I stopped watching all forms of sportsball years ago. Saw the highlights of this on youtube, and looked up the commercials to see if there was anything good. Same old stuff with Tom Cruise running.

View attachment 116699

Couldn't stop a 4 man rush. Thiefs played like it was their first appearance in a SB. Being under the microscope for having so much ref help cost them too. During the strip sack a guy knocked him down after the ball came out, with a hit to the head- facemask. That's unnecessary roughness any other time.

reports coming out that the NFL edited the audio for the shot of Trump and added in cheers, when it was more boos. Multiple videos posted on social media from folks at the game were posted, with the real audio, but have since been taken down as the NFL is very very active in 'protecting' its content online. but unfortunately, can't verify anything so take it with a grain of salt.

When watching the game it felt like it wasn't real audio.

Tom or Kevin commented that the refs missed the facemask a moment after the ball was stripped.

I was disgusted with all that. First POTUS to attend a SB game, BFD, he never misses a photo-op is basically it. Has a job to do but is utterly incompetent at it and worst of all, doesn't realize it and doesn't GAS. I did NOT listen to the interview Fox did of him at the game. FF through plenty of other stuff, especially people saying the same things I've heard before. And just about every commercial. I time shifted the whole thing, which I always do with TV. Some of it was really good, though.

Kelcey saying that Rump attending was a great honor confirms my dislike of him. He'd be a mediocre TE on most teams. He's boring to watch. My favorite TE by far is George Kittle.

I'd completely forgotten how much Trump hated the Eagles in 2018. There's another silver lining for me.

Hurts was asked about what he thinks of Trump being there and he gave a very casual "it is his right to be there" and left it at that.

I don't expect the Eagles to visit the White House after this win, just like they did not in their first one.

Yep. Agreed. And that is a very small thing in the grand scheme of things, but ultimately a thing that brings a little satisfaction

Don't be an idiot homer. I also disagreed with what Kelce said because it was unnecessary, but he was just being overly politically correct. That doesn't make him a better or worse TE, it just makes him a bad boyfriend.

Both Kelces seem like cool dudes, and wacky Mrs. Mahomes aside, I doubt Patrick is "MAGA" as has been accused in this thread two days ago. Whatever their true political affinities are, we can have our own opinions but 95% of the people in this thread don't care and would rather not rage debate it here.

Yup, although I've never rooted for the Eagles before, this was the one time for me. It'll be interesting to see if Trump invites the Eagles to the WH, and how many players decline. My initial guess is that POTUS is still so petty over 2018 he doesn't want to invite them lol.

Strangely, the small co-favorites for SB 60 are the Ravens and Chiefs lol. The former didn't make the conference championship game (again) while the latter got murdered last night.

Haven't watch the NBA in years. May try to catch a quarter of Doncic's debut with the every hated Lakers tonight. THE HYPE IS REAL.

What he said wasn't politically correct in the least. It showed his political ignorance. And I never claimed it had a thing to do with his status as a TE. And you are a fool to come after me with this bullshit.

I gonna try to google fu some foreign video


I was offended by the visage you see above and fast forwarded right out of it. Awful the NFL would overlay cheer track hiding the boos. There's a lot of people to hate these days. Guard your integrity with your life. If you don't have your integrity you're lost.

What did everyone think of Brady's performance last night?

Post your thoughts then read this. It takes a while to get to the Brady portion of this article but the intro is pretty fucking great and on point

Brady's really smart and his commentary is valuable. I'd say the same for Tony Romo. They played at a very high level, Brady maybe the highest by any QB ever. On mic he tells you even about his failures and insecurities. What does he have to lose? He probably has all the money he'll ever need. Why not just be honest and genuine? He analyzes the game as if it were him out there playing. Romo does that too. For these guys it's instinctual and instantaneous, there's no time to think, they have to know what to do, know what the situation is so they can make the right decision instantly. Yes, they're not playing anymore but for Tom it was very recent, plus he played for a lot of years and he got really good at winning. But he lost too, and would probably agree that he learned more from losing than from winning.

I'm sure that Tom and Tony don't want to be talking heads like Gronkowski, Bradshaw, Long, etc. They are much closer to glory than those guys are now or ever were. Being on mic during the game is much more satisfying, has much more potential. I don't expect to ever see those two descend into talking head status!

I wasn't a big fan of Brady in the booth at the beginning of the season, but I think he's found his groove. Romo is probably my favorite of the new generation of commentators, but Brady did well. Collinsworth and Michaels are my favorite duo. I'm a bit young, but I like Frank Gifford too.

I mean I don't think anyone really "sucks" in the booth but some of them are way better than others. Tom Brady is definitely at the bottom right now. Greg Olsen is much better than he is.

Brady still fucks up a lot. He fucked up multiple times saying it was the wrong down. He kind of has charisma but it just feels forced some of the times too.

FWIW I don't really think Romo is that good either. You can just tell he thinks he knows more than everyone and comes of that way.

OK, so after my response I read the Guardian's review. Well, what's clear is that the reviewer was tasked with reviewing the game calling tandem and he had a mind to pan it while watching the game. Period. Often times people see and hear what they want to, not what is. Case in point.
