There have been so many awful Super Bowls that I turned off by the 4th quarter, that any of them that remain competitive til the end seem pretty good.

How was it boring? Colts driving with 4 minutes to go for the tie and the game essentially ends on a pick 6?
Second half onside kick?
Pretty darn good game.

Was Reggie Wayne actually running a route on that pick?

Didn't really watch the game, it sounded good.
Sounds like the Saints out coached, and out game planned the Colts.
I didn't turn around to watch the scrum for the onsides kick.
When the Saints won, I was over come with jealousy.
Though it was good to know that we got beat by the champs this year.....if only for a healthy team, and a pass rush.  |

If you were cheering on the Saints, it was a hell of an exciting game! If you wanted Indy to win, not so much!

Regardless of who you wanted to win, I thought it was pretty good. One of the better ones, in fact.

It was depressing. I hated seeing an underdog team do what we should have done last year after taking the lead...stopping the other team.
It brought back too many SB43 memories for me.

But he can't sing anymore (neither can Daultry, for the most part), and he hit a TON of bum notes last night.
That was embarrassing for the Who, I think. I was really looking forward to it, too. |

I hope that you, at least, appreciated those lovely Fender amps! 
Was just told the drummer was Zak Starkey. Whoa.

Dammit D, That's the same thing I was thinking! This is exactly why I wanted the Colts to win. Seeing them hoist that trophy after being just as bad (probably worse) that we have been historically was salt in the wound. This season can't starts soon enough! |

I think that this is the most interesting SB to date. In terms of playcalling and the chessgame that was going on.
Maybe not the most exciting finish as some of the SB's in recent years. It wasn't decided in the last seconds. But i don't think that makes a great game alone. It's not only about the finish, but abot the road to the finish as well.
This game was just on a higher level than any SB game before. I agree, not the most entertaining one to watch unless you pay details to the chessmatch behind it.
The halftime show was boring and the coverage of the game was not even close as good as you would expect for such a huge event.
But the chessmatch that was going on out there was amazing. Saints defense is the most underrated group in the NFL.

It just highlights all the wasted years this organization subjected the team and fans through before the light bulb turned on over the last few years.
