Are you talking about her lyrics? I don't know anything about them but I do enjoy just looking at her
I mean the type of music. If she was doing a striptease that might be different, but to have perform her songs? 99‰ of her fans are pre-teen girls right?

Enlighten me on what this thing called Super Bowl is. And why some people care about it and even to a certain point get "depressed". :confused:

Just watch the Superbowl for the halftime show and at that it sucks. I want more visuals of the cheerleaders. :wub:

A lot of people will watch the Superbowl for the stupid commercials. Yet proabbly can't stand commercials interrupting their TV shows. I already seen most of the commercials on Facebook and YouTube.

Not watching. Working in the garage, grading papers, sitting in the hot tub. And running to the store to get 15 or 20 gallons of gas, just in case. (Snow storm moving in, and my tractor is low on gas.)

Diesel. Tractors run on diesel not gas.

You say Football is a dull sport yet will watch baseball which is infinitely more dull?

Baseball's not exciting, but more chill. Get decent seats at Rogers Centre for $50, grab a beer, and relax. I wouldn't watch it on TV though.

I got to work a few hours ago and I walked in the room, first thing out of my buddies mouth:

Him: "Did you get to watch the game!?"
Me: "Huh?"
Him: "The Superbowl!"
Me: "Oh, right that's the football one right?"
Him: ".........."

I pretty much got shamed out of the room. Well, I didn't feel shamed at least. Everyone was gawking over it. Meh. Someone mentioned earlier it's kind of like watching someone play a video game. I like playing soccer and golf and stuff like that but MAN, watching it is like, the ultimate waste of time in my book. (I also don't watch TV, as in, the actual TV. I do however watch programs on my second monitor while dinking around the interwebs).

I don't much care for it but will check in on it when the game is on - no snack preparations, no pre-game, nothing. My wife wanted to check it out and it turned out to be a great one last night especially in the 2nd half. It doesn't change my mind going forward, but that was an awesome game to watch.

I watched the game this year, but next year I'm not going to so I can parade myself around as being intellectually superior to everyone that watches it and I can post about it on the internet and stuff. :D

I'd rather go throw a football around with a friend than watch other people do it.

I actively dislike the NFL on top of that; all this hype like everyone loves football is propaganda at it's finest. A quick Google search shows last year was 112 million viewers, out of 316 million Americans; about 1 in 3 watched the game.

So for that 33% of the population that likes football, my city gives the rich owner of the Browns $7 million dollars to fix his stadium (pisses me off), my cable TV bill is double what it should be from paying off sports networks like ESPN, and I constantly have to listen to this propaganda of 'everyone loves football'.

To each their own. If my tax dollars didn't go to rich owners, and I could get cable TV without any sports channels (and therefore lower the bill by half); I wouldn't even waste time knocking it.

It was an amazing game. Just a mind blower, the ending, the last several minutes it just got more and more amazing! I am going to save my hidef recording and rewatch some day.
