Thanks to
@mystery-ak for covering for me while I "boycotted."
Watched very little of the game, about all I noticed was that gawd-awful scorebug. Way too big and quite frankly, looked unfinished. That was a graphic they'd use to go in and out of commercials with in the 1990s.
Halftime show... look. Kendrick Lamar improved compared to his being the worst part of the show three years ago... and I give him credit for having a concept. But whatever the concept was supposed to be, it was incomprehensible. The only thing that made it remotely watchable, other than SZA being surprisingly good, was Samuel L. Jackson as the narrator. But even that... he's not as fun when he's not allowed to swear. Anyone who thought that was some sort of profound statement, and I've seen that take quite a bit this morning, is fooling themselves. Ooh, he did that "controversial" diss track toward Drake! How daring! Puh-lease. Drake hasn't been relevant since "Hotline Bling" and that was a decade ago now.
I'm hoping Buffalo takes some notes on how the Eagles did what they did last night. They should've been the ones in that game but who knows what would've happened had that game been called fairly? I mean... the NFL and Swift got all they wanted from the Chiefs, there wasn't going to be any real profit from them winning, and Kelce apparently has no plans to propose in public, which might have been the only benefit she would've gained from a Chiefs win. The NFL likely would've had to pay more for licensing to Pat Riley for that "threepeat" trademark.
Anyway, I did put some money on the Chiefs so that if they did end up winning, I could at least have profited. I had an inkling suspicion something was up watching the betting line slowly creep toward the Eagles as the week went on; clearly some whales knew something was going on. Best money I ever lost.
The No Threepeat Curse lives on, the Curse of Kirk Cousins is dead.
