OT: Does anyone else not care about the super bowl?
I love football, I watch High Schhool, College, and Professional football religiously.
But the super bowl seems too over the top. I don't want to discuss the game with my coworker Tracy who believes that a tight end is why you to to the gym.
Sorry for the rant. There has to be more people out there?

No. Not since Detroit lost.
February 11th, 2024 at 7:29 PM ^
No. I love football. 🏈
February 11th, 2024 at 7:35 PM ^
I was riding the train home with Ravens fans after the AFC Championship and many of them threatened not to watch although I am still watching
The ads have been okay so far plus...it's the super bowl

If the GOAT isn’t playing, I’m not really interested. Not a fan of the NFL.
February 12th, 2024 at 4:52 AM ^
The GOAT may very well have been playing. At this rate, at least, it seems possible.
February 11th, 2024 at 7:59 PM ^
The Lions loss stole my NFL soul. I'll get it back at the draft, I hope. I'm only watching because my kid's teacher has a son playing for the Chiefs, #31.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:00 PM ^
I'm working tonight. If it was Michigan, I'd be getting up real early instead.
I caught a few downs when I went downstairs to get a drink. Saw the Pacheco fumble.
What do you expect from a Rutger.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:06 PM ^
Nope, I'm here.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:16 PM ^
I’m just here for the junk food.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:17 PM ^
I've watched every Super Bowl so there's no way I would consider breaking my streak.
But seldom (if ever) have I been this disinterested.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:21 PM ^
I'm a Browns fan. I never care about the Super Bowl.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:23 PM ^
* raises hand *
I'll watch it since my son is a huge Niners fan and because it's my last taste of football for 6+ months, but the Super Bowl pretty much epitomizes all of the reasons why I prefer college football to the NFL.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:26 PM ^
I always watch, even though the incessant commercial breaks make it as long as a college game. It's simply a better product.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:29 PM ^
Yes… movie night instead
February 11th, 2024 at 8:42 PM ^
Yeah, I can't get into it most years. I kinda like some of the dudes on the 9ers and the exposure of Mahomes/Kelce/Reid has really worn on me. But, this is not a particulary interesting game and even the halftime show is very meh to me. I can't stand the vast majority of the ads. But I turned it on bc what else is there to do? Actually, one year the game bored my girlfriend and I so much we turned on 90 Day Fiancee in like the 2nd quarter haha.
But. don't be fooled - the NFL wants you to think this overload of bullshit is the most important thing in the world. Don't let them.
Also: HOT TIP: If you're ever out of town this weekend, the Super Bowl is a great time to be on the road. A few years ago, I did NY to DC and Phila to DC and the roads were empty, made record time.
February 11th, 2024 at 8:49 PM ^
Ostentatious
February 11th, 2024 at 8:51 PM ^
I like and watch college football. I quit following the NFL many years ago. Had nothing to do with Kapernick . I just only watched to see how my fantasy players were doing . I quit FF and the NFL had no appeal to me anymore .
February 12th, 2024 at 12:11 AM ^
What does Colin Kaepernick have to do with anything?
February 11th, 2024 at 9:00 PM ^
I’m loving the commercials!
February 11th, 2024 at 9:04 PM ^
Couldn't care less. NFL lost me years ago.
February 11th, 2024 at 9:20 PM ^
Smoking a super bowl would make the Super Bowl a lot more fun!
February 11th, 2024 at 9:23 PM ^
Lions aren’t in it, no care
February 11th, 2024 at 9:25 PM ^
It’s actually a pretty entertaining game. I’m not sure why any football fan wouldn’t be watching. So what if your team (whichever that may be for any given fan) isn’t in it—isn’t that the case most years?
February 11th, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
Waste Management had a nice finish to the final round. Switched to Super Bowl after that and meh.
February 11th, 2024 at 9:43 PM ^
NFL sucks.
February 11th, 2024 at 9:52 PM ^
I'll take Dua Lipa over Taylor all day, every day.
February 11th, 2024 at 9:55 PM ^
Honestly, I don't care one way or another.
February 11th, 2024 at 10:02 PM ^
Halftime show was legit though
February 11th, 2024 at 11:04 PM ^
I thought the planned meteor strike took care of that?
February 11th, 2024 at 11:15 PM ^
Missed the first half for a shootaround with some of the kids from my daughter's hockey team. Absolutely the right choice.
February 11th, 2024 at 11:20 PM ^
I didn't care about the outcome of the Super Bowl until my wife told me that she read that Tucker Carlson was so wrapped up in Taylor Swift conspiracy theories that he said that he'd kill himself if the Chiefs won. I'm sending him a big knife, gun, sturdy rope and bottle of poison in an overnight package first thing tomorrow morning.
February 12th, 2024 at 12:10 AM ^
What part of no politics do you fucking moron's not understand
February 12th, 2024 at 1:21 AM ^
I'm a Lions fan and if Josh did not drop the 4th down pass, the Lions would probably be playing KC in the super bowl. Since I live close to KC, I usually root for the Chiefs but this Swifty shit has turned me off. I really don't care who wins.
February 12th, 2024 at 7:55 AM ^
I was very uninterested in the Super Bowl..
February 12th, 2024 at 9:46 AM ^
It was on, I was at a place where people watched it. I caught a couple plays out of the corner of my eye, but I really didn't care in the slightest.
February 12th, 2024 at 2:25 PM ^
I really love football. I can’t stand the celebrity slurpfest
