Unless they're showing it on the plane I'm about to board, then no.

But who am I kidding; if I was sitting on my ass at home the answer would still be no.

Maybe a bit, but I am far more excited to watch the primary results Tuesday night than this stupid game.

Yeah, but mostly for the commercials.

I can't wait to see the ratings when it's over, 2 teams no one really cares about and no compelling back story.

No.  I don't care enuf about TV to pay for cable and the local CBS affiliate isn't one of the stations my antenna will pick up.  I'd probably be watching it if I could get it and I expect to watch next two Super Bowls as I can get the local FOX and NBC affiliates.

lol, yes (normal, et. al.).

Been counting it down all day. Let the best team win! Got lots of wine, champagne, and schnapps for whoever stops by, too. Wink Hors d'oeuvres, veg chili, etc. It's just New Year, part II.

Lots of stories on the Broncos side from Peyton to Wade Philips, the D.C. We'll see if the Panthers are too much for them.

Lady Gaga.  Outstanding performance.

Will watch it in fits and starts, no doubt.  Gonna see the kick-off in a few minutes (after a few words from the sponsors, and maybe a few more words from the sponsors.) 

Don't have a favorite this time.

Joe Montana flips.  Class act.  Carolina calls tails and it lands on tails.  Carolina will kick.  And, another commercial...

This is what is so frustrating about any professional sports game in the USA.  You get two minutes of commercials for every one minute of actual programming.  Then again, I know people who claim to watch the superbowl solely for the commercial advertisements.  I'll probably sit through some of the first quarter and some of the last quarter.  And, of course, the halftime show.

Voted yes.

I actually did watch part of the superbowl. Yay for plan changes!

Everyone in his family and all his fans can only hope.  Some people unfortunately don't know when to quit and he might be one of them.

As I was towelling off in the club yesterday, I overheard a conversation between two old fat dudes.  One asks, "so do you have a favorite in the superbowl tonight?"  "Denver," says the other, "I want to see Manning win."  The first one then asked, "You like Manning, do ya?"  "Hell, no," answered the other guy, "I can't stand him, and if he wins he'll probably retire and we can be rid of him."

I watched most of the first half, the halftime show, and some of the fourth quarter.  I turned it off after the two-point conversion, possibly the final pass of Manning's career.  At that time it was 24-10 with a few minutes left in the game and I figured it was over.  With all the heavy favoring of Carolina, I was surprised at how weak the Carolina offense played.

I just watched the half time show, and a bit of the game afterwards. I still don't know who won. The half game show was superb, particularly the very skilled synchronous dancing, which is very difficult to do. And it was so high energy, it made Trump seem like a sloth in comparison.

I did, but it was very underwhelming. A very ugly game, with below-average commercials. This game will not deter me from watching in the future, but it was just no fun to watch this year.
