Super Bowl - cardcrimson - 02-07-2021

Can't believe there's not a thread, but here goes. Give me another tin hat. The fix is in. Never have I seen so many phantom penalties that are killing one side. Stunning.

On the other side, the two backup tackles are killing the Chiefs. Their offense looks awful, and the Bucs defense looks pretty good.

The Weekend?!?

Even my tiktok crazed 14 year old daughter has not heard of this guy. . . .

Funny, even pop-culture disconnected me had heard of him (oh, and it is the Weeknd, without the "e")

From his wiki...

Quote:Among the world's best-selling music artists, with over 75 million records sold,[11] The Weeknd has won three Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, nine Billboard Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, nine Juno Awards, and has been nominated for an Academy Award.[12] He holds several chart records, being the first artist to simultaneously hold the top three positions on the Billboard Hot R&B Songs chart with "Can't Feel My Face", "Earned It", and "The Hills". The Weeknd was awarded the Allan Slaight Award by Canada's Walk of Fame.[13]

Maybe because he's Canadian?

As for the game, I'm aware of the score and that's about it.  Not surprised that it's not exactly trending on a Stanford board.

I went to my local expert, and she drew a blank. I saw parts of the show, my wife saw all of it. Pretty boring. My kid, wouldn't even come out of her bedroom to see it. That, in and of itself, says a lot.

And I've nothing against Canadians. Dated one, who somehow, was related to Joni Mitchell. . . .

Why were all of The Weakend's backup dancers wearing jock straps on their heads?

This is the "Old Guys Rule" Superbowl, with Brady, Gronk, and Brown having big games.

Mahomes made some pretty unbelievable pass attempts that maybe could’ve been caught. Pretty entertaining. 

(I recognized 3 Weeknd songs I didn’t know were his.)

I didn’t know until three minutes ago that Mahomes was the son of a pitcher in MLB&NPB!

Doesn't matter how "fixed" the game may be. KC is missing both starting tackles and Mahomes has been running for his life every play. Also the defense sucks.


RE: Super Bowl - PVTree - 02-07-2021

I'm an anti-Brady fan and was rooting for KC.

Bucs defense controlled the game, had Mahomes on the run throughout, and Brady has time to find his receivers.

It was a horrible postseason for me in terms of approximately 2 games being won by the team that I wanted to win.
