Open Thread: Super Bowl XLVI
This is it. Today the New England Patriots and the New York Giants, representing New York City and the Boston area, take the field in Indianapolis for the last football game of the 2011-2012 season. At the end of the game, one of the two will be crowned world champions. The Super Bowl is, year in and year out, the biggest television even of the year and has the pageantry of every Hollywood red-carpet event wrapped up into one to the point that sometimes the last thing people think when the words Super Bowl are mentioned is football.
We'll see commercials that are more like 90 second blockbuster movies and probably cost almost as much. We'll see a pre-game ceremony, a ridiculous halftime show and, if we're lucky, we'll see a good game too. If the Giants and Patriots can give us a repeat of Super Bowl XLII or their Week 9 game (both of which the Giants barely won), I don't think any of us would complain.
So, consider this your one-stop shop for everything Super Bowl. Talk about the game, talk about halftime, talk about the commercials, talk about the pre-game show. After this day, the offseason officially begins so soak it up.
Happy Super Bowl Sunday.

zzzz....
Anyone else have zero intrest in this game? I will watch becuase it’s football, but deep down, I don’t really care what the outcome of this game is.
and the commercials
dont forget the commercials, its like having 30 plus mini shows during commercial breaks through out game.
AMAS
Last year was a game I had zero interest
in simply because of the teams involved. This is different. These are two teams I wished the Bengals modeled themselves after. The best QB of our generation playing on the biggest stage is always special to see. The storylines have been natural and not forced like Big Ben’s Redemption bullshit last year or the Favre cloud. Two cities that don’t like each other. Two teams that have recent issues against each other. I’m firmly behind the Patriots tonight out of personal spite towards certain Giants fans and I suppose I’d like to see Ocho get a ring, even if it comes in the manner in which he has gone about it. Unlike most people, I’m not sensing a classic. We’re long overdue for a “blow out” and I think it happens here, one way or another. I’m taking the Pats over Giants 27-13.
last year I had an interest in the game
an interest to see the Steelers lose…I didnt want to hear about their damn rings all summer…..

only reason why i watched. had baltimore made it over new england, i probably would’ve watched simply to see the ratbirds lose.

I am not fans of either team and I want the Giants to win because I am tired of the Pats….just tired of Brady and tired of the perennial SB team….I wish it was the Bengals vs the 49rs……how bout that for a repeat of an old Superbowl…..whodey

I just want to watch
Brady and their coach lose hopefully…. I am never really a fan of a New York team winning in any sport, but in this case it is better than the other guys winning their 4th… I am a little worried about the Giants being overconfident, including their website.

the pointless hatred for Brady. People act like he’s been convicted of felonies, alleged of sexual assaults and other heinous crimes. The worst thing you can say about Brady is that he wears women’s boots.

They brought a defensive guy up from the practice squad

Had to share this with you guys
Last night me and the old lady went on a double date with one of her friends. We get in the car and and ask my girlfriends friends boyfriend (we’ll call him Carson) if he liked the Bengals. He said no he doesn’t watch the NFL. I was like wtf. So I asked Carson do you watch college football he said no he doesn’t like football at all. Needless to say it was a very boring night filled with me reading Cincy Jungle on my phone and not being very social at all. I don’t think we will be going back out with them.
AJ Green = Optimus Prime
Hah! What kind of a man doesn't like football???
I was talking to a Raider fan yesterday evening (had my Bengals hat and hoodie on) and he said something about taking our quarterback. I told him he can have Pick 6 Palmer. He became a bit more subdued then. LOL!

Haha
Idk what kinda man he was but I assume he likes flowers and things like that. What makes it even funnier is at the restaurant there was a guy sitting next to us who had a Bengals hat and I had a Bengals shirt on and we taled for about 10 min about this season and who we want to draft. Lol

"It’s time people started realizing just how good a player Carlos Dunlap already is, and that starts with the Bengals. They gave him a season-high 58 snaps and what was the result? Carnage on the right side of the Seattle line." -Pro Football Focus
We need to learn how to play in big games
Giants understand that, we don’t. Starts with our HC.
A Few Takes on Superbowl as it Applies to Bengals
Just a few quick thoughts on the Superbowl. Brady and Manning are about as clutch as it gets. Great game. What I was thinking watching the closing moments of the game were:
A) We were so close to hiring Tom Coughlin (not that I think Marvin’s doing a bad job).
B) Look how important number two receivers are.
C) You have to have a really clutch QB to win those types of games (and Carson Palmer was not that guy). Remains to be seen whether or not Dalton is.
D) Critical calls mean all the difference. Giants overcame the Patriots Brady / Bellichik mistique by having several key calls go against them yet they still won. Phantom hold on the one drive reminded me of the call against Whitworth against the Steelers. Boothe did not hold. Hopefully, if we start winning consistently, we start getting the types of calls the Patriots and Steelers typically get.
Ain't it funny when referees actually call penalties?
The pats had 2 penalties called against them vs. the Broncos
The pats had 1 penalty called against them vs. the Ravens
(both games were played in NE)
The pats had 5 penalties called against them vs. the Giants
I am not sure if the safety is counted in those 5 penalties, that was A BIG call to make. It was the right call, but it took b@lls by that crew to actually make that call..I could easily see it as being not called for one bs reason or another….
