1. It's settled then.

[Evergreen Emerald]

2. GO. HAWKS

[Skittles]

3. a pretty big yawner for a lot of people

just sayin'

[catbyte]

4. I'm psyched for the Puppy & Kitten Bowls, lol

[TeamPooka]

10. I love Animal Planets counterprogramming.

[catbyte]

16. The Hallmark Channel is airing Kitten Bowl I too featuring shelter kittens :)

[countryjake]

23. And it begins at noon!

So we can enjoy the kitties for a while and then also keep track of the game.

[catbyte]

24. I can'twait. i think using shelter puppies & kittens is genius. All

Puppy Bowl "players" were adopted into forever homes. That will probably happen with the kittens too. It will be fun!

[countryjake]

25. I can't wait either! I wish they could do something like this yr round.

It might help eliminate the problem of overcrowded shelters, at least for the puppy and kitten factor. They could do one every weekend, moving around to different regions of the country. It could really help, if somebody with money to burn stepped forward to fund the whole project.

My man is mad cause I'm more excited about watching these kitties than I am for the big whooping football extravaganza. Not a loyal fan, he says. Not enough 12th Man fever, he says. Well, I love cats and couldn't actually care less about football, ha!

[catbyte]

44. That is a great idea! Also, tell your man, sorry, but watching a football game

with puppy players, Keyboard Cat Halftime show, a blimp with a hamster crew & penguin cheerleaders is so much more awesome than watching a bunch of sweaty, overpaid men hitting each other while sexually objectified female cheerleaders jiggle on the sidelines not contributing much other than providing cheap thrills for the male fans.

I can't wait for the Inaugural Kitten Bowl, I really like your adoption ideas too. Well, I hope you don't get too much grief, lol. Have fun tomorrrow!

[Vashta Nerada]

30. Yes!

[Mira]

8. I came in to vote for

"who cares?" but it was not an option.
There are some (and I point at my own chest) who don't know who's playing and who don't know if that's football or baseball.

[TeamPooka]

11. win/lose is like pass/fail there is no other option.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

5. That reminds me ... I need to buy some squares at work.

... and then check the intertubes once in a while to get the end-of-quarter scores.

Other than that, nope, don't care.

[TexasProgresive]

6. I will

Because this huge waste of money and energy will be over for a while. One of these days people will wake up to the scam that professional sports have become.

Sorry for the rant but you did bring it up.

[rustydog]

14. Wait a minute! do you mean that in the NFL

a quarterback in the NFL or a linebacker or a defensive tackle in the NFL are scammers? In the NFL.
These guys, in the NFL are athletically gifted. They play a violent physical contact sport in the NFL. They are paid insane amounts of money while we, the taxpayers pay for the stadiums the filthy rich owners use and then we have to pay to see these people play in the stadium we built...

I love watching football, but it is a modern version of the WWF and WWE..it is showmanship. Players each have their patented after-play "move" dance" that no else can copy. or else!!!
It has been cheapened and has lost it's roots.

Just don't forget you are mandated by the NFL to say the fucking words: ....."In the NFL" whenever referring to a player, his talent or position... in the NFL.

[LordGlenconner]

20. Sports aren't very popular with a lot of DUers

Football players in particular are either rapists, or rapists in training.

It was all discussed right after the Pit Bull Wars. Maybe you missed it.

BTW, I hope Seattle wins. And I'll be watching the game. I guess I'm just not as hip as the cool folks who aren't.

[TexasProgresive]

33. I have no claim on being hip.

And I don't hate sports as such. I just think that sports have become a definite opiate to many people becoming so important as to push out all other things. Where i live parents push their children into sports and care more about that then anything.

Enjoy the game.

[Jenoch]

34. Yeah right.

Peyton Manning is either a rapist or a rapist in training.

[frylock]

17. do you feel the same about other forms of entertainment?

[Niceguy1]

26. I personally dont have a problem

With something that brings joy to peoples lives.

Plus the commercials are great, too

[bowens43]

7. Is that basket ball or hocky?

[TeamPooka]

9. lacrosse

[rustydog]

12. Sea...HAWKS!

Sea...HAWKS! Sea...HAWKS! Sea...HAWKS!

[Aerows]

19. Yep

They have to just show up.

