ESPN and 'Star Wars' are both owned by Disney so essentially a free commercial.

Spreading the NFL taint to the Star Wars franchise. Did marketing sign off on this or did they have any option?

I don’t care if they have 50 dancing bears playing an orchestra, I’d rather watch Golden Girls reruns.

I have been a Star Wars fan since the first movie came out, but this won’t make me tune into an NFL game. Especially with the rumors I have heard that a Star Wars character will “come out of the closet.” Aye yay yay, it is getting harder all the time to find entertainment that hasn’t succumbed to “political correctness.”

I’m assuming the African American guy is going to be the pilot’s gay lover anyway. Or the two robots will get it on, C3PO was always questionable.

The essence is...they’re hoping and praying (to whatever God they worship) that Star Wars fans will watch the game to see that trailer. And...they’ll likely show it near the end of the game.

Boy, are they in for a surprise.

I don’t have ESpeeN or any other cable satellite nonsense at my house. Have not suffered through Monday night fool ball since they went to ESpeeN.
Don’t and will not miss any of it.

Sorry,I don't watch the NFL and I'm not interested in any but the first three Star Wars films which I bought long ago on bluray...and just might buy again if they're released in 4K.
