Default Super Bowl

The stadium looks nice, weather is good, great location for a Super Bowl, may the best team win. I don't know much about the teams this year , I like it that way, with no horse in the race it is less stressful, lol. The pre-game reference to Franco Harris was great, it is sad that he is not alive today to mark the 60 year celebration.

Will see how the entertainment unfolds. I don't know much about Coco Jones. Green Day may be alright depending on what songs they sing. Brandie Carlisle is talented but she can be a bit low energy with the songs she performs, I don't know much about Charlie Puth. Bad Bunny is an unknown to me for obvious reasons, and I'd rather watch any performer besides Kid Rock ( I hope the two people who watch Kid Rock enjoy the performance).

Seeing Jon Bon Jovi was a teaser, I wish he could have sang a tune. The Ozzie Osbourne intro was cool.

The football was not much to speak of but there is a good chance I may be biased.
i suspect somebody who got a 9-0 square was bumming before.

I haven't enjoyed a half time show in I don't know how long. Tonight is no different.......I appreciate the cultural aspect, but........

Neither option was calling out to me.

No commercials have made me laugh out loud either.

It is a defensive battle, I'd like to see the Patriots close up the score in the 2nd half and make it a closer game.

I have no opinion on the half-time show, I don't understand a single word in Spanish so it went over my head. Lady Gaga was cool, Ricky Martin was a nice touch but he only sang in Spanish. I think my wife liked it. I did hear Bad Bunny mention Canada, so that was nice. The crowd seemed to enjoy it, I think.

I heard Lady Gaga sing, and didn't realize it was her. Didn't notice Ricky Martin either. I wasn't really paying attention.

The game is not holding my attention...I'm feeling bad for Drake Maye. The Pats need to score.

some interesting plays but it was a blowout. Patriots started moving way too late in the game, 3/4 of a game too late.

IMHO: The Seahawks just out played the Patriots plain and simple. Especially the Seahawk's Defense.

I guess that you missed it because of all of the advertising references to the "BIG GAME"? That is because unless a company is an official sponsor of the S**** Bowl one cannot use the term S**** Bowl or the NFL will sue one from here to kingdom come and back again. IMO: What else would one expect from an organization that claims to be NOT FOR PROFIT?