[rustydog]

22. They have to not suck in the first half like they have been

in the latter half of the season.

[underpants]

13. Sadly probably Denver and the Peyton lovefest will be ON

I don't like the Broncos or any of the Mannings

[otohara]

15. Denver Loves You

[Scootaloo]

41. Oh now THAT'S a lie

"Welcome to Denver, motherfuckers *KRACKA-THOOOOM!*"

[Iwasthere]

58. A horse statue with legs in the air has a significance

Means the rider was killed in battle i believe. GO HAWKS!

[Aerows]

18. Seattle has this sewn up

All they have to do is show up.

[TeamPooka]

21. we shall see

[octoberlib]

27. I used to live in Denver and John Fox is our old coach . I have to go with Denver. nt

[Luminous Animal]

28. The Libyans

[Vashta Nerada]

29. Where's the "I don't care" option?

[TeamPooka]

47. "I don't care" is not playing.

[arely staircase]

31. I Fucking support the Seattle Seahawks! nt

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

32. The advertisers.

[countryjake]

36. $4 million bucks for 30 seconds this year!

Yes, A Super Bowl Ad Really Is Worth $4 Million
http://www.forbes.com/sites/onmarketing/2014/01/29/yes-a-super-bowl-ad-really-is-worth-4-million/

This year, a 30-second spot is an eye-popping $4 million while a 60-second spot goes for a jaw-dropping $8 million. And let’s not forget the cost of producing a Super Bowl commercial. The average Super Bowl spot has a production cost that’s north of $1 million and, based on how extravagant the concept is, some can easily double or triple this price.

[Jenoch]

35. I believe the Broncos will win and cover the 2-1/2 point spread.

[cherokeeprogressive]

37. THE TEAM THAT SCORES THE MOST POINTS IN 60 MINUTES.

Learn something about the game and stop asking stupid, loaded questions.

[TeamPooka]

48. thank you Private Obvious

[cherokeeprogressive]

56. Actually, I want to see Manning light up Seattle's secondary like a Christmas tree...

and throw for a Super Bowl record number of touchdowns. I want to see him light up Richard Sherman for say, five touchdowns. Long ones.

Then, I want to see Russell Wilson mount a 4th quarter comeback reminiscent of Montana, Marino, Elway, Brady, and the rest of the best of comeback quarterbacks. I want to see Wilson voted MVP, and here him say "I'm going to Disneyland!"

So I guess I want to see Seattle be the team that scores the most points in 60 minutes.

[texanwitch]

38. I don't really care who wins.

I hope the game is close.

I hate it when one team runs up the score.

[leftynyc]

39. I just made the poll 50-50

This should be a terrific game and I'm rooting for Denver (relatives in CO and have a soft spot for Eli's brother). A guy in my office offered the theory that it seemed anyone over the age of 40 was rooting for Denver.

[last1standing]

40. The owners of the Seahawks and Broncos.

They'll both win to the tune of 100s of millions while charging far more for tickets than the average family can pay - even in regular season.

[Fumesucker]

42. Our corporate overlords

[Shankapotomus]

43. +1

The people that sell shit...

[TheMathieu]

50. And people selling and buying is horrible for the economy. nt

[Jamaal510]

45. I want to say Seattle

because they have a more balanced attack, having the #1 defense all around in addition to a good O. I'm not going to lie, though--as much as I hate the Broncos, their offense is crazy scary. Their QB is one of the best in the history of the game, and their O-line is nothing to laugh at, either.
I hope the Seahawks are prepared for tomorrow.

[pokerfan]

46. A Seahawk vs a Bronco? Don't be silly...

Seahawk:



Bronco:

[TeamPooka]

52. thats funny

[TheMathieu]

49. Bob Saget, Dave Coulier and John Stamos. nt

[11 Bravo]

51. Think? Seattle Want? Denver

Two really evenly matched teams.

[narnian60]

53. Could be either team.

Told hubby this morning that I find the playoffs more exciting than the Superbowl.

[Shrike47]

54. FOX wins. They sell that advertising.

[defacto7]

55. Neither.

I think Mr. Bates is going to find that driver and end up back in jail again.

Oh wait... that's a different channel.

sorry.

[appleannie1]

57. I don't really care. I can usually cheer for or against at least one of the teams. Not this time.
