Super Bowl XLV Discussion

Actually...Fisha is technically right....There official colors are listed as Green and Gold. Though that is clearly yellow in their Uni's.

Wanna hear the excuses from espn etc. why Rodgers still isnt better than their boys manning and brady. he played a frigin awesome game and if it wasnt for so many drops they woulda easily scored 40+ on the best defense

He's a hell of a quarterback, but better than Manning and Brady? Im with ESPN...He hasn't done enough yet. (Not that he won't, but right now, he isn't there yet.)

Yes he has much SB success as Peyton, but He doesnt have the stats/records/awards.

And he doesn't have SB success like Brady does, or stats/records/awards.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!! Someone finally stopped Pittsburgh in the SB! I usually hate the Packers (a respectful hate), but tonight I was all about the green and yellow!!

Didn't it seem like the commentators were totally pulling for the Steelers? On the last play (I don't count kneel-downs as plays) they were so quick to say there was a pass interference no-call when they barely even grazed each other. Come on guys, if you're going to make acccusations at least look at the replay before you start trying to make the Steelers sound like they got ripped off.

Anyway, who thought that the "Your rack is unreal" commercial was the funniest super bowl ad ever? Me and my dad were practically rolling on the floor. I totally did not see it coming which made it even funnier, unlike Bud and Doritos when I knew so.ething was coming.

 

[flyersfan4888]

I say the Brisk tea ad with Eminem was pretty Boss-Status

 

[4WideRacing]

I know one thing the GoDaddy commercials were disappointing.

 

[moppenheimer]

I thought the Commercials as a whole were pretty bad this year. The Chrysler one was the best IMO.

Super Bowl XLV: Cowboys stadium falls short of Super Bowl attendance record - ESPN Dallas

So much for that record.

Most of the SB half time shows have been pretty bad the past few years. If they can't get a current popular pop artist, they go for the Strolling Bones or another classic rock band with like 1 or 2 original members. I say they go for a band like Soundgarden or Stone Temple Pilots. Hell, bring on Alice In Chains even!

Pearl Jam.

Alice in Chains for the win!!!!! Yeah this years halftime show was complete garbage.

However the Rolling Stones one wasn't too bad in my opinion.

 

[SKiNDATA]

I'm just glad to see someone different win it then the same teams every year. The Packers definitely showed they don't need Favre anymore. I'm just disappointed in seeing my Eagles not even do much of anything in the post season. Oh well, already can't wait for next year..err well this year I guess...How awesome would it be for the NFL to have a schedule like NASCAR? I know it's kind of dumb sounding but the offseason is WAY to long. Good thing right after the NFL season ends, NASCAR comes back in to fill the lonely 7 months.

 

[The Captain]

I'm a fan of the old guy halftime shows. ZZ Top! Heck I even think Billy Joel would be a good show.

 

[Fisha695]

I think the Packers fanbase would beg to differ.

looks pretty yellow to me, plus their main 'thing' is cheese... :twitcy:

Doesn't matter what the fanbase thinks. Offical team colors according to the team & the NFL are "Dark Green" & "Athletic Gold".

Steelers & Redskins also use the "Athletic Gold", whereas the Saits, 49ers and I think maybe 1 more team use a shade called "Old Gold".

Last real good one that I really remember was the one with Aerosmith back in 2001. Sure Tom & Bruce a few years back were good too, but the last 1 that I really remember going "Wow that was good" was Aerosmith. I think though that was because it had a little bit of everything, Modern Pop groups, Aerosmith, & Rap/hip-hop, not to much of any one thing. Plus the stage/setup was pretty good too, simple but not plain.

Plus they had that cool camera setup that spun around the stage really fast haha.

 

[moppenheimer]

The halftime show should've been billed as "Slash: featuring Usher, with the comedic stylings of the Black Eyed Peas".

And Christina Aguilera messing up the anthem proves that it should be illegal for her to go within 100 feet of a mic or camera.

1. There might not be a next season (damn labor disputes)
2. (this goes back to 1), The players union are already complaining about a potential 18-game season, what do you think if the NFL goes for the 36-40-game season?
