What a Game!! I love it when the 9er's lose.

Great game by 2 great teams.  :cheers:

I kept thinking whoever had the ball last in a game like this will probably win, and sure enough that's what happened.

Congrats to KC on the back-to-back Super Bowl wins, which is getting much harder to do. :yes: :cheers:

I know they are already thinking three-peat for next year, and I don't think anyone will be surprised if they pull it off. :thumbsup:

The 49ers came out fired up and playing hard. It was a tough defensive battle for 3 quarters then one hell of a finish.

It seems the Superbowl commercials and half time shows keep getting worse every year. Anybody else notice that?

Yeah the commercials were underwhelming. I did like the Mich Ultra one with the soccer player.

I agree. Maybe I've just aged out of the target audience.



Missing that extra point was huge.

The only commercial that made me LOL was the Dunkin one with Ben Afflek.
I don't know why, but it just struck me funny.

The one with Arnold was pretty good too, but the rest were underwhelming to say the least, especially considering the major coin these advertisers have to shell out for those spots. :shock:

As for the halftime show, I watched Mark Levin interviewing Senator Ted Cruz about his new book.

Definitely agree with beej about being aged out of the target audience.
With all due respect to Usher, and I'm sure his fans were thoroughly entertained, he's not on my playlist and probably won't be any time soon. 
:lol:  :whistle:

Nope... Football has been getting unwatchable for years.
1 minute segments of football interrupted by 10 minutes of commercials, talking heads, instant replays and topped off with revolting halftime shows.

beej said "Maybe I've just aged out of the target audience."
That's a good point and I'm sure that applies to me as well.

I was getting tired of football years ago, but when all those overpaid, unappreciative clowns started taking a knee
for the national anthem, it was the last straw.

It's been several years since Mrs Gcode and I watched a game and we've got no plans to start watching again anytime soon.

Super Bowl is only game I watch. Daytona 500 the same.

I watched the last 4 minutes of the first half and the halftime show.

3 minutes in I'd seen 8 commercials, 5 of which were CBS / Paramount+. Thought it was odd till I realized CBS was the main sponsor.

Halftime show was underwhelming. Both my sisters and I like Usher but we only knew a couple of the songs he sang. My girlfriend thought it was awesome, she knew almost all the songs.

I'll watch the Chiefs sometimes during the season. I usually don't have the patience to watch the whole game.
