Superbowl score ratios

First of all, these aren't ratios, they're just pairs of numbers.  If 
they were ratios, the first one would be 7/2 instead of 35/10.

Second, you have chosen to arrange these so that one sequence is the 
winner's score, and the other is the loser's.  But you could just as 
well arrange it with one sequence being the NFC/NFL team's score, and 
the other the AFC/AFL team's.

Third, why start with the Super Bowl?  Why not include NFL championship 
games from the years before there was a Super Bowl?  (Of course, this 
would contradict point 2.)

Fourth, this would open up a whole can of worms.  If we allow it, why 
not:
* games won by the losing team in the nth World Series.
* winning and losing scores in the nth World Cup final.
* Number of gold medals won by the United States in the nth modern 
Olympics.
* etc., etc., etc.

All in all, I think this is a bad idea.
