There is seldom a real underdog when it comes down to a final and whilst not understanding the rules very much, I thought the better team on the day won.

I knew that American Football is not really a healthy sports, but that the serious injuries and traumata as well as the suicide rates due to brain degeneration processes is THAT high, I did not know. At a professional level at least, a good amount of reality denial seems to be part of the deal.

In German, sorry.

Add to that the immense weight and fat problem of certain player groups. That will take revenge on their bodies after their careers as well.

It seems to me it is a player processing industry.

Old No. 7 drank too much old No. 7?

The Broncos might have faired better if they had put Tebow at the helm.

Instead, Timmy was stumping for... something. I don't remember what.

Or maybe some of Broadway Joe's bad luck rubbed off on the Broncos when they lost the coin toss and created history with the fastest scoring drive... for the opposing team.

Time out-->Denver.

The only positive highlight was Flea coming out shirtless. He should of borrowed Joe's Raccoon coat. But, I hear that some PETA member doused it with blood. Not really.

Would of been cool though.

I can sum up this years hyped up spectacle with one word...
Boring! Even the commercials sucked.

Yeah, this was a groaner. Manning has cemented his reputation as a great regular season player and a big game choker. Very sad.

I did enjoy the Tebow commercials, I hope that lad gets a team next year.

So does Tim Tebow. Unless Hollywood finds a spot for him...
A frying pan to flash him in.

I can't read German, so I only have what you wrote to respond. I have been working also in sports medicine for the past 13 years. From what you wrote, it seems the article may be exaggerating reality. Right now there is no proven link between concussions and suicide. It is suspected and is currently being studied. That is all we know right now. Although there is a small number of NFL players that are too fat, there is not necessarily an overweight problem. As far as your opinion of "not a healthy sport." I will agree that serious injuries are greater than in other sports. I do disagree that it is "unhealthy."

How did the NFL allow a high school team from Denver to compete in this year's Superbowl? Were the Broncos unavailable?...

<O>

Clearly.

Super Bowls rarely play out the way we think they will.

I had a bunch of friends over for the game. Many left at halftime.

We sure did not expect Denver to just roll over and take that kind of an arse kicking.

That play must have spooked manning ... did you see him go over and sit down with a scowl on his face? He didn't even have the usual red forehead marks yet.

He should've gone over to the center and said, "hey man it's okay" and apologized.

I call this one the "Slumber Bowl" I ate a whole pizza all by myself and fell asleep as soon as it was over.

Did you see the John Fox interview he sounded drunk slurring his words and the game was just over.

Now that I think about it this was the "Fantasy Bowl"

I thought it was going to be Denver broncos all the way

Post title should have been........
So how about that Stupor Bowl?

I couldn't even tell you who was in it the day before.
That's how close I follow Sports.
But this year sets a new record for 'Worst I ever wasted time watching'

Everything about it was below the lowest point ever for a 'Super Bowl' I spent time watching.
