Philly or KC?
I think it’s nearly impossible for any team to win three straight super bowls.
The Steelers couldn’t.
The Cowboys couldn’t..
The Pats couldn’t…
-
but one team managed to lose 4 straight
...the only team that actually plays home games in NY.
-
I thing that the physical toll of playing and winning that many games to keep going to the super bowl, combined with the other teams coaching staff focusing for months and months in taking away the things that made them so successful is too much to overcome.
-
The 49’ers couldn’t….
Oakland Raiders
Denver Broncos
Miami Dolphins
NY Giants
Chicago Bears
Nobody…
Ever….

Are you luvin the half time show?
I'm about to barf.

-
That was a show?
It looked like a 13 year old jerk off pretending to dance around the living room.
The nfl needs to fire whichever dei hire they hired to put that shit together.

Yay Packers!
I watched an old Arsenal futbol game, my favorite of the English teams. Futbol is a lot more exciting and no commercials. But other than the Packers I'm following FC Bayern Munich. Number one in the Bundesliga!

Speaking of futbol, my youngest grandson is in his senior year at HS. Their first game this season was Friday. It was a scrimmage but the home team wanted to beat them since we were a region champion last year. We have eight of our starters returning. First half looked like they had never played soccer and at the half were down 2-0. Started playing better in the second half and got goal off a free kick from the left side. The on of our guys went for a tackle, missed and it turned into a leg whip and a red card. Now we're playing 10v11. My grandson got a yellow and eventually the coach emptied the bench, benched a couple of the new starters he was unhappy with, sat my grandson so he wouldn't get a second yellow and left himself with eight players on the field. Get dow to about four minutes left and we got a breakaway. Keeper came out to take him on and he lobbed it over his head anit rolled in. Game ended with a 2-2 tie.
Interestingly, we won the championship last season playing a large portion a man down after of our keeper got a red card early on. With our backup keeper and a man down we won 3-0.

Followed and routed for the Eagles since I was a kid. Stopped watching Pro sports due to the BLM fiasco and them telling me I was Racist. Eff them all.
The drunk Philly fans caused mayhem as usual last night.

Soccer was a game derived due to lack of facilities and equipment in poor areas.
It is boring because it is boring.

anyone notice any coverage of President Trump during the game?
Me neither.

Rupert Murdoch's kids hate Trump. Huge Lefties.

It is my understanding that soccer has been around a lot longer than you realize.

I think you have to really understand soccer to enjoy it. My grandson has played since he was a little tyke. Since he's been in HS he has played with his club team and the Varsity team since he was a freshman. Next year he will play for Berry College in Rome, GA. He is a very good defender. In 23 games last season they gave up 13 goals on their way to a state championship and only lost one game.
This club season his team won their division and will have regional championships in June, once the HS season is over.

Sports are (supposed to be) more fun to play than to watch.
In my youth I wasted many a Sunday afternoon during football season watching Minnesota Vikings games. Then around the mid-1980s I stopped watching football and suddenly I had extra Sunday afternoons to do other things. Not being a baseball fan, I only watched the Twins during their World Series runs in 1987 and 1991.

Did some sports related event happen this weekend?

I think you have to PLAY soccer to enjoy it. It is a blast to play, if you are physically able to keep up. But it is BORING to watch.
I played intramural soccer in High School and that was 58 years ago. But even then I couldn't watch a whole game if I wasn't playing, or at least on the sidelines watching MY team keeping the other team from scoring, which is the only real excitement in the game. Except for the fights and injuries.

I really object to people thinking someone not liking an activity must be due to ignorance.

Clearly anyone who does not think like I do is a rancid turd-packing twatwaffle!
But seriously, I can no longer watch professional football. Too many commercials and breaks in the play. Then the stupid dances after making a tackle or a touchdown. You did your job. That's what you get paid to do. Whoopie. I've never cared for professional basketball. Run down the court, make a basket. Do it again for an hour. The last minute is where things actually get exciting. But when the score is 200 / 201 that's just silly. And hanging on the basket like a shaved baboon (not racist... all races do it)? Get over yourself. Raise the basket three feet. Then you'll have a game. And when will SOME ref call traveling? Hockey is pretty cool, but I can never find a game.
I used to think soccer was silly. Now that I'm watching it regularly I'm seeing how the players work offense and defense. Yeah, not much scoring, but the strategy to get into position to score is pretty amazing. I can barely run down the field, and they do that for 90 minutes without breaking a sweat. Constant play with a 15 minute break at halftime. Yeah, pretty cool.

I stopped watching football and baseball when the combination of awful commissioners and prims Donna players became more important than the game.

I think that it's all related to sports betting and especially fantasy football / baseball. The players have to let you know that they did their jobs or something so you pick them for your team next year. Or the "all about me" generation. I don't see that in European soccer. Although the "oh my goodness he touched me and now I have to fall down in extreme pain" acting is pretty amusing.

From the liberal media? Of course not.

The NFL Pro Bowl game is now flag football. Imagine the best players, millionaires, playing flag football.

I think it's more a Black thing. When the leagues were mostly White guys, celebrating was unsportsmanlike, and considered taunting the other team.
In the old NFL, you knew if you celebrated, they'd hurt you on the next play. Today, with all the money involved, they think they're ROYALTY, and untouchable.

some people are naturally more exuberant.
