Super Bowl

Any thoughts on the game?

Who are people rooting for?

Who do you think will win?

Placing any bets?

 Personally, I could not care less about this Super Bowl. You have two teams that I feel have taken advantage of the rules to win/be gifted games. The NFL, in my opinion, is fixed in a manner of "helping" teams with rule interpretations by the refs, as seen in most of the Chiefs games. The Eagles have come up with the "tush push" - which is up for possibly being banned next year, and, in my opinion, illegal. You can't even breathe near Mahomes without a penalty being called and he "flops" with the best of them and whines like LeFlop James. Just the fact that so many have talked about the refs and seeing multiple game videos of the pathetic refs decisions makes me not to care about the game. Attending the game is out of reach for most - the prices are outlandish, tickets, parking, food, drink,etc. Viewing anywhere in Vegas is now pretty much pay-per-view - as it is at one's home. So, how do I think about who shall win? I don't care, though I am sure the "winner" has already been decided by the NFL front office. The only winners will, as usual, be the bookies. 

I actually don't know who's playing the latest sportsball game.  Based on the hype it appears its happening soon.  I don't have any desire to watch millionaires play a game against other millionaires in a billionaire's giant concession stand.

Still trying to figure out who Elon wants to win. If Elon's favorites are losing, Trump will order a power cutoff to the stadium.

I think the line is pretty accurate, as I would expect the KC Taylor Swifts to win just a bit over half of the time. 

Enjoy watching the game. I expect a fun and close contest.

Relax, by this time next year we'll have gladiatorial games among tens of thousands of former government employees. Lots of betting opportunities. Never bet against a combatant who used to work for the DMV.

The Eagles have come up with the "tush push"

Every team uses it now, the Eagles are just better at it.  It is a dangerous play & likely to be banned.

Mahomes is overly protected, much like brady before him.  The best players are always protected in every sport, not right but a fact of life.

seeing multiple game videos of the pathetic refs decisions 

I have officiated football from high school, small college to semi-pro .  In the NFL you have 7 people watching very big and fast people, not an easy task.  The mistakes by the officials are no different than the fumbles, interceptions, missed blocks, tackles, dropped passes and missed assignments.  The game is played by humans who make human mistakes. 

sure the "winner" has already been decided by the NFL front office..

In order for that to happen the league would have to make sure the 7 officials, the replay booth official, NY replay as well as the technicians are all in on it.  To be safe throw in a few players.  To many people for a conspiracy to work without being exposed.  Plus the league has hundreds of billions at stake.  Why risk all that money?

And 1 injury and it all falls apart.  Remember the player who blew his knee going out for the coin toss?

I would like to see the Eagles win, like many tired to taylor swift and the chiefs.

Rotel cheese dip with Doritos Scoops, Gin & Tonic.

Some drunk driver will crash into a pole, knock out Cable and Internet for the whole city at start of 3rd quarter.

Either way, I'll be  asleep by halftime.

I'm not a sports bettor, but I do bet $10 every month to earn 1 tier point to qualify for casino cash and free play at my local casino.  I took the Chiefs at -120, the wife informed me she took Shaquon Barkley to score during the game for -200, I like her bet better for a sure win. Oh well, I hope we both win, even as a Bronco fan I have a soft spot for the Chiefs, my dead they were my Grandmothers team to root for.

There's a lot of KC disdain out there..primarily because they've won so regularly over the last few years. Typical fan envy stuff. I'm betting on the Chiefs..they have that elusive formula for finding ways and means to win games. The latter goes way beyond X's and O's. Course, the other reason I'm backing the Chiefs is that I can't stand the Eagles despite an elite QB, the rushing champion, and a good offensive line. I can't stand them because they're simply a long-term rival of my Cowgirls in the NFC East. See how fickle we are as fans? But, I can't stand the Cowboys of late , either. Fair and balanced..

The "finding a way to win" sure looks like it involves seeking "outside help" when the game is on the line, like when Buffalo was actually winning late in the game during the AFC Championship. That outside help did not disappoint. You have to admire the refs for keeping a straight face--I for one wouldn't have been able to make some of those calls without bursting out laughing.

That's why I'm betting KC (modestly), as they have that trump card to play if needed. It should be a fun game to watch, and yes, I can't stand the Eagles, either. Besides, good barbecue beats the hell out of even the best cheesesteak.
