Didn’t the Mets & Jets win it in 1969. Technically the Jets was in 1968.

I wish they would 1960s graphics like they did for Super Bowl I when NBC and CBS had the telecast in 1967.

Programming on something like the NFL network is hard to come by. Hell, ESPN repeats Sports Center over and over again all day. Of course you get the dumb talk shows ranting on and on about nothing as well.....

When ESPN isn’t repeating they’re just boring and PC. That’s why I watch it much less often now.

Hey, some of us enjoy football and participate on the FR threads regularly. No one said you needed to visit and post that childish BS

I would recommend those options.

Your liver will thank you for it.

Your bladder may not though.

I recognize this ref. I believe I heard once that this crew has a reputation for calling alot of penalties.

Sack nullified with penalty. You can’t give TB second chances.

That last “illegal contact” call was the biggest bunch of BS I’ve seen in a while.

No touchie after 5 yards.

Looked weak to me.
