All but two NFC teams have made it to the Super Bowl in the past 20 years.
Over 70% of teams in the NFL (23 of 32) have made it to the Super Bowl in that span, even with the recent Patriots/Colts/Steelers surge.

The MLB can't boast that percentage. While we're at it, since we're using the Patriots/Colts/Steelers as a reference, it seems only fair to point out that the Yankees/Red Sox/Braves account for almost 40% of all WS appearances in the last 20 years.

I get what you're saying, but it isn't exactly fair to include the Braves in there considering they are in the opposite league. Obviously the NFC has been plenty paritiful. I hope that's a word.
