Go Denver
This might be the least invested I’ve ever been in a Super Bowl. A few weeks ago my buddy said that if Denver made it he was going to come to San Francisco for the game and to see Metallica. I don’t remember exactly what he said, but I thought he meant that Metallica was playing the Halftime show. I even set my DVR to record the show so I could watch Metallica later. I thought that was pretty cool that there was a proper rock act for once instead of Katy Perry, Beyoncé, or Jessica Simpson.
Then about an hour ago, I started seeing people posting on FB about COLDPLAY. So after checking further it was confirmed. Coldplay. Fucking Coldplay.
So, yeah, I now have LESS than zero interest.
Gunnar, I also thought Metallica were playing the Super Bowl. I guess they did some show with a band called Cage the Elephant last night. Anyways, this hot radio DJ named Nikki Blakk had posted on it and I was sure to respond by calling Coldplay a bunch of dirty buttholes.
Coldplay has one good song other than that they suck.

Yeah, looks like they played last night. Maybe the same stadium. I don’t care to cross check, but Metallica was at AT&T Park. My buddy posted some pics from last night’s show . . . . holy crap, it looks awesome! Their stage setup and backdrops for images/video just looks intense.
Rooting for Carolina since I live in NC. I don’t really follow NFL though.
I’m the same way about most sports.
I’ll root for whoever is our local team and then I default to . . . “Well, I got a lot of friends in Denver. I guess I’m cheering for the Broncos.”
how can you love heavy metal and not like football.

I don’t dislike football.
I just don’t follow it anymore.
When I was in college that was how I spent my weekends. Laying on the couch, hungover and farting, and watching football.
But as a married guy I just don’t have the luxury nowadays of watching football. The games are 3+ hours for crying out loud.
I almost always root for the underdogs. I think that was Carolina this time around. Congrats to the Broncos tho.
I didnt watch much of the game but everytime i switched channels to see what was going on Carolina would cough up the ball like a buncha rookies.
I ended up watching the halftime show only becuase my internet went out hahaha. I really had nothing better to do.
Football is boring as shit. too fucking slow. it takes 10 minutes to get around to one play and then that one play is done in half of a second and then you got to wait another fucking 10 minutes for the next half second play. Fuck football! [pirate]

I don’t understand why there would be any connection there whatsoever.

HAHAHA!!
You were prob watching football in the 90s when they took their sweet ass time. These days plays go by fast, teams seem to be adopting a fast paced offense lately.
I’ve watched games this past season where teams were 4 and out in under a couple of minutes.
Yeah,dude the game moves fast as fuck…this isn’t the 70s anymore, grmps…

What sport do you like?[/reply]
I like hockey and basketball.
At everyone else
Football fast?! Ive watched a few games here and there in the last couple years and they dont move fast. Theres a reason why that a game that should take maybe 2 hours at most, runs 3 1/2 plus hours, football is slow. How about if the play clock is under 5 seconds you cant call time out. Take the play clock from 40 seconds to 15 seconds. Lets hurry this shit along. We all know youre gonna give the ball to smallest dude on the field, whos gonna try to run through the biggest dudes on the field. They do it every play. Why do they need 40 seconds to talk about it.
I like football, but wasn’t really invested in either of these teams. Good for Peyton Manning though.
I don’t know how anybody can watch basketball. Only the last 5 minutes of a game means anything. And that last minute is just excruciating. The losing team just keeps fouling the other team’s players. Ugh. That’s something needs to be fixed.
So, did the Superb Owl actually turn up this year? Any time i’ve seen it there were no owls.

Not sure if you’re still interested but a friend just let me know that you can check out the Metallica show in its entirety on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYCq51wIR9g

HAHAHA!!! I’ve been saying this for years.
How much is left of the game? Oh, 5 minutes? I’m just gonna go pick up a pizza and come back, there will still be 2 minutes left when I return 40 minutes later . . . and those 2 minutes are going to last 7 hours.
I just think sports in general are too damn long for my short attention span. I like the idea of sports and athletics, but I just don’t have the patience.
I can watch the Olympics for hours on end.
High Jump . . . run at a mat, jump over a stick. Mark it. Done.
Diving . . . climb a ladder, jump off a platform, spin around in the air and hit the water. Done.
Shotput . . . throw this heavy metal ball thing as far as you can. Mark it. Done.
I used to watch a lot of UFC. I still do like the raw primal concept of mixed martial arts. There’s meaning for me in “sports” that are sort of “functional” by nature . . . fighting, running, swimming . . . these are all things that people have had to do for thousands of years just to stay alive. It’s something that we should always strive to be good at and should be rewarded.
Then you have shit like . . . Curling. Uhhhh, when am I ever going to need to have a team of people with brooms sweep ice to guide a stone along a frozen span of ice?
And yeah, that half time show was one of the worst in a long time. I know they’ll always have pop artists doing songs I can’t stand, but fucking Coldplay? It’s like dentist office music.
Just awful.
