I haven't even bothered watching the Superbowl in years. When they started having acts like Katy Perry perform at halftime I threw in the towel.

I much more enjoy College football these days. I'll still watch an NFL game now and then though.
Snoop, Eminem, and Dre this year man. For shizzle my nizzle.

I had to look it up and you're right. Snoop and Eminem? I'll have to pass on that one. Too bad Prince isn't around to do an encore of his 2007 show. Nobody's going to top that.

You have that mixed up bud. stats and rating say different. Nobody will top Jackson and Timberlakes wardrobe malfunction. Lol.

also.Halftime show is meant to keep people from changing the channel like the normal for football games on any givin Sunday.

but this year is going to be more exciting than the last decade Just can’t see em doing a show like this. Or Dre. Or snoop. Talking about a curve ball

You'd think they could come up with something better than some old washed up rappers that were never that good to begin with. I wonder if Snoop wil even show up on time. He has a history of showing up late. Last time he came to Portland he showed up 2 hours late and left after 30 minutes in the middle of a song. Apparently those that hadn't already left booed him and threw beers on the stage. The guy's a tool. I won't be watching this year's halftime show either.

Now if they could book Iron Maiden then we'd have a show.

And Jags 20 game losing streak ends

I’m thinking that QB might make a difference lol
I'm wondering why the game was played in London England.....I've seen pre-season games played overseas but never a regular season game (but maybe I'm mistaken).

I lived in the UK for 6 months and IMHO they really could care less about American football, all they really care about is soccer/football and rugby.

Yes, that QB "Trevor Lawrence" did make a difference, this is his first year in the NFL, so it will take some time for him to excel but he proved yesterday that he has serious potential.

They have scheduled several regular season games across the pond to promote the game

ok...guess I was wrong but still think it's a total waste of effort as the Brits will never support NFL on a large scale

They would be better off playing a few games in Canada

I sorta agree but then again I never thought soccer would take such a hold in the US

Because the NFL is declining in the US as are most major league sports. They're trying to tap other markets. I'm surprised they don't play games in Mexico or allow franchises in Canada like MLB and the NBA have.

It could happen as the support for the Canadian Football League (CFL) is declining as well.

More and more Canadians are turning to the NFL and/or NCAA.

CFL was super entertaining back in the days when Warren Moon played for the Edmonton Eskimos but we have not seen that caliber of talent since.

There is only a few locations in Canada that a NFL team could be feasible...Toronto, Vancouver and maybe Montreal.

You mean legends? Cmon dude, just cause they're not your cup of tea doesnt mean that halftime show isnt going to be killer. Snoop, Dre, and Eminem will draw millions of viewers. The Maiden comment made me lol tho.

You ever heard of Fat Joe? You would've hated him too lol. I had a friend go to his show in Portland, Maine probably around 96/97. Joe was over an hour late to the show and was so hugely obese he had to perform sitting in a chair the whole show:-P

I missed that but agree. Cool to have a female reppin that time era as well as passing the torch to the younger gen having Kendric perform with them. Definitely a Inglewood connection. Good call

Fucking Super Bowl is an hour an change away from me and I won’t be anywhere near by when Super Bowl city starts. And I can only imagine if the rams go. Which this year. Looking like a strong possibility. The city is gonna turn upside down. Just like every year the lakers won the finals

I like some Rap but I've never cared that much for Snoops music. The best tracks he's on were all 2Pac songs. Some of those are classics.

I just don't see the lineup being a big hit. But I understand that the NFL has to settle for what they can get. I wonder if Snoop will make a statement and take a knee wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey. He's been pretty damn vocal about that situation over the years. I wouldn't put it past him to do something. I might just have to watch to see if he does. There might be some fireworks other than the pyrotechnical kind.


“Enough with the bulls**t. Which one of you NFL owners is gonna give Colin Kaepernick a job?," the rapper began his rant. "I like what y’all doing standing with the players and all that, but there are some sorry a** mothaf**kin’ quarterbacks in the NFL. My n***a need a job."

“Which one of y’all gonna give him an opportunity to get back on that football field? That’s what I wanna know,” he continued. “I’m down with y’all holding hands and takin’ a knee and all that, but which one of y’all gonna give cuz a job? ‘Cause he spoke up on some real s**t — police brutality, that’s still happenin’. So give him a job and then we’ll be halfway home.”

Hey anybody notice my Lions almost won a game this week

Coach says as long as this taste like dung to the players they will be ready next week though >:(

I guess losing for other teams isn't the same motivator ?

Such a lovely evening in Santa Clara for the SNF game....just a wee bit of rain but the wind wasn't as bad as expected.

The SF 49ers started out looking so strong that I was anticipating a complete blow out....but that didn't happen.

Way too many fumbles and interceptions by the 49ers gave the Colts a win.
