It was pretty much all over from there.



Safety scored at 12 seconds into the game.

KO return to start the 2nd half, 12 seconds off the clock.

OK, I've ignored the troll. The rest of you can't.

Suckers.

I was traveling and missed the game. My life goes on. I would have muted the commercials anyway. It's only proof positive of what sheep people are, that they look forward to hugely overly expensive 30 second spots that manipulate them into wanting things they don't need.

Not to get tangential, but the root of evil in government and politics is money, and the source of that money is corporations, and the way they keep that money flowing is to convince all you sheep to buy shit you don't need. Now they've even convinced you to love the brainwashing they do to you.

2+2=5

I am not the sucker of the day.

Sorry to kick over your high horse, but I watch the ads becuase they are usually (not always) pretty clever (sure, to sell stuff, but I don't even recall what most are selling) and entertaining (I still pull up that kid-as-Vader ad from a few years back because its so damned cute), and often simply technical marvels (as a filmmaker, Im always interested in seeing what can be accomplished).

I honestly couldn't really give a shit about the guys running into each other on the field. And, if ya want to be judgmental, fan of such can also be looked down on (whether you smugly turn down the sound or not) for a number of reasons, too. Its not like the NFL is some big altruistic endeavor.

To each his own.

No. Some Americans are mad that this country is being destroyed. Not by foreign speaking immigrants, which it's always had, but by mindless incivility and a lack of appreciating the American ideals of freedom and unity. You know " ONE NATION ... " ?

But failed to criticize the vastly more numerous and hateful mindless incivility of others.

I asked you a question earlier, if you disapproved of that incivility in equal proportion to the number of uncivil. It shouldn't be a difficult question, and there's no catch to the answer.

So, do you have a problem about the 'mindless incivility' that was posted about the ad, in proportion to the number of uncivil posts?

This should be an easy question.



Huh? You're asking the same thing twice.

If you want me to acknowledge that a handful of morons and idiots flock to posting online about an ad and if that some how reflects the attitude of the country as a whole, then my reply is , " why bother " ?

They are outliers, the noisy rabble which don't represent the vast majority of decent folk in this country. To give them more attention than they deserve is a counter productive endeavor.

Calling them morons and idiots isn't criticizing them ?

Oh, I see. You want me to hate them as much as you hate them, is that it ? And express my ( your ) disgust in EXACTLY the same tone and manner.

Gee. If I did that, one of us wouldn't be necessary.
