Who considered not watching? (be honest)

These two teams were a great matchup, with two great coaches.

No way was I going to miss it.

Had it been New Orleans, Atlanta, Dallas or Pittsburg that made it to the big dance, I would have likely cancelled my cable subscription, smashed my TV and sworn off football till next season.

This might get weird, but this game had be contemplating tuning down the intensity of my fan hood.

I was mildly cheering for the Seahawks, and when RW threw that pick, I was shocked and almost sick, and then a thought hit me, how would I feel if the Panthers had a similar fate in the SB? This thought literally scared me.

If we lost like this it would destroy me for who knows how long. I'm a diehard fan, I don't know if I could take an L like that.

As much as I hate the seahawks and the 12th man, I wouldn't wish what they're feeling right now on anyone. This may sound hyperbolic, but it seems to me to be a form of slight mental and emotional anguish. Slight, of course, it's not on the level of losing a loved one or anything like that, but it may be akin to losing a job or a large sum of money.

When we lost at Atlanta in 2012 and in Buffalo in 2013, it felt worse to me than when I did happen to lose my job that's for sure.

Being a diehard sports fan doesn't seem like a smart emotional decision at times. Only one team wins it all at the end of the year, and only that team and their fans are truly fulfilled. 1/32 doesn't seem like good odds for peace. Idk, still processing it all.

There was enough talk about it pre-game that I know at least some of you considered skipping it.

 

Regardless of what you think of the outcome, this game was sports history and is likely to become one of the most talked about Super Bowls of all time. 

 

If you missed this game, you blew it.

 

I missed most of it.  Had a nice party.  I made my smart ass remarks relative to bradybunchasshat.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
