Rooting for Manning (sorry BG) although Wilson seems like a good kid.

That he does. Had no experience of him before today. If Peyton had to lose, he couldn't have found a nicer kid to lose to.

Good to see a team winning it for its first time. You never know if it's ever going to happen sometimes.

Wilson has a knack, plays smart, has a good head on his shoulders and humble. Still would've liked to Manning get another but didn;t even get a game. Worst SB in a while.

Watching the Pro Bowl was a lot more exciting than this game . . . really didn't expect such a blow out. Kind of a boring game to watch. Figured it would have been a lot closer than it was.

Felt bad for Manning, but happy to see the Seattle team take away their first Superbowl victory.

Ended up watching the game on the internet . . . not sure if that made a difference or not . . . but the ad quality was pretty bad. Must have seen ads for natural gas, Butterfinger and Sprint phone with Run DMC five or six times. Only one humorous ad -- Dohuahua. A lot of contrived, over-the-top sentimental ads.

Was it just me . . . or the sound . . . never heard Peyton yell Omaha.
 
OK, now that the big game is over, a heavy wet snow with quarter mile visibility is blanketing MetLife Stadium and most of NYC/NJ. This coupled with the fact that it was 50 degrees yesterday preceded by a week of single digit lows leads me to believe that the NFL has invested their billions in some type of weather control device... _g
 
Best part of THAT game was Our National Anthem being belted out repectfully by Renee Fleming.

She was fantastic, but there was too much background-it would have been better if it was just her. It does go to show you what a tough song it is to sing and how good classically trained opera singers are. Many platinum selling artists have struggled with the anthem in the past, but a true professional like Fleming really made it look effortless. That said, I don't question the respect of previous artists, just the level of ability.

A lot of contrived, over-the-top sentimental ads.

I agree-Budweiser commercials used to be so funny. Remember the donkey who wanted to be a Budweiser Clydesdale? The commercial with the lab was cute, but I'm biased on that one. The whole thing with the soldier coming home was totally contrived, yes that was wonderful that they did a parade, brought him to the game, etc...but he's one guy. If the want to help vets they should hire them, not use them as props...

Have to agree I was anticipating a much more exciting contest and closer finish. Didn't expect Seattle to dominate the field as they did. Jubilation abounds in Seattle and I am happy for the team and fans and pleased that in spite of massive young crowds partying out on the streets into the wee hours of morning, they were civil and non-violent.
 
As far as the commercials go, I also had to watch it streaming on Foxsportsgo & there was a lot of repetition. I DID chuckle at the Dobermann/Chihuahua Audi commercial. That was a HOOT!
