bolty58 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Chuffed with the result but, fucking hell, that half time show. No secret that I am an unabashed fan of the hot Latina. Two of the sexiest women on the planet together? Walking three legged. Quote
Rizlar Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 49ers just could not keep Mahomes quiet for 4 quarters . Quote
Zico Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) fell asleep with 10 minutes left, last thing I remember was Chiefs getting intercepted was all confused when I woke up whilst the trophy was being presented Mahomes was having a shocker early doors Edited February 3, 2020 by ZicoKelly Quote

As a spectacle doesn’t come close imo. And revenue wise I’m not sure but again if the World Cup final was every year it would decrease in novelty Also equate to only one country giving a flying fuck for Super Bowl and every country except Scotland embracing the World Cup.

Not quite the case really though. You might not like American football but it’s a globally watched sport. and as for the World Cup it’s embraced by most up here especially when England are in the tournament. Quote
Zico Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 nice of Trump to give a shout out to the state of Kansas Quote
birch-chorley Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I fell asleep at half time and woke up at the end of the third, 49’eers well in control I think that 3rd and 15 where KC made 40 yards was the key play, after that Sam Fran didn’t get close to them Quote
frank_spencer Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Chuffed for the human walrus finally winning a Superbowl. Mahomes and the chiefs offence is just remarkable. Quote

While it may be watched a bit all over the world it is played (almost exclusively) in USA. For that reason, I reckon I'm right with my point that only one country gives a flying fuck about it. Quote
frank_spencer Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 The Germans bloody love it. They make up a decent chunk of the crowd at the London games. My Canadian relatives are massive Saskatchewan roughriders fans. Sent my mum home with loads of merch for me, my dad and my lad. It's definitely not played at any great level outside North America but the interest is definitely there. Quote
Spider Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 There'll be a London frachise within 10 years. Unfortunately it'll be the Jagwars, but it's still a franchise. They will also continue with 2-3 International games. It's massive over here nowadays. Honestly. Quote

If it is jaxonville craven cottage will go and shad khan will build a new ground for flum and the jags I reckon. Not sure I'm overly fussed about a British team. Quote

frank_spencer Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Unless they rebrand as the London monarchs complete with similar jerseys and logo. Then I may be tempted Quote
snowball Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I would happily buy a season ticket for NFL in London . Be awseome Quote

Be awseome Thing is, the teams that play in London tend to have a bye the week after Couldn't see a team playing alternate weekends in two different countries Quote

There is even a league here in Perth. When I was playing for the Bolton Braves, a Manchester derby between the Spartans and the Allstars was pulling 5 digit crowds. The days of the London Ravens and London Monarchs playing in front of very large crowds all over Europe was also around that time. Quote
frank_spencer Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Another step towards them moving over here you reckon? Quote
MancWanderer Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Amazingly managed to keep away from the result Just watched the SB. Very good game. Not great just very good and very entertaining Showed all that’s good about both teams. Mahomes - just ridiculously good. Chiefs offense - stepped up when needed to. 49ers - turned to the running game and imo surprised the Chiefs by being very, very good at it Mahomes definitely the next Brady. 49ers? Look very good going forward to next season - when you think where they were a couple of seasons ago it’s a great story. Perhaps shows the draft system works?? Anyway. Enjoyed the whole season. Very unpredictable and some superb standout players have emerged. Roll on next year when I must get to a game Quote
bolty58 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Have to say that, much as I like the fact that we have some hardcore and informed NFL fans on here, this site is going to the dogs. Not too long ago, the curves of Shakira and J-Lo would have constituted the vast majority of this years Superbowl conversation. Worrying times indeed. Quote

I do love the fact the yank prudes have been in outrage over the show. Both for it being too sexual and too political. Quote
