“I’m tired of watching Super Bowls in suites.”
It was a line Micah Parsons played for a chuckle, but it speaks to two significant and serious truths.
One, the Cowboys linebacker is already among the league’s elite A-listers. At only 24 years old and entering just his third pro season, he’s the kind of VIP celebrity fixture who is invited to and shows up at every major event, even if he’s just hanging out in a luxury suite.
And two, he craves to play in a championship in a way that is almost painful.
“It weighs a lot,” Parsons said of his Super Bowl dreams in a recent episode of The Pivot Podcast. “That’s why I want it early. I want it early. That’s why I say if I win a Super Bowl, I’ll never have to worry about anything ever in my life. It’s different, bro; the names that hold so much weight in Dallas? It really blows my mind how much Michael Irvin still is a legend in Dallas. He walks the street like a god. I’ve never seen it like that, ever. I want it early. I need it bad.”
