Super Bowl open thread


Since there's nothing going on today but some football game, here is your chance to comment on the game in a basketball-friendly atmosphere ... whatever that means. I think it's some team from New York versus some team from Massachusetts. Yay.

Oh, and a halftime performance by Madonna!

Happy Super Bowl

But what I really want to talk about is how much I hate the NBA All Star game!

Is your love worth the nausea it could bring?

And

A’m here to disagree

Meh

I changed my mind. I don’t want to talk about it right now.

I will make a Fan Post detailing how terrible the All-Star game is as the NBA event draws near.

I look forward to your disagreement.

Also, I think I’ve mentioned it, but “Mozgov Cocktail” is easily my favorite Nugget related screenname. Well done.

Quick: Which half time performance was the best in the last 15 years?

There is only one right answer.

04

because it allowed everyone to see how stupid the FCC is

Good guess, but ultimately incorrect

That was certainly the most memorable — who can even remember who played that year?

?

But the best actual music and performing .

Prince with his penis guitar!

actually I don’t remember any halftime shows past the last 5 or so years really. Fill me in

They were all terrible, really

But Prince was the right answer. Don’t remember that guitar, however.

I will watch, but I stopped caring about the NFL on January 15th.

I hate this matchup

sick of both teams, and just find it really uninteresting.

Totally agree

I would have been interested if either the ravens or 49ers made it.

Would be way more interested if it were Lady GaGa.

LOVE HER!

Well, not right now

When she is aging and no longer “edgy” who knows?

Think they’d let Madonna near one of these things back when she was selling a picture book called “Sex”?

Half of the viewers probably don’t even know who the hell Madonna is.

just worked on Madonna's new music video last week.

It’s amazing how young she looks in the video compared to when she was on the golden globes recently.

I’m a huge football fan, but I can’t seem to find any reason to be excited about this matchup

If you don’t care about the show at halftime, or the game does this mean you are watching for the … commercials?

That's

a reasonable conclusion Fly. Maybe I’m just too young to appreciate Madonna. I just hate the Pats and Giants.

Giants have Cruz, Pats have Gronkowski.

I'm the only football fan in Colorado

Who digs the Patriots and Belichik’s evil genius. Prob. the only football fan who likes Eli more than Peyton. Love Coughlin’s play-calling.

I don’t know. Don’t get why so many are so down on this super bowl. It’s fun times.

Is your love worth the nausea it could bring?

by Fly Agaric on Feb 5, 2012 5:35 PM MST up reply actions  

and I'm the only NYer

who like Belli and loves TBrady

BTW, the giants who are elite are rushers and pass receivers – in top 3 while Eli is in the “good” category.

82 passer rating career, 92 this year is not elite. Brady is chasing immortality, Eli is chasing Jim Plunkett

One of my friends has a lot of money riding on them so I am rooting for the Giants too

nope, I feel neutral about Giants, hate the Jets, love TBrady

am rooting for Patriots but I think the Giants will pull this out

My #1 team this year

the best sports story in years, the Tebow led Broncs and lots of NYers agree

Too bad he slaps players in the face and still plays dirty defense

Despite his oxymoronic name

you know, MWP is from a housing projects a mile away

from where I live and he goes back there a lot.

My take on MWP is that he is very emotional, leading to several despicable actions but, I gotta say, I think he’s a good guy, has a good heart and is very genuine.

Seriously why is everyone giving up on AAA???

He will come around and make his contract look like a bargain. You have to have patience.
Be happy that we are still winning.

A la Al Harrington

You just can’t give up on guys that easy.
You can definitely tell AAA is feeling the pressure of the contract. Once he lets the game come to him he will be fin.

no thats not the question

Plunkett or Eli is more like it.

Peyton, Brady = immortals, Rodgers will be one

Eli = a good QB with astonishingly great receivers. If Welker (a possession receiver) makes easy catch, late 4th, Pats win. Giant receivers make every catch and then some more.

by sgiustra on Feb 5, 2012 9:48 PM MST up reply actions  

Everyone fails to mention the Giants surrounding cast is friggin amazing

Cruz, Manningham, Nicks, Ballard, and some other TE who is good but can’t remember his name. (Basically its like Gronk, Hernandez, and really good receivers).
O forgot to mention the Giants have a great run game with Bradshaw and Jacobs which is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Green-Ellis/ Woodhead.
Did I forget to mention they have the best front 4 on defense too. That team is just stacked ridiculously to make up for any errors Eli has.

Gotta love the haterz. Keep that hate a comin'

STIFF LIST (as of 4/26 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. METTA WORLD PEACE

Metta resorted back to Ron Ron last Sunday by clubbing James Hardenwith an "inadvertent celebratory elbow", landing him a 7-game suspension. Apparently, changing his name didn't prevent NBA commissioner David Stern from overlooking Metta's past behavior problems.

2. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS

The 'Cats are on the verge of securing the worst winning percentage in NBA history. Given that the guy who runs the team - Michael Jordan - had previously drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison, should this really be a shock?

3. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
The team that was supposedly built to overcome the lockout-shortened season managed to lose 7 of its last 14 games, ceding the Western Conference's 1-seed to the Spurs in the process. Their reward might be a first round matchup with defending champion Dallas.

4. BILLY HUNTER AND DEREK FISHER
With report after report coming out about NBPA union head Hunter's shady, nepotistic dealings and questions arising about Fisher's own role in dealing with NBA owners behind Hunter's back during the lockout, this off-the-court scandal could prove to be more exciting than the playoffs themselves!

5. STEVE NASH AND THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Suns are on this list for squandering the last few great seasons from Nash. Nash is on this list for his stupidly stubborn loyalty to a franchise as awful as the Suns.
