Superbowl LVI

Rams by 10, 24-14

Rams. The Lions traded Matthew Stafford last year, so of course he's going to win the SB now.

I've not followed the NFL in over a decade. So I don't know who's who anymore. The games are too late for me nowadays

I might watch the game, or some more of Reacher, or get lost in my book again. As long as the Cheatriots, Cowgirls, or Bolts aren't playing, I'm actually somewhat interested.

Go Rams. I am a Ravens fan so a divisional rival taking the big trophy would just… irk me.

Rams 13-3 Bengals - for now, but I need to go to bed soon

EDIT: 13-9

The halftime show was garbage, but I guess I've come to expect that…

I vaguely remember when the NFL music was actually good, artists like U2, Metallica, Alice n Chains, and others performing. Those days seem long gone, now.

I thought the halftime show was great. As a Lions fan it was nice to see stafford get a ring. Seems like a real class act.

Yeah, Stafford is appealing to look like a pure genius at this point. I've never been a huge fan of his, though he certainly has the talent and obvious experience that this truly feels well earned.

Cooper Kupp is a monster. Even if you cover him and hold him he still catches the ball. How is that even a thing?

He actually came in third place in the league MVP voting this year which is pretty rare for a wide receiver. The last receiver to make the top 3 was Randy Moss back in the late 90's.

Since I don't understand American Football rules and also since Tom Bündchen wasn't in the Superbowl as a player, then I gave it a large pass

Well, there are 22 players on the field that play the game. Then there are several zebras who decide the game

Lies it's a brutal bloodbath were 42 200+ pound barbarians hit each other while throwing around, or carrying a ball made of pigskin. The Romans would be proud.

Hey now, easy does it there!

I was hoping for the Bungles to win to reward those fans that have stuck with the team thru thin and really thin, but no such luck. At least Stafford is a good guy.

Burro is a donkey, I mean a stud and he'll take the Bengals to the playoffs again soon I bet. KC and the Bills will be waiting again too, so this could become a trend.

In the Rams case, they went all in and it is likely Donald, Whitworth, Beckham, Von Miller and others will all be gone next year. Assuming Donald retires as he suggested. He's probably the best interior lineman to ever play the game and will be a sure Hall of Famer. What does he have left to prove?

The Rams are probably going to need some time to restock the team.

Honestly, when Beckham went out with an injury I thought the Rams were done, yet they pulled it out of the fire. This contest will likely have far reaching ramifications for the NFL at large, from coaching decisions to literally every position on the field. And yeah, Stafford and his mates getting rings is totally cool with me. Maybe next year we'll have two other squads that rarely make it to the finale, though next time I'd rather see the game played in about a metre of snow, with temperatures to match.
