Anyone Watching the Superbowl?

[Ene Uran]

I was told this forum was global, but I will ask the question anyway. This Sunday is Superbowl Sunday, when at least in the USA and countries that have US Military bases millions of sports watchers will be glued to the TV to watch the final glorious football game of the season. The sports involved is often overhshadowed by the very good commercials.

I will be watching, cheering and drinking with my friends.

Not planning on watching. I'm kind of sports-agnostic (or maybe the proper term would be sports-apathetic) , if that makes any sense.

It's on a Sunday, and my religion does not allow me partake in such spectacles and the associated sinful behaviour.

Good Lord, I feel sorry for you!

The Patriots will stomp the Giants and make Dwarfs out of them!

[twomers]

> I was told this forum was global,

This fact still holds true. You seem to be having some weird notion of what global *actually* means.

BTW, I am with EnderX on this one.

Yes I'll be watching, but only on a delayed broadcast.

So for myself, and many others who won't be watching it live, we would collectively appreciate if people didn't post messages with the final score in the topic title (for example).

HA! There's nothing nearly as fun about American Football as Real Futbal. And the thing is, American Football is fun. The World Cup murders the hell out of the Superbowl. We all know. Let's just stop pretending :P

And the thing is, American Football is fun. The World Cup murders the hell out of the Superbowl. We all know. Let's just stop pretending :P Bahhhhh... I've NEVER even seen the world cup!

Now I am getting curious too dear sos, pray tell me what does global "actually" mean?

Hey, we are almost there!!!! Just 24 hours away! Time to get excited, honed, stoned and have fun fun fun! Hell with the hangover!

[vegaseat]

I will watch it for the beer and pizza party, the halftime show, and the Budwiser commercials. I also hope to see some more or less spectacular plays! Maybe somebody runs over a ref for the fun of it.

It's true, Budwiser does make your bud wiser.

I've never liked American football -- too boring. European football (socker to us Americans) I like alot. So the answer to the poll is NO, I will not, nor have I ever, watched the Super Bowl. Instead I'll watch old Law And Order reruns, or Perry Mason if its on TV.

[jbennet]

i love those programmes

do you get the hallmark channel?
they show that sort of stuff alot there

What religion is that? And why is it sinful? (Unless you're referring to the drinking, etc.)

[joshSCH]

Some foolish religion that is simply trying to take advantage of its members and make money off them, probably.

BTW.. everyone vote on this petition to make Super Bowl Sunday an official American holiday!
