Super Bowl V was a masterpiece compared to this one.
Pitchers and catchers report on Feb. 15..........
Thank God.
Then why suggest it?
The greatest four words of any winter.
I agree. I'll never watch an NFL game the same way again.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Wanna use an asterisk? Go right ahead. it's not like your opinion means anything.
Other than a questionable penalty call for a low block, the game was fairly and accurately called, and I'm not a real fan of either team. The only conspiracy is in your own mind.
No matter what the NFL does they just can't seem to get Peyton Manning into the Super Bowl. They tried to take out Pittsburgh, and when Manning decided to pitch another huge choke, Bettis was the "next best story".
Your team SUCKED, and was damn lucky to have the zebras lookin out for you.
Whatever. The Seahawks couldn't stop Pittsburg from converting a 3 and 28. Then they let themselves get burned on the most obvious gadget play in the world. Then they totally mismanaged the clock and cost themselves points at the end of both halves. Was that part of the NFL's conspiracy?
In San Francisco, pitchers and catchers report every day. :)
I wouldn't put this one in the top forty.
Gentlemen Start Your Engines!!!!
Daytona 500 Feb 19!!! WOOHOO
A poorly officiated game, yes, but not the only reason the Seahawks lost. Dropped passes, poor time management, missed field goals, & yes, penalties (not all of them were some evil NFL conspiracy) were other reasons Seattle lost.
Watching the "show" while making sure the mute button stayed depressed, I was reminded of the joke about two hookers, one of which had serviced Mick Jagger.
"What did Mick taste like?"
"Depends."
I have never seen so many commericals crammed into three hours.
I suggest a few less beers before watching the next game as it certainly affected your eyesight.
The suggestion that the NFL would enlist an entire squad of referees, risk totally destroying their multi-billion dollar sporting monopoly, and hand the game to their chosen team, in order to sell a few thousand more shirts, is beyond ludicrous.
It ranks up there with a faked moon landing in terms of plausibility.
