I'd like to see Tom Brady win another Super Bowl.

Bills! Remember back in the 90's they went to 4 straight Super Bowls ... and lost them all, hence the anagram Boy I Love Losing Super Bowls. I'd like to see a little redemption. Not a Bills fan per se, but will root for them this year.

my sentiment as well--Brady is NFL at it's finest--
These multi-talented newcomers are exciting to watch--Allen, Mahomes, Murray
They will rush

Rant alert!

I'll be glad when football season is over. After umpteen years of showing these games, the networks STILL don't know how to schedule enough time to show the game within the time slot they schedule. First, they have to talk about the game before it starts. Then they talk about it during the game. And, as if that wasn't enough, they have to talk about the game some more after the darned thing is over. Since they never allot enough time for all that, the program scheduled to show after the game will start late or show starting partway into the show. :x

Since they have no trouble talking about the blasted games, why the big, fat, holy, hairy heck an't they just allot more time for a blasted game and, if the game ends earlier than expected, fill up the extra time with their endless yammering about the game? No, wait, that would make too much sense. :roll:

Rant over. You are now being returned to your regularly scheduled thread.

the Buffalo Vs KC game was one of the best I've seen in a long time.
Looking forward to next weeks match ups.

If you would have told me at the beginning of the season the Super Bowl would be Rams vs. Bengals, I would have said: "WHO"?!?!?

Damn thanks for the reminder that the covid-bowl is tomorrow, I dont think I would want to head on out to the bar as it will be packed as the weather has been very nice and the malls packed today, same thing tomorrow. I wonder if its on cable in canada live? Might have to break my keto diet, been really good on it lately and today almost broke a sweat at squash today, pool was packed.

as well as the Players themselves,
another difference is the type of Advertising, that is being shown:
https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-60356210
Why are cryptocurrency adverts taking over the Super Bowl?

is that any better, than Medical Advertising ?.

Yep understand--(rams and bengals) who woulda thunk it. Not who I predicted (or wanted to see), but will still be a good watch
I'm with the Rams to win by 10

I read that the Pregame flyover by the military folks is going to be Unique this year
  • P-51 Mustang from the Air Force Heritage Flight Foundation, Chino
    A-10 Thunderbolt from Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona
    F-16 Fighting Falcon from Shaw AFB, South Carolina
    F-22 Raptor from Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia
    F-35 Lightning from Hill AFB, Utah
fighter aircraft.

so, I programmed our DVR to record the event...
I have no intention of watching that entire useless exercise.

Thanks for the info, its nice out today so I will probably end up missing the covid-bowl to get out riding my ebike since its the only nice weather for the next 4 days which is all I can trust a weather forecast to be, but 4 days is stretching it, 2 days is pretty accurate but 3 days is about the limit.

I will just watch the highlights, the covid-bowl half time show and of course watch the the funniest commercials all on youtube.

I am interested in the flyover aircraft that AZgl1800 mentioned, hopefully someone will do a podcast of the aircrafts history, hopefully Dan Carlin Hardcore History which takes him a very very long time to whip any of his podcasts out.
