Magnumutz 02-01-2009 02:23 PM

That's not a sport... just a pretext for big men to hug :D

Actually, having checked, it would appear that is is being televised live by the BBC (11pm onwards) - but I doubt we will get your adverts. :)

SBlueman 02-01-2009 04:33 PM

You know I am all about the game today. I want the Cardinals to win but think the Steelers will take it. Protecting Kurt Warner will be key.

UncoderMom 02-01-2009 04:38 PM

Heres a good laugh for you Paul. American commercials. haha

Rooting for my hometown steelers. :D

UncoderMom 02-01-2009 07:24 PM

My brother is in Pittsburgh too. Actually Carnegie.

ETA and I'm just outside of Tampa. I bet he wishes he where here and at the game. LOL

King Kovifor 02-01-2009 07:26 PM

Ah... I wanna go to CMU. But that's completely unrelated to Carnegie. But I'm actually wearing a steelers jersey - so unlike me. I don't watch football! haha

Ryan Ashbrook 02-01-2009 07:43 PM

Go Cards. :D

KTBleeding 02-01-2009 07:45 PM

I will be getting drunk off of Knob Creek and Bulleit Bourbon, then probably enjoying a random amount of commercials. If they're anything like last year, I'll never watch a Superbowl again.

Americian football players are a lot bigger than Rugby or footy players.

Average height: 6 feet, Average weight: 227+ pounds...

Then when they take all their gear off, 4 foot 2 and 110 pounds :D

Compare that with this guy, who's had major reconstructive surgery to his nose, but 2 hours out the hospital he's playing Rugby, and getting a right kicking.

What a guy :D

(Only pulling your leg there buddy ;) )

Reycer 02-02-2009 12:03 AM

There's been some pretty good commercials this year. My fav so far has been the Dorito's Crystal Ball Commercial. WOW! Now that was funny.

Zachariah 02-02-2009 01:35 AM

Not watched a game since the Bears did "The Super Bowl Shuffle" back in 1985.

SBlueman 02-02-2009 02:36 AM

Well whoever watched the game got to enjoy a game for the ages. That was an instant classic with a great finish and plenty of big plays and drama all around. If you didn't enjoy that game and appreciate it merely from the competitive nature then football will never be for you.

KTBleeding 02-02-2009 02:36 AM

Man, I was one off. I predicted a 28 - 23 win.. even though I wanted the Cardinals to win it, basically because the Steelers have won it what, seven times now? And AZ has never played more than one playoff game other than this year? I could be off, I'm not a big football guy, and I'm a little tipsy off of what my previous post said I would be.

Roms 02-02-2009 03:38 AM

That was a good game, I enjoyed it. :D

Brandon Sheley 02-02-2009 03:42 AM

We watched it and talked about the commercials on twitter :D

Roms 02-02-2009 03:56 AM

Not really excited about the teams this year, but add a "wee dram of scotch" and it all turns out fine. LOL!!

Wayne Luke 02-02-2009 01:15 PM

During the Superbowl, I was relaxing in a heated pool in Palm Springs and hanging out with 15 friends. Its a yearly retreat... No television, no cellphones, no internet, and most importantly no kids.

I understand that Pittsburgh won.. Didn't even know who was playing until Friday though. Now I have to go look up all the commercials on Youtube because that is the only important thing about the Super Bowl in my book.

Longest interception return in Super Bowl history, they said. 'Twas amazing.
