Not believing the numbers

"Of course it’s “most streamed game ever” "

I watched it by mail.

I call it the KKK Halftime Show.....................

I watched the WokeBowl. Superbowl ads used to be fun and interesting, now they're unwatchable. Apparently half the US population are trim, well spoken, successful black women.

I think:

1. It didn't help that the game was uncompetitive by the end of the first half.
2. Nielsen has serious trouble getting numbers from streaming services and from community viewing.

I and the Wife watched just to see if the kneeling thing would happen. We also wanted to see Brady beat the crap out of the snot-nose kid. What a wipe out - should have bet the spread because I was thinking something like that would occur.

The commercials were not up to par and controversial. The half-time show was ... what was it? They had some young black singer that the over 40 audience wouldn't know. Besides the over the top lighting display behind him, he had all those mannequins prancing around like it meant something. We laugh all the way through it. It was a mess.

I had no idea who he was........................

I’m about ready to give up on network television altogether. I enjoyed watching the show Prodigal Son with my wife, up until now. Every single episode thus far I have been lectured about “systemic racism.”

Too bad. It was a good show.

Wrecked already.

Why now I pretty much watch foreign shows.

Stumbled on a cool Russian detective show called “Second Sight” on You Tube, it has English subtitles. I enjoy these shows better than any crap Hollywood comes up with.

My fourteen year old son sometimes gives me a bad time for watching old movies and tv shows. I told him exactly why I do. They truly are escapism these days.

[Newtoidaho]

Didn’t watch it, Didn’t miss it.
The NFL is mostly an afterthought now to me, and I was a big fan for a long time up until a few years.

[Rebelbase]

The total viewership might move up a couple of points were Nielsen able to tally totals from the streaming bootleg sports sites.

[BiglyCommentary]

it has English subtitles

Tough thing about watching those is you can't phone surf while watching. Eyes down to the phone and whoops, missed the text. Watched one recently in French called "Bright Eyed Revenge.

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

If they would only shame and insult the white audience more, oh and have more gold grill rapping trash for the half time show.

[FreedBird]

Can’t relate to commercials on MSM anymore. Glad there is a mute button. There are some sick commercials on the tube.

Bob Uecker approves your post!

From the front row, of course.

[Afterguard]

I was actually surprised when someone tokd me the SB was on. Didn’t care then, still dont.

Brady also shattered his own record as the oldest Super Bowl-winning QB at the AARP-looming age of 43. Brady is the first QB to win the Super Bowl in three different decades and the first player to clench multiple titles after the ripe old age of 40.

Since no one puts a hand on Brady he could easily play for years. It's not a 'rough and tumble' game if you NEVER get taken down...

[Leep]

Did America win?
