Mithrandir Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Interesting list. Lets go back to a good ole marching band. Maybe doing a tribute to Rush! Honestly, as a football fan, I haven't enjoyed the Super Bowl in years. Way too much glitz and fluff surrounding the actual game. The preliminary rounds are way better - real football. And please don't make me go to a Super Bowl party any more. I see 10% of the game and 95% of the people are more interested in the half time show.....and think it was freaking awesome - including Maroon 5 and BEP and all the other crap.How old are you dude? You sound 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driventotheedge Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 This Super Bowl was the first one I've watched since the Packers won SB45, so I know nothing about the recent halftime shows. Super Bowl 44's halftime show was The Who. They (Daltry and Townshend) were HORRIBLE. I knew then that the band was done, fini, dead. It made me sad. Roger had throat surgery and sounded much better after that, and that performance was garbage. I have seen them after that and they were not bad - they were old men playing and singing the songs, but it was good. I find the halftime shows are generally garbage.Yeah I saw them 3 years ago and 5 years ago and they were very enjoyable. Roger killed it on Love Reign O'er Me. The surgery obviously helped.

I'm a football fan and have been since 1964. I told my wife when we met 13+ years ago "I hate Super Bowl parties. People use them as an excuse to get drunk and talk non-stop meaning I can't enjoy the game cuz they're yapping about a bunch of shit that has nothing to do with the fukking game. This is the championship football game of the season, that's what matters to me." To her credit she's never once tried to drag me to a damned party. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Carmina Posted February 15, 2022 Author Share Posted February 15, 2022 (edited) I always thought the clean-shaven sounds of Hooray For Everything was a Simpson Super Bowl Halftime Show parody, but it's a commercial for Duff Gardens!

A small gathering of friends (like 2-3 at most) and actually watching the whole game is best. Some years they were horrible games. Ive seen 3 w my team and only one win but that was glorious. Parties which Ive been to were shit shows of food yakking and a bad seat so I cant see the tv - HORRENDOUS! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry just a real football fan. I have never been to a SB party that had more than 10-20% real fans.

Principled Man Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) NFL photographer Kelly Smiley takes a close up pic of Matthew Stafford and his wife during post-Super Bowl festivities. The woman backs up a bit to get a good shot, falls straight off the platform....and breaks her back. Stafford watches her fall, gives a brief look of surprise, then immediately turns around and walks away.... :facepalm: Other people, including Stafford’s wife, tended to the injured woman. Update: NFL photographer Kelly Smiley will have her hospital expenses and the replacement of her damaged camera gear covered by the Los Angeles Rams and quarterback Matthew Stafford and his wife, Kelly, following a fall that fractured Smiley's spine on Wednesday while she worked at the Rams' Super Bowl parade. "We have been in communication with Kelly Smiley since yesterday's incident and we are sorry for what happened," the Rams and Staffords said in a Thursday statement. "As we told Kelly, we will be covering all her hospital bills and replacing her cameras. We wish her a speedy recovery." Smiley fell from a stage while taking photos during the Rams' victory parade three days after it won Super Bowl LVI.

invisible airwave Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Went to the parade yesterday and have pics. California Love and I Love L.A. were played.

invisible airwave Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) Rip Taylor would be proud may he RIP. :lol: Nice being on the Exposition metro rail back home after that shouting with everyone, "WHO'S HOUSE?!RAMS HOUSE!" :notworthy: Being part of a loud group of fellow fans celebrating that I've never done before is a rare lifetime opportunity.

It's a Laker and Dodger town.Easier to be seen. ;) Actually, my mom's family were long time Angels fans, and my sister, who lives in Capistrano, continues the legacy. They are season ticket holders, and true to form religiously catch the 3rd through 7th inning of most home games. Not all fans are that dedicated, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 The Green Bay Packers are playing a regular season game in London, England this coming season. They are the only NFL team that has not yet played an international game. Reporter: Aaron, do you have a passport to travel to the London game? Rodgers: I have travel ID, yes ..........
