I won't be watching either. Total Stupidity to be paid Millions of dollars to chase a ball around a field, and then think that your opinion is more important than mine. Just because you are rich. I hate them all, Sport entertainers, politicians and singers that think they can dance, but not play an instrument. .

I have to sit through it, at least moderately so. Wife is a career cosmetologist, and she watches it to conversationally interact with her post game clients. I dread it every year. But she makes me hot bean dip, and Rosetta cheeses dip. Both with crumbled ground beef and Frito Scoops. So I obey.

Anyone here NOT watching the toilet bowl tonight besides me? Going on 15 years for me! I've NEVER watched any Super Bowl or any sports in general. If they got paid a teacher's salary and were competing for their 'Christmas Bonus' then I might be interested........

If they got paid a teacher's salary and were competing for their 'Christmas Bonus' then I might be interested........ I had a few football cards when I was a kid. On the back side they always noted what the players did for work in the off-season. "Runs a car wash", "Sells insurance", etc.

Go Cowboys! I think the Lions are going to beat them. Billy Sims will run all over their defense and Gary Danielson is throwing well. With Doug English right in the middle protecting Gary he looks to have a good game.

You guys don't know nothin' - the Yankees are gonna sweep the series ! Personally I couldn't care less about the Wine & Cheese bunch playing against the Swifties. I don't care about football at all, especially since the kneeling BS, but I watch for clever commercials.

Stick a fork in me. I’m done. What a friggin waste. And that “half time” presentation? Whoever paid 7 mil for thirty minute air time REALLY got taken. Dragnet or Leave it to Beaver reruns had more substance.

The Half time stage was close to a failure in the last 30? seconds it appears. I suspect the ending was not as planned in the rehearsals. It looked in the wide camera shot as if the back of the stage platform was lifting noticeably, that is a definite aberration. That would have been worth watching.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

On the back side they always noted what the players did for work in the off-season. "Runs a car wash", "Sells insurance", etc. We have a supplier who employs a person named Greg Landry. If you were a Lions fan back in the '70's (I was) the name meant a lot. I asked, and indeed it was the same guy. He's has to be in his 70's at least, and here he is, still repping. Here in Detroit, it wasn't uncommon for athletes to work as sales reps in the off season. They used their "fame" to open doors for potential business.

In todays upside down world I think the whole TS deal and her BF are GREAT. Not because im a fan of hers or him, I could care less.... but look... a couple in there 30-s??? IN A TRADITIONAL RELATIONSHIP if nothing else should be applauded. Go figure, they could marry and have children and IMO that would be outstanding and possibly to some against current twisted so called social norms. Spent my afternoon doing our taxes. Ugh! I hate that more than I loathe Taylor Swift!
STOP POTATO HATE!

A couple of hours into the pre-game they interviewed Andy Reid and I think the second or third question was about tayler swift. Brother. As if the CBS Football crew isn't hard enough on the stomach, it got worse on a whole new level. It was at that point I knew I should have shut it off, but, like a car accident...... Knowing the scripted outcome of this nonsense, I plowed forward. Tony Romo's gushing diarrhea commentary from kick-off to talking over top of the game-winning touchdown was unbearable. He might want to cut back whatever it is he's on. An 11 out of 10 on the Schitt-Show meter. The best entertainment is the comments all over Twitter X; Kelce's cringe-epic "speech" is right up there

Been following the Chiefs since '91 when I lived in Columbia MO.
Lots and lots of disappointing years losing to the broncos and patriots in the playoffs, it's really fun to finally have a good team to watch.
Almost as much fun as trolling the "iT's RiGgEd! ThE rEfS hAvE a ScRiPt! tAyLoR sWiFt Is A sEcReT aGeNt!" crowd. It's amazing what the tin-foil hat guys will come up with. I guess it's easier on your ego than simply admitting the other team won.

I'm not in any way criticizing or making fun of people who don't watch, for whatever reason they choose not to watch. But there's a difference between "I don't watch" and "No one cares." The NFL has never been more popular than it is right now, and it dwarfs everything else. Until this year's SB, do you know what the most watched show ever was? Last year's SB.
Not a huge difference in fandom by age group either, though there is a little between younger/older vs. middle age.

I think when I say "nobody cares" I'm just wishing so, in order to penalize the league and players in order to stop the WOKE crap, bring ticket prices down as well as player's ridiculous salaries.

Free market economy at work. They earn what they earn because so many people are willing to pay to watch them do what they do. And that statement reminds me of what P.T. Barnum said so many years ago!

I'm 62 this year. I have never watched a Superbowl....or any US pro/college football game for that matter. Only ever saw two Canadian Football league championship games because we were invited to friends homes for "Grey Cup" parties and it seemed rude to decline.... I've never watched an NHL hockey game all the way through either....insufferably boring. Same deal with basketball...although I did attend a NBA game in Los Angeles 5 years ago while in town for meetings with one of our suppliers. They had arranged a box in the staples center as an evening out for our group and again, it would have been rude not to accept. Spent most of the evening at the bar talking business with a couple like - minded people. Watched a fair amount of baseball on TV as child & teen during the '70s, because my grandfather was a rabid fan, and if you wanted to spend time with him, that's what you did. He and I also travelled to "Sports Days" (kind of a combination of a county fair & baseball tournament for local teams) to watch games as well, but I never really maintained interest in the game after his passing. Just not my thing.....I was always more about music & motor-sports.
....evil is winning....
