That Anthem singer was way out of tune. I cringed.

I understand the Rams' Aaron Donald has intimated he'll retire if the Rams win. Quarterbacks throughout the league suddenly are rooting greatly for L.A.

Free Vulcan · « **Reply #3 on:** February 13, 2022, 06:27:19 pm »

Being a Bears fan, I have to root for the Bengals. I well understand the long droughts between Superbowl appearances, and I identify with the similar colors.

And Mary J. Blige is not gangsta rap, she is firmly R&B and can sing her butt off.

I wanted to see more of the historic fly-over. Less than 10 seconds? GMAFB .ass holes.

mountaineer · « **Reply #5 on:** February 13, 2022, 06:53:45 pm »

I guess I'll mosey downstairs and watch some of the game. Shall we take bets on how long the insufferable halftime show will take?

It pains me to type this, but this ENTIRE SuperBowl TV Production....the halftime show...EVERY COMMERCIAL is deliberate "Eff You" to Caucasians...the White Man.

I'm going back to STAY CLOSE.

Clearly we are not in their target demo. I have been listening to the radio feed which is about 15 seconds ahead of the feed I have on cable.

What is wrong with these people? American blacks are hardly more than 10% of the population. There are well over 100 different ethnic groups in this melting pot. Whites aren't even the majority in most urban jurisdictions.

Where do they think they are going with this black supremacist BS? Do they think the rest of the nation is just going to bow and kiss their batootie forever as 2nd class citizens?

DCPatriot · « **Reply #10 on:** February 13, 2022, 08:42:15 pm »

So it's now surprisingly 17-13 Bengals in the 3rd quarter.

...should be 21-13 Bengals, because there's no way on God's green earth the Bengals wouldn't have scored with 1st and goal at the 4 yard line instead of 1st and 10 from the 12...the receiver wasn't touched when he gained control of the catch. The refs blew in on National TV in the most important game of the year...and the Bengals settled for 3 points.

It's as if they actually had meetings and agreed that all accepted Super Bowl ads should favor the minority races only. Just like the Supreme Court...no Whites need apply.

I agree. Switched to Puppy Bowl during this evening's hip-hop extravaganza.

I wonder if GM realizes that they just paid to have their electric cars endorsed by the bad guy... a character literally named "Dr. Evil"?

The NFL and coverage of the NFL has been trending that way for years. Not just appealing to "Black Americans" but specifically to big city urban thug-culture Blacks. That's why I don't bother watching pre-game, halftime, or post-game shows anymore. I still watch the NFL, but using NFL Redzone. No commercials, no breaks, just going from one game to another, one play to another, with no interruptions for 7 hours.

I found access to the British radio feed (won't say how for legal reasons) for the Super Bowl. It's 15 seconds ahead of the cable feed, and no commercials.

Very nice!

At least the game this year isn't a blow-out.

I didn't watch any of the game or half time I'm just not a sports guy, but I knew what was coming as soon as I heard they chose a raging racist to put on the halftime show.

I liked watching the Superb Owl.

Owls are really interesting birds

ApartmentBoss @ApartmentBoss
No one can deny that based on the Super Bowl commercials & halftime show, ANYONE who knows nothing of America’s demographics would think the population was at least 90% black.

Of course, hardly anyone actually attending the game (and no celebrities in the luxury boxes, including the mayor, who must have held his breath for five hours) wore the mandated mask. But the kiddies in Los Angeles will be strapped up this morning to go to school.

Who will be accountable for the 💰 spent on 75,000 M95 masks for #SuperBowl , almost 0 of which (thankfully) are being used, & all of which will now have to be disposed of thus exacerbating the ongoing mask-induced environmental issues?

I’m sure the media will get right on this!

If you could watch only the actual game, it wasn't bad. A few bad calls that went in L.A.'s favor and the L.A. defense swarming Burrow (as everyone expected). Cooper Kupp lived up to expectations.
Granted, I probably didn't watch more than half the game, all told.
