebuilding under Levy, it would be a mistake to label such a hex "The Curse of Scott Norwood." If something supernatural and sinister prevents the Bills from winning a Super Bowl, Norwood is one if its victims, not the cause.
