Did you actually watch the game or did you focus on the commercials?

I would not argue that.

The telecast probably doesn’t have a separate theme song for negroes either.

The KC Chiefs were losing the game until Taylor Swift stood up and clicked the heels of her ruby red slippers three times.

“A lot of conservatives are very will to give them money by watching”

I understand that I’m helping them make money from advertisers by watching, but it’s a bit of stretch to say I’m “giving them money” by watching a free broadcast. My bank account didn’t budge on Sunday, one way or the other. And I haven’t yet been convinced to purchase a single thing that was advertised on Sunday. No Dunkin Donuts, no new BMWs, no State Farm insurance.

Weekend TV is always at it’s dullest point nothing changed.

At least there was a Columbo marathon on.

Interesting that one Tucker Carlson interview on Twitter last week had 200 million views...and counting.

I’m not sure what “weekend TV” is, but I assume you’re not a sports fan if the that’s how you categorize the Super Bowl.

You’re right.

There’s no way US football is more watched than World Cup.

**Bugs and circuses**

The hype, before, during, and after is indeed circus quality. Pre-game has music intros and exits that present a sense of excitment. Men almost yelling at each other, and the cameras, excitedly. Women reporters with faces painted as exquisitely as any clown. CGI graphics (imagery that doesn’t really physically exist) to dazzel and hypnotize the football sheep.

America is addicted to the sports drug. The need for a ‘fix’ on a regular basis is epidemic. The hours that could have been spent on something productive in life, gone.

“The KC Chiefs were losing the game until Taylor Swift stood up and clicked the heels of her ruby red slippers three times.”

There’s a cohort of Swifties who believe just that... that TS’s “magic” carried the day.

It was a good game. Typically the playoff games are better than the super bowl.

You are spot on, and the NFC North will be the Division to watch in 2024! GO PACK!

The NFL has learned to tone down its wokeism. It hurt them big time during the kneeling era as TV viewership fell dramatically. I was one who did not watch an NFL game for two years.

The "End Racism" messages in the end zones are annoying (America is NOT a racist country), but at least they're not pushing it hard.

As for the "black national anthem," it was sang maybe 30 minutes (long before the players took the field) before the "Star Spangled Banner." It was introduced by the song's name ("Lift Every Voice and Sing"), and no one was asked to stand. It was soft-peddled, which has angered some woke activists.

Well said.

Proudly, I didn’t watch a down, and I didn’t even know who won until yesterday. I still don’t know who sang the national anthem, or if there even was one.

I did see here that there was a “N###o” “national” anthem (thank you, Steve Cohen (D), for your continued racism and stupidity).

Go Pack ;)
I don't think the Lions will be “sneaking up” on anybody next year, but I believe they will be just as competitive. You should give us a run for the Division next year. ;)
