Superbowl

[Tallguy88]

Great game. Really put Cam in his place. Peyton goes out with a bang, and Cam has at least another decade of good QBing ahead of him to try again.

Great choice of Von Miller for MVP. He really deserved it.

And Denver needs to fire that thug Aqib Talib. That guy is nothing but a dangerous liability. He could have broken that guy's neck with that facemask.

Bennie has no money. He is in very deep with his bookies and owes everyone. His gambling is out of control. He makes a good salary, but blows it every weekend chasing his losses. He was clear with the bookies after the Nebraska/UCLA game Christmas, but he did not walk away.

So far this is a really crappy year for commercials. The Audi ad with the astronaut was ok.

I liked the ultrasound Deritos and the Prism commercial was hilarious.

I'm not a big football fan, but I enjoyed this Superbowl. We were at a small party and I just relaxed and focused on the game (I had brought sausage cheese puffs--everyone had brought finger foods, so there wasn't much work for the hostess, either).

I always choose the underdog team, so I was glad Denver won. I thought the half time show was much more tasteful and non-controversial than some of the previous ones I've seen.

It was a little gay pride-ish... but I like Cold Play. It's not the usual Superbowl material.

sorry to hear that.

Wow. Never in a million years did I expect this outcome. Too bad Manning didn't have a good game from the sound of it (didn't see the game), but going out with a ring is nice. Makes up for the years he was fantastic but didn't get a ring because of a lame defense.

It was a defense game on both sides. Cam didn't do anything either. They kept hitting him and he deserved every hit. Denver deserves props for their defense. Denver were never the underdogs. The media puffed up the fig newton and he got what he deserved.

The Pro Choice crowd didn't like the Doritos one because it "humanized fetuses"

I knew there would be controversy but it was funny. The NFL came close to their own pro life with their Superbowl babies commercials.

None of my teams were close to the Superbowl, so I didn't have a favorite. I suspected Carolina to win, and that would have been fine considering how good they were all season. But I'm glad to see 'the old guy' win, as I'm one myself. I wish they'd have at least mentioned Brock, though, local boy who did good. ..without him the Broncos wouldn't have made it.

I have been one of those people who answers the favorite team question: my two favorite teams are Green Bay and whoever is playing Denver.
So, great, Denver won. Fine. Can Manning just go away now? I've never liked him.

Even more bizarre than the Super Bowl:

 

[Mountain_Girl406]

The commercials on a whole were disappointing, and the Pepsi monstrosity was awful

Bennie was planning on betting Denver and the under, but could get no credit with his bookies. He wanted money from me to make his bet, which he would have won and which also would have covered what he already owes the bookies.

Now it is my fault........

Oh brother. Sorry you have to deal w/this (still).

The media puffed up the fig newton .

And they're still doing it, gee what a surprise:

The media sure is in love w/this guy. They'll make excuses and rationalize for him no matter how much of a jerk he acts like (to put it kindly). God forbid they should tell it like it is. Grow up, Newton, and at least try to pretend you have a little class (like the Panther coach and other players did). This is why people loved seeing you lose this game. It's not a "race thing." It's a jerk thing.

Its why the Patriots happy to let Talib go.

He caused many penalties with his cheap shots, which would negate good yardage.

He's a dirty player.

I said prior to the game that Cam Newton was overrated . He talked a lot of smack but in the end he couldn't back it up.

He should try to emulate Tom Brady or Peyton Manning, both class acts.

um, I'll take the second nominee for $100 Alex.

Brady has never acted untowardly in his career. And he has more bling then both Superbowl QB's combined. Boom!

 

[Gnarwhal]

Of course we what Denver to win...is it bad of me to wish Can Newton get his lights knocked out? He needs to get hit one good time, teach him never to run again. I don't really want him to get hurt, but he needs to lose.

You sound like my dad, haha. He's been saying all season "someone needs to knock the snot out of that guy!"

I'm glad Denver took it, now I kind of hope Manning retires just because if he plays any longer he won't retire on top.

Plus I took the points on the spread, I called the final score would be 23-10, so +/- 1... I got like 12 bucks.

You can't be serious. He's one of the ringleaders of the Cheatriots.*

I have no idea what "boom" means. Was that the sound of Brady destroying his cell phone

Good thing I'm not a gambler. I would have bet the house on the Panthers regardless of point spread.
