cba fan Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I heard from an inside source the refs will institute, for the first time in NFL history, a continually running clock. As soon as Pats get a 21 pt lead. Scheduled for the 13:00 min mark of the 4th quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have plans yet, and again, don't even care. Usually one of my favorite days of the year, but my excitement for the game is at an all time low. Sick of watching the Patriots, its really gotten old. Plus, the matchup blows. Nick Foles, seriously? Shows how bad this league is starving for talent. Even if the Eagles pull of the upset, can you really take pleasure in it? We get to watch a bunch of a**hat fans burn a city to the ground. O well, heres to good food, company, and not getting 5-5 in my office superbowl pool this year. Maybe they should light their butts on fire and jump off cars onto tables instead.

Da webster guy Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I suggest getting into a few superbowl squares, doing some fun family and friends bets on props, and rooting for the Eagles to pull it off. Blount and Ajayi can hammer it, and the Pats have zero pass rush (the GENIUS traded Chandler Jones for basically nothing. Best DE in football this season) so Foles will have his chances. Also have your Talladega Nights DVR set to a funny part so you can go to it if the Pats start pulling away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They guy's a triple threat! After enduring the two weeks of Patriots ball washing and seeing every soccer mom decked out in Pats gear how could you miss this? It probably won't happen but in the rare chance it does i want to make sure I'm there for the Patriots failure. I'm having a SB party, half pats fans, a few Bills fans and some Giants fans. Fly Eagles Fly will be the war cry and we will bury our dissapointment with drinks and good food. Go Eagles. I also put some money on Corey Clement for SB MVP.

ProcessTheTrust Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Not crazy about this match up but the rooting against the Cheats/rooting for the underdog theme will keep me interested. Yes, I've been far less excited, the year the Ravens and Giants played. I knew it would be a snooze fest as that Ravens D consumed Kerry Collins all day long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd1 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 No, I have never been less excited! When I read your thread title I actually stopped to think - when is the super bowl. That said, the only reason for me to watch is that I HATE the long off season. It is way too long. I have actually considered buying League Pass just to watch football in the spring. Ha Ha I really don't think I can stand watching another disgusting Pats game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corta765 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Truthfully the faster its over the quicker I get to the Bills doing exciting things like FA and the Draft so yea I could care less let NE win by 80 and hopefully BB or Brady retires haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir andrew Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Giants-Pats* round II was one that I really did not care about.

Lfod Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Honestly until it is the Bills in the Superbowl I have about the same level of excitement I usually would have. I haven't even really seen the last few honestly. When I do watch it's because I was invited someplace for the Superbowl party atmosphere. I usually get a laugh from some of the commercials. I'm saying I haven't really been excited for a Superbowl in a long time. It's not me really hating on it. When it's a good match up it's worth checking it out. Yes I think it sucks the Patriots seem to be in it every year and that would be a reason I wouldn't go out of my way to catch the game but I wouldn't avoid it either.

frostbitmic Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 My interest in the Super Bowl is at an all time low. For the 2nd straight year some friends and I are headed to the casino as none of us are interested in watching D-Bag Brady hoist another trophy. When watching my money disappear into a slot machine is higher on my list of entertainment than watching a Super Bowl, it's pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I'm very excited about this Super Bowl. The two best teams in the league going head-to-head.

CLTbills Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Nope. I will not be watching. I have watched every Super Bowl since I have been on this Earth. The first SB after I was born was the first Bills superbowl, so I know that I was watching, even though I don't remember.. my Dad was a diehard Bills fan. But this will be the first one in my 28 years that I will not watch. Not only because of the league's blatant favoritism toward NE, but it goes beyond that. The whole deal with them not allowing a veteran's group to run an ad asking people to stand for the anthem, but then coming out and saying that they're going to show all the guys kneeling. Neither one of those things on their own would keep me from watching, but when you add it all up, it equals this guy not watching. I hope others do the same.

I don't think the game is scripted, though I do think that the refs love the Pats and the league doesn't seem to care about the bias. I would love to see the eagles win. I'm from lower NY (hence the name) and I hate living in Giants and jets country. My most hated teams are: Pats, Giants, Jets. Hands down. Nothing would make me happier in regards to this game than the eagles winning, thus beating the pats AND angering every Giants fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
