If the Steelers hadn't of scored just before half time, I would've gone to bed. As it was, 2 hours of sleep. I suddenly don't feel 'young' anymore.

Good game though.

I was thinking the same. At least they made a game of it and had a half chance of nicking it at the end.

Yea, but the trouble is, they didn't have any assistance from the officials, unlike their last two SB "wins", which is why the better team won last night.

Aaron Rodgers is beyond ridiculous, and is a total class act. Despite losing some pretty key players to injury, they still dug in and got it done.

Outstanding performance by their defense as well. They're going to be a tough team to beat next year (if there is a next year).

You gotta admit The Black Eyed Peas are awsome ....


What a show !!!!!!!!!!!

you forgot [sarcasm] [/sarcasm] tags surely

alot of just shouting rather than singing

and i like Black eyed peas
(always play some BEP's if im doing a disco )
but not very great at all

too many ppl getting caught up in the moment & not judging it objectively


twitter went nuts ppl slating the performance
even Jake Humphries had a dig

lights and dancers etc were pretty good
sound engineer needs shooting

levels were wrong ...live vocal processing sounded off and if your going to do that might as well auto tune it all too

i mean comparethesuperbowlBep'sdotcom

comparetheOprahBEP'sdotcom

its simples

Still think this is better


gotta say i thought the refs tried to make a game of it too
still think that pass was complete and was knocked out & the fce mask where he didnt grab it and had his chest under his chin

glad it was an exciting game tho,looked to be all over is at half time

I thought TBEP's was a good show. I did like all the extravagance of the dancers and lighting effects. I was too busy watching the show to pay too much attention to the singing but they were still better than Paul McCartney.

I enjoyed the whole thing, but at that time in the morning I'd enjoy anything

Aaron Rodgers is beyond ridiculous, and is a total class act.

I agree but thought he blew hot and cold last night... almost lost his mojo as the Steelers came back into the game... but found it again just in time.

It was his ability to do that that makes him as good as he is.

He thoroughly deserved the MVP award, though Jordy Nelson might have recieved it, had he hung onto the 3 or 4 dropped catches!

I just enjoy nothing more than watching the Steelers lose, and to do so on the big stage makes it all the more sweet.

You don't get much actual play in the four hours it takes to complete a match do you. Mate of mine went to the match recently at Wembley, and couldn't believe all the breaks for adverts. Presumably if it wasn't on the telly it would take half the time ?

Can't believe they pay Aguliera all that cash and she can't even get the words to the anthem right. Didn't watch it as I had work this morning and the Chargers weren't in it but I'll Sky+ the highlights later

Not really. The Super Bowl takes longer because of the premium put on ad time, and the Ad's are usually part of the whole experience (companies are paying $3mill for a 30 second advert so they're usually good)

I play in the British League, which although amateur, is still run like any NFL game, minus the "TV timeouts". Most games still take around 3 hours on average.

It's not for everyone, but there's a reason they stop after every play.

I quite like grid iron, started watching last night but I thought it was ridiculous that one team couldn't have worn their equivalent of an away strip. Trying to follow plays with so much yellow on screen was impossible so I went to bed.
That should not happen in this day and age.

Just re-watching it now and can't say I find it difficult myself. But then again, I do watch 5 or 6 games a week, every week for 21 weeks every year.

Fair play to the Packers, did think Steelers would win comfortably so absolutely gutted they didn't. The best team (on the night) won and Rodgers kept his head and played well. Big Ben had a weak game by his standards...

He's not as good as his 2 Super Bowl rings suggest. The Refs assisted his first and the Refs and the Steelers Defense assisted his second. Rodgers is leagues ahead of Ben Worthlessraper as a Quarterback.

In the States they are, yes. We don't get to see them over here.
