Anyone watching Super Bowl?

Refs more important than the teams in that game

Born about 50 years too early to be able to enjoy that halftime show. Give me rock, blues, and even country. Hip hop or rap, nope.
Game was going well and moving along until the refs started throwing flags on stuff that had been allowed earlier in the game. Hate it when they do that, either call everything all game long or don't, starting to call stuff in the fourth quarter is asinine.

Yeah the PI non call that allowed the Bengals to score their TD should have been brought back.
The call on the goal line on the Bengals LB #55 Logan Wilson covering Kupp was nonsense and appeared to be a make up call keeping the Rams TD drive alive. Wilson had tight coverage and batted the ball down perfectly from Kupp.

Stafford and Kupp were very determined to get a score though.

Tough to see the Bengals lose like that. Although all the attention was given to Burrow, the Bengals defense was excellent and deserves a lot of recognition. Hubbard, Hendrixson and Wilson are excellent defenders. All 11 on D, actually.

Nice to see new teams in the big game. Bengals fans have a nice future. Their head coach is a young guy with a brilliant future and a CLASS ACT.

They gotta lot of time to make up if they want to get me back.
I dang near hung it up after the 2020 nonsense and the cop hater took over the NFL.

Didn't they have a pair of cop haters making that noise they do for halftime?
Didn't watch a minute all season.

Had to catch up on some late night work, as well as help my dad with a shower. Did watch some of the game. Honestly, no where close to a fan of either team, but was hoping the Bengals would have won it.

Did want to see if there were any good commercials. The time I did watch the game, had to laugh as I was trying to figure out exactly what Matthew McConaughey was "selling". Fell over dead when it was salesforce. I despise that software and have yet to meet anyone who works for large corporations who use it.

It’s frustrating and I applaud your resistance.
NFL still has a huge following.
I like most of the players and coaches and the of course the game itself, but I hate the NFL organization. NFL and Goodell bends itself like a pretzel to appease what is acceptable to what the main stream media says.

I'd watch it if i could. Seahawks keep teasing us.

I've got nothing whiny to say like some of these whiner.

I understand the reasons, many listed in previous posts, not to like the NFL. I agree with most but still enjoy it mainly do to the time with family. My father in-law is a huge chiefs fan and we rarely miss a game. Everyone gathers at our house each week and we try to have lunch or dinner as well depending on game time. One of the few times we all get together as a family. We have so many great memories and often laugh until it hurts. I just can't imagine giving up that family time over a political grievance as I doubt we would find another reason to get together that many times during the year.

Didn't even know it was on yesterday until the half pints asked if they could go to the the church youth group super bowl party. Asked the boy this morning how the game was and he said he watched until the first commercial break then got board and some of the boys just played cards. Said it's fun to play football, not fun to watch it on TV and I can't argue with him. They did truly lose any chance with me once all the anthem and anti-police stuff started.

I understand, just skip supporting the woke companies that fund this anti American ****. It is all about money and the blatant lack of "them" understanding their actual customer, and not the approval of the minority media and their socialist agenda.

For the most part I do but on the NFL I've decided the family time is more important to me. I could do without the NFL, wouldn't bother me any, but it's something several family members enjoy so if they want to watch the games I'll enjoy the time I'm able to spend with them.

 

[Rustyiron]

I'm saying enjoy the game, just skip buying the products advertised during it.
The family time is priceless.
Look to the failure of the Olympics going on. It's earned the title of "the genocide Olympics ".
This will not be overlooked by the company's buying the air time.

I don't watch the Bowl much anymore, especially when I don't have a favorite team in the game.

Since the NFL went to the wild card playoff format, the SB teams often aren't the best in their respective divisions. Any team can have an off day as was evident in all the playoff upsets this season.

 

[Ortimber]

Nope. Finished up putting air power assisted steering in my M35A2. Way more fun than watching the NFL.

 

[tradosaurus]

Nada! Would rather watch grass grow. Halftime show nothing more than Sodom and Gomorrah.

 

[stso9d]

half time was pure garbage. why do people think grabbing your crouch is cool or showing your lard butts is cool? it is gross and offensive - at least to me it is.

The Lawrence Welk Orchestra was already booked.

I get your meaning, but there's a ton of entertainers between those 2 extremes, especially in the morality and scum culture departments.

I became an Eagles fan because when my father was stationed overseas and when my mother and I living were living with my grandmother, we'd go up to my uncles place and watch the Eagles game with my 4 cousins every Sunday during football season.

Even after my dad retired, Church Sunday morning at 9 (grandmothers local town), get out at 11:30, go up to my uncles town up the road, stop at a local bakery, pick up fresh bread, then watch the Eagles around 1 after some great ham and cheese sandwiches on the bakers bread.

Those games as a kid have stayed with me all my life.

Honestly, football has never paid me a cent in my life, and at the end of the day, the game (who wins or loses) really doesn't affect my life (way more important things), but even last night watching a quarter with my dad is always a fun thing.

Thing is, even when we actually went to the Vet to watch the Eagles in person, when I got older, I was the type of person who would want to leave in the 3rd quarter because I didn't want to deal with all the people trying to leave the parking lot at the same time

Didn't turn TV on at all, have absolutely no desire to watch anything put on by a bunch of over paid prima donnas.

Funny, I remember my mother telling me that my grandmother thought that Elvis the Pelvis was the devil himself.

Rap and country is my lease favorite. That said, my dad was taking his shower when halftime was going on, and I thought the show was very well choreographed as I had to wait for him and watched it. Didn't realize that Dr. Dre could play the piano, and even snoop dog became friends witn Martha Stewart. Although I wasn't a huge fan overall of the music played, still thought it was well done.

I remember working in DC and I was the only white guy at the pizza hut for lunch with a group of black co workers. I was complaining to them that I had no clue what kind of music was on the jukebox, and the lyrics made no sense to me as a white guy LOL. One guy asked me to explain the lyrics of "Stand" by REM (who was big at the time on the charts). I looked at him and told him his point was very valid LMAO

Will note that the chick singing in the short shorts shouldn't have been wearing them LOL
