Best summation in sas was "It's been entertaining to watch Mahomes run away from the rush for 30 yards and then make a superhuman throw that bounces off his receiver's facemask."

yeah it would have been nice if that last one he threw while falling down sideways was caught

also that halftime show in the light maze was really disorienting and i'm not sure who thought it was a good idea

You poo poo up this thread, and the baseball thread, with how boring and stupid, and dumb sports are, and all you do is piss and loving moan every single day in the Trump thread about how depressed you are and poo poo that up, too. As well as multiple other threads that you straggle into with what a sad-sack punk you are.
Just loving end it, or end your posting career already, because no one wants to hear more of it you loving jackass.

lol well honestly people call me out because they think I'm mad all the time, that guy is a straight up pouty faced moron looking for pity every where he goes, so he deserves at least a little call out for it.

You can probe me for being 'rude' or 'angry' or whatever, but you can't do it for being wrong. That dude is a straight up depressive with a personality disorder looking for attention and needs help. They're hosed in the head. Severely.

Sports are cool I used to be good at them but I refrain from telling people that because nothing is worse than some guy in his 30s talking about his college 400M time.

Good for Tom Brady I hope he keeps kissing his boy on the lips and preferring the feel of softer balls probably having way less sex with Gisele than most NFL fans speculate.

I would like to hear about it and I'm not joking. Did you rock that?

I did some cool golf/track and field stuff as a teen/college age guy and some other sports stuff and I think all goons should toss that out when they can as long as it's not nasty/weird/not usefull. I say go for it imo

Not too much to tell I just used to be real fast and managed to get some scholarship money from it.

I played lacrosse as well, but kind of stopped because of the jerk off private school attitudes of alot of players. Its thankfully grown in popularity which should hopefully help the culture. George Carlin wasnt wrong when he called it wanky Ivy League bullshit.

Theres a small league here in Australia and I might join up as a rickity old guy.

Just an FYI if you were watching the SUPERB BOWLING event for the half time show featuring the WEEKEND

Most half-time show's get paid, a lot, to perform.

The WEEKEND spent 7.5 million of his own dollars to produce and perform his own show. Which sucked. so...lol to that.

Hell yeah.

I used to be so good at golf and being good at carrying golf bags that I got the exact same scholarship that they talk about in the Hit Film Movie The Caddie Shack and also I could throw a shot put and discus sometimes it was very exciting to some people.

They don't at the superbowl. Performers sign over a significant fraction of their next year's worth of touring revenue in order to get the gig for the exposure The NFL my be clownshoes on PR and public facing issues but they are lighyears ahead of everyone else on seedy methods of revenue generation and tax fuckery.

quote:

historically speaking, the 15-minute show has resulted in some pretty hefty financial gains for the singers. According to Spotify, after last year’s Super Bowl halftime show, Shakira’s streams spiked by 230% while JLo’s went up 335%. Meanwhile, Justin Timberlake's music sales rose 534% after his appearance in 2018.

Ok I suppose technically you're correct. However, these artists, and previous ones, like prince, and Springstein, kinda, sorta, maybe, had, you know, a musical history from which fans could purchase and respond to, as opposed to this guy who had dudes in jockstraps on their face dancing to the absolutely one song he's known for.

It's the equivalent of having Harvey Danger come out and do a 15 minute set with the culmination being 'Flag Pole Sitter' the year AFTER it came out. You cannot deny that.

A 538% spike in Spotify streams will net you an extra 13 dollars in your quarterly check from the Harry Fox agency

I don't think you should slam the performance. It was a touching tribute to the late Aldo Montoya and symbolized his struggle for recognition in the fed and the golden labyrinth of Kevin Nash's booking ideas.

It's really obvious that everyone who always bitches that sports suck and go "lol sportsball!" never played anything besides rec soccer when they were 10, if that. And they probably sucked and didn't try to get better, they just quit when other kids started training for real. I don't know anyone who was good at a sport and quit unless their parents were pushing them too hard. I wrestled and sucked but then was good and if I never did that I'd probably have grown up as a shut in loser who just built computers and poo poo. And now I coach wrestling and track and cross country and get to watch kids go from shut in wallflowers who are afraid to even talk to anyone to confident, healthy, strong kids. It's the best. Sports own. Sports are good for you and really helpful to a kids development, even if you're not winning gold medals all over the place.

football is neat because it simulates large-scale infantry combat in the vain of medieval war

2 lines of combatants organized to feint, push, exploit, and support one another to execute a goal.

except then the quarterback can just throw the ball over everybody and that ruins the immersion altogether.
