Here's my thought on super bowl. I'm quoting Phil Mushnick of the NY Post and I agree with him.
"I got to thinking about Snoop Dogg’s violently anti-police, pro-crime vile and vulgar “artistry,” mindful that Roger Goodell appointed and anointed Snoop Dogg the headliner at this year’s Super Bowl halftime." This is wrong. I'm not watching super bowl that's for sure.

I've got no dog in this fight....................but I can't remember when the play-off games have been so good and am looking forward to a SB Game.

My picks for the NFL Yahoo Pickem were awful this year but I am thrilled that Cincinnati got to the Super Bowl this year and that the Yahoo Pickem choice was another bad one. I had KC at the Rams for the Super Bowl.

Glad to see the underdogs Bengals are in it. But just me if I see one player, Rams or a Bengal take a knee to disrespect our flag & military I personally won’t watch 1 sec. of it. I love our country more than any football game. Yea, I’m a bellyacher! Go Bengals!

I agree on the halftime and commercial comments....the game itself has been overshadowed by all the 'hoop la'

watching the Manning brothers make fools of themselves pretending to eat potato chips is getting old...now they even have Archie in one

bring back the Clydesdales

Yeah...this years championship games were great. First time I watched football in 4 years.
I have no favorite team...I like when smaller-market teams win.

I'm typically for the underdog if I don't have a favorite.
In the end the two underdogs will play the SB this year. Good.
Bad for me, Brady and the Bucs couldn't pull it in with all the injuries etc. But they made the run.
I was happy to see that Green Bay and KC lost, again the underdog matter. IMO both teams and their Qbacks came in with pompous expectations and their second half performances paid the price.
Should be a good SB with two healthy teams headed by exciting Qbacks. Just hope the game is as great as the ones leading up to it.

I have two opinions re Tom Brady. One, I hope he decides to play another year. Two, I hope that he retires. the first, as a fan, the second as a person. He has little to prove now. He deserves to have a wonderful private life, aka Michael Jordan et al. But with his competitive juices flowing, it may be tough for him to have an outlet to soak that up. No doubt his wife and kids pressure him to hang up the cleats. And the eventual shape of the TB team talent as well. I do believe that he will retire.

First of all, Brady is too pompous to step out of the limelight. He’ll probably threaten retirement for years like Brett Favre did. I never liked him and especially after inflategate but I am sad for the Bucs.

Doesn't sound like a threat to me...

Some people after 40 years never learn.

It's the FORD family that didn't give a dam about winning and still don't.
