Well, what did you think?

Personally, I thought it was all a bore. Game wasn't great, there were a few ok commercials, and I couldn't have cared less about the halftime show. That's my opinion, what's yours?

BTW, congratulations to the Patriots.

I was standing in line waiting to board a plane when the game started and it was almost over by the time I got to where I was going. Don't feel like I missed out on much though.

i forgot it was even happening, didnt watch any tv yesterday, was putting up chain link fence in the yard, could care less about sports anyways, hey, i'm a computer nerd, whaddya want?
zigen
i watched it and it was great (mainly because most of my friends were over and we had a great time)

Game was great, party was a blast, halftime and commercials were lame... What happened to amazing commercials like the Apple one in '84? (it's a shame I was too young to remember it) rolleyes.gif

the game was pretty good. fair amout of scoring on both sides, but the defense didn't say at home either. some of the comercials were pretty good. Didn't really care who won. Over all it wasn't bad. Its not like i have thing else to do on a Sunday afternoon.

Yeah I watched for a little bit to find out when it was going to be over so I could watch some real TV. The Simpsons and American Dad.

Yeah now throw 43 of us rednecks into an asphalt fishbowl and lets us see who can get around it the fastest, now there's a sport biggrin.gif

I thought it was a pretty good game. At least it wasn't one of those 42-12 at halftime games. Speaking of halftime, the show was pretty dry, but I'll take McCartney over Timberlake any day.

Like any true American, I watched the Super Bowl tongue.gif.

They game was eh. Never really too exciting, even though it was close. I've always said McNabb was overrated, so although I wanted the Eagles, I never once thought they'd come back to win it with McNabb at the helm. But WOW, although I knew he was overrated, I didn't think he'd be THAT bad. He was terrible yesterday. Practically all his passes were underthrown....except for the few that were overthrown.

The commercials were all right. I think the careerbuilder ones (with the monkeys) were great. The Pepsi ones weren't that bad either. The Bud one with all the animals trying out like the donkey from last year was great and the convertible one with the guy frozen was pretty cool.

EDIT:
as for the halftime show....it was better than I thought it would be, and definitely a hell of a lot better than janet and timberlake, but still...mccartney and the biggest game of the year?? Just doesn't go well together IMHO. The Super Bowl needs someone more modern. I vote for Eminem next year....I'm sure that'd go over well with the FCC wink.gif

Saying BBall is more exciting than Football is like saying Codename: Gordon is more exciting than Half-Life 2.

i kept it on in the back ground on my tv wonder and i switched when the commercials went on laugh.gif

I was too busy unpacking and putting away food and other stuff after I got back to my campus suite. My roommates watched, and all of them were VERY upset when the eagles lost.

I was at work for most of it. I think I saw maybe 10 minutes of it when I got home because my dad had it on. I guess I don't really care.

Didn't care for the game, but I did watch Paul Mcartney at the half-time show; I thought it was good. Gotta love the Beat-lez wink.gif.
drewkivela
what was up with that halftime show?
not even a remote possibility of a "wardrobe malfunction"

lik you really wanted to see a "wardrobe malfunction" on paul mcartney lol.

The game was good, I love D (odd that I'm a Colts fan eh? lol). I hate Philly so was glad they lost lol. The commercials I think were the worst I have ever seen during a Super Bowl and the halftime show sucked bigtime, but then again I don't ever recall liking a Super Bowl halftime show.
TimeMachine
watched the whole game and yea nothing special but in general i ike SuperBowl so i give it the first choice
sVperbeast2k5
Eh... Made it through the pre-game, watched the National Anthem to see some of my friends singing, and enjoyed the flyovers, but otherwise, the game wasn't all that exciting... (sleep.gif)
CheeseMan42

ccokeman
Watched the whole thing and the game was great. I was just a tad disappointed that my team lost .....again!!

When was it? lol no I did not watch it this year, or the last few years as far as that goes. I used to go to superbowl partys when I lived in houston and I drank. I moved and quit drinking so I did not watch it, I was busy putting together a new folding machine!
