Who's staying up for the big game sunday then. Cant help feel this superbowl is a bit tainted after what happened to the Saints.

Saying that..... I hope the Rams win

[Lee909]

Fuck the Superbowl and fuck the officials

 

That'll be a no

[DJLJ]

Will be in California for this. 3.30 pm start, so will be in the pub watching.

Can't blame you to be honest. Might be the worst blown call ive ever seen and in such a big game. 

With that and Dee Ford lining up offside on the interception should have two different teams vying it out

[Lee909]

Yeah, can't bring myself to even bother. 

It's possibly the last chance this team has with Brees only having limited time left, feels like a massive kick in the balls. More so than in 2011 when i thought they would have won it had they got past 49ers. Losing all our fit RB and Williams blitzing every play killed that as i don't think the Giants would hav lived with them.

I think the fact Brady has indicated he wants to carry on regardless of result, may spur Brees on to keep going for a bit, the Saints are very close to being a great team.

Drew looks to me like he still has a lot left in the tank.......... Well when youve watched Eli all season he does.

[Lee909]

Drew has said he wants to play for another few years.

I think he can, its the cap hit that will cause a issue as Michael Thomas,Kamara,Peat all need new deals in the next few years. He doesn't rely on a big arm and doesn't take that many big hits so that will extend his career

It's gonna happen again isn't it?

I really hope not.

[TheHowieLama]

Me too -- but it is

[Bjornebye]

Not a big fan of the Patriots and Brady is a bit of a dick. That said I don't like the Rams. Cant warm to them at all so i'm rooting for the Patriots. 

[TheBitch]

I don't know whether I'll watch it. I'm up at 5 for work after a 12 hour day today. 

[3 Stacks]

Big fan of McVay. Seems like a great guy and big fan of the way he runs his offense. Like Pederson last year, he's got balls and that's what you need to beat the Pats. It'll take a heroic performance from Goff like Foles had last year though and that seems a bit unlikely at this point. Just can't see the Pats losing again. 

[TheHowieLama]

To paraphrase that great leader of men Harry Kane -- "Don't give Belichick two weeks!"

I would strongly advise against it. 

[Carvalho Diablo]

Go Browns 

[Bjornebye]

Stadium is mainly Patriots fans. Rams booed on. 

[Jose Jones]

In the words of Parquet Courts (who I went to see on Thursday):

 

Swapping parts and roles is not acting,

but rather emancipation from expectation,
Collectivism and autonomy are not mutually exclusive
Those who find discomfort in your goals of liberation 
Will be issued no apology
And fuck Tom Brady

[Lee909]

Of course

The Rams have no fans. You can't jump from State to State and keep a fan base. Left Cleveland for LA, left LA for St Louis in 95 walked out the state as nobody cared and then walked out on St Louis for LA again a few years back. 

 

 

They are like Golden State in the NBA. They'll have loads claiming they've loved them for years if the win tonight. When nobody gave a shit about them barring a couple of years when Faulk and Warner where there

[Lee909]

Anyway

Have I said fuck this game yet

 

2 teams that got here on shite refs screwing too smaller market teams. 

[lebron]

And another bs call to add to this season's growing list. I thought the refs in the Pre**** Lea*** were bad...

[3 Stacks]

Just saw the very rare 2 week makeup call on Robey-Coleman there. Got a flag for making too good a play. 

[John102]

Stuck it on now as nothing on tele. 

 

Have no real idea of whatbis happening or why its so popular. Hopefully Buffalo Bills win it soon.

 

Highlight so far is the fella in the studio who looks a bit like an old Paul Gascoigne

Ha-ha, exactly! Ouch, Gostkowsku with a rare FG miss. Looked like he duffed it. Go Rams!

[3 Stacks]

This is how you know New England are unbeatable. Brady gets picked on his first pass and they miss a field goal, but somehow, they won't get hurt and will proceed to possess the ball for 40 minutes with their newly unstoppable running game.
