The video was really good. Marshawn actually seems like a pretty fun guy IRL, although that just makes the whole media thing more troubling, honestly. And the subtlety of the "what you on" was, well, interesting.

I was thinking he seemed pretty cool also. Not like the jerk the media wants us to believe. I'd hang out with him all day.

The 'what you on' was funny....

Nah, let's be fair here. He was portraying himself to the media as a total jerk; not the other way around. The video only demonstrated that he can be sociable for a crowd when it's on his terms.

FINAL SCORE...

SEAHAWKS - 21
PATS - 17

Seahawks D will be the reason. Brady is in for a long day.

Man, this will be the third superbowl I've watched, with this season being the first I've followed all the way through. I hope it isn't as bad as the last one.

RoeDent · « **Reply #4067 on:** January 31, 2015, 04:00:27 PM »

It'll be my 6th full Super Bowl, and as it doesn't kick off until 11:30pm my time, I'm in for a long day tomorrow.

Are Thomas and Sherman at 100% I like Brady and Gronk in this matchup.

Wilson vs. Revis Island and company? Not so much.

New England wins, 34-20.

Cool Chris · « **Reply #4069 on:** January 31, 2015, 04:47:40 PM »

I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, we were going to win last year. There was no way an old Manning and an ill-prepared Jon Fox were going to be able to score enough to win. After that tough win over the Niners, Hawks were not going to lose that game.

I do not have that feeling this year. This Pats team doesn't scare me, but they don't give me a feeling of an easy win.

The first Super Bowl I watched was Super Bowl X between Pittsburgh and Dallas in 1976.

Holy fuck I'm OLD.

I remember my parents watching the Super Bowl where Miami finished their perfect season, but I started watching football as a kid in 1975 so that was my first Super Bowl. I've watched every one since.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4074 on:** January 31, 2015, 07:54:50 PM »

The first SB I remember was 1977. Them Boys crushed the Orange Crush.

jammindude · « **Reply #4075 on:** January 31, 2015, 08:05:58 PM »

And to continue the theme chronologically...mine was 1978 SB XIII Pit vs Dallas. Pit pretty much owned the game, but Dallas did make it a bit scary down the stretch.

I don't think any SB before or since had so many HoF players on the field all at the same time.

Anyone else watch the NFL Honors show? Seth Myers' opening monologue was awesome. Him poking fun at Luck's neck beard and telling him that he plays QB, not the banjo, was hysterical.

Only to get shutdown by the refs.

Glad to see Charles Haley and Tim Brown finally get in. Surprised to see Warner and Pace left out.

KevShmev · « **Reply #4078 on:** February 01, 2015, 07:03:42 AM »

Warner and Pace won't have to wait long to get in. Even though I hate the Raiders, Tim Brown was long deserving of getting in. Charles Haley should have been a no-brainer years ago. The Bettis selection still makes me ill.

Destiny Of Chaos · « **Reply #4079 on:** February 01, 2015, 07:22:47 AM »

I don't ever recall a point in time where Bettis was the best RB in the game. But he is #6 All time in rushing yards. And everyone else in the top 10 (minus LaDainian Tomlinson, who will most likely be inducted in the future) is already in the Hall of Fame. So I'm fine with him getting in. But him getting in over some of the players that aren't in... yeah, that's questionable.

Zantera · « **Reply #4080 on:** February 01, 2015, 07:29:20 AM »

Go Seahawks.

KevShmev · « **Reply #4081 on:** February 01, 2015, 07:30:45 AM »

What's funny is looking at the career YPC for each top 10 RB in rushing yards:

E. Smith 4.2
W. Payton 4.4
B. Sanders 5.0
C. Martin 4.0
L. Tomlinson 4.3
J. Bettis 3.9
E. Dickerson 4.4
T. Dorsett 4.3
J. Brown 5.2
M. Faulk 4.3

The worst. Oh, and let's not forget his whopping postseason YPC of 3.4.

Pats 27 -24. More importantly, wings, philly cheese steaks, burgers, hummus and veggies for the weaklings, soft pretzels, queso, quacamole and chips. Blue Moon, Bud and some harder stuff. Why don't they do this on Saturday so we can have Sunday to recover?

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4083 on:** February 01, 2015, 08:59:55 AM »

Damn great game today. Could go both ways but homer pick is 24-21, Pats.

gmillerdrake · « **Reply #4084 on:** February 01, 2015, 10:16:19 AM »

I don't like one team more than the other....in fact, for me it's which team do I dislike more.....which would be the Patriots, but....if Seattle has their typical 'slow' first half I think the Patriots are just the team to not let them off the hook like the rest of the teams they've played have. It could very well be 21-7, 14-3, 21-0......something like that at the half in favor of the Pats and I dont see them letting Seattle back in the game if that was the case. I don't see Seattle being able to get up like that on the Pats....given the way they've started thus far in the playoffs.

It should be a good game to watch though.....and, I typically suck at predictions so my post is largely a bunch of BS.

El Barto · « **Reply #4085 on:** February 01, 2015, 11:31:55 AM »

Sadly I finally had to lock in my SEA pick. What I've got stuck in my head is the week 1 game against Miami. They set the gameplan for beating NE and the teams that have played well against them have followed that plan. Seattle has a better run game and pass rush than anybody else they've played and that should be the difference maker.

That said, NE won't fall apart down the stretch like GB did, so if Wilson is as sucktastic to start this game as he was two weeks ago it's NE all the way.

Rattlehead · « **Reply #4088 on:** February 01, 2015, 11:57:37 AM »

Should be a good game for the most part, but I have Seattle winning 31-20. I don't think New England will be able to establish the run and that will ultimately end up being the difference. It'll be close for a while, but I can see a big turnover happening towards the end to put the game out of reach for New England. Of course, I wouldn't be shocked if I was way off and New England ended up winning because these are clearly two great teams.

I am reminded of one year where I was over at my friend's watching the game, and in a fit of whimsy I said "I'll chug a beer every time the NFC team scores!"

That team was the 49ers, and it was the year they dropped 55 on Denver
