Live in one of the cities that played. Thought they won with the fireworks, but was kinda pathetic this year. Was told apparently they were getting thrashed and it was only halftime so people must have been setting off shit they got instead of staying up.
Good. I was worried they'd make another go at raising taxes for their stadium and would have a good chance if they won.
This superbowl was awful honestly. Pregame performers were bad and had no energy, halftime show was awful to listen to if you didn't know Kendrick's music already, and the game was a beat down. The only saving grace was mahomes flopping on the big stage after everyone hyped that team up for the 3peat
I mean, how was the game? Surely you don't watch it for the singers.
The game was extremely one-sided and the chiefs looked like what I expected. Strong defense, weak offense that couldn't do anything against a better defense. But the entire year the announcers talked about how great mahomes was, and how they were going to just turn it up when it was superbowl time. That didn't happen
You think they're scared of the CFP? I thought college football was worse than ever this year.
Its on but not paying too much attention. Hard to find any joy in the world right now.
It isn't being provided in a way I want to consume, so no.
Two random groups of primitive brawlers fight over a ball that is not even round. All while serving ads, ads, and more ads. The perfect American sport.
Although you could make it even more American by handing those players some guns.
Usually I look forward to it and watch it every year. This year I have no desire to watch all the American patriotism that surrounds the game...
I'll have it on the second monitor of the computer. I agreed to lead a roleplay thing in a mud game I play in. Accidentally days got messed up so it's this week and not next. Once that's done I'll sit on the couch and eat taquitos and try and understand downs again.
It's kind of a funny thing, I don't think I can miss the super bowl. I used to play football at lunch in middle school, and loved watching and following it then. Once I learned about concussions, I pretty much stopped watching. Not a huge fan of the halftime shows lately, and the ads have definitely gotten worse. The thing is the super bowl is just a great time to go out and hang out with friends, so I'm going to watch it every year for a while.
No? What does the superbowl have to do eith Midwest emo music?
Came to say this.
Nope. Haven't watched a single super bowl since before the 13 second game where the Bills lost to the Chiefs in the divisional round. The game was so much less painful to watch when the Bills never made the playoffs for 17 years. Now it's too heart breaking
Never been a football fan. But I very much want to see the entire stadium call Drake a pedophile at halftime.
It was awesome
And they did
I'll watch it because I'm in the UK but I don't really want to see the refs hand KC another win.
Go Bears! (Been supporting them since 1984 and thought I'd picked an absolute winner).
Nah. I don't really care unless my team (Steelers) is playing in it. Though, I will watch Kendricks halftime show performance afterwards, hoping that he decides to give a big "Fuck you" to drumpf, while ignoring drake entirely (the ultimate diss). But today is Leg day, and thou shalt keep holy the day of Legs, so I'll probably catch some while it plays at the gym.
Hopefully the eagles win, so they can snub drumpf like they did last time. The chiefs would probably accept the invitation to the white house and be all giddy about it 🙄
Yes. I know how shitty the league is but my family is in love with football so why not. Not really cheering for either team.
Ita almost impossible to avoid the shit now. I know plenty of corps are horrible and I still buy from them, in fact its rarer to find a corp that's not shitty than one that is. But if I stop supporting anyone whose business I didn't agree with then I'd probably turn to dust tbh.
i love my Seahawks and I usually catch the Superbowl but IDGAF about the chiefs winning any more and the eagles are not exciting
the commercials are shit. the halftime show is shit
only the gathering matters
Yeah, don't care for the teams but it's a reason to hang out with my friends
Yes
I’ll have it on in the background
Nope.
Kinda done with football now given the overal fanbase around me are MAGA heavy.
Same! I was looking forward to seeing Kendrick Lamar perform the halftime show. But I will just look it up later on or tomorrow on YT. And fingers crossed that Donny gets booed by the crowd.
Not going to watch but I will be looking up highlight clips of the crowd booing Trump.
Tempted to go to a sports bar to laugh at all the chuds that get mad each time Taylor Swift shows up on screen for 5 seconds.
God forbid people enjoy entertainment in their free time
sorry, i sometimes forget how sensitive sportsball fans are
Why don’t you cough up something you like so we can mock it for no reason
lol ok, video games and reading
but i think you're mistakenly assuming that because you're deeply concerned about having everyone's approval for what you like, then everyone else must be too. i'm not.
