Anyone got a good quote for the super bowl thread?

oh hey there it is!

i know that speaking with the media is in his contract, but man these reporters are being such babies about marshawn lynch

http://burkemuseum.blogspot.com/2014/01/in-search-of-true-inspiration-for.html

so I spent 50 minutes in the tiny vestibule opposite Guest Relations in the Broncos' hotel tonight waiting for security to let us in to a previously Hyatt-cleared radio stunt party, before all eight of us were dismissed by a NJ state trooper.

Watched four Bronco buses from the stadium unload, didn't see Manning or whoever that slab is posted above. I did have the misfortune of seeing Joe Buck chilling and chatting 10 feet from us, but the glass barrier rendered him silent, so that was a mercy.

btw fuck this fascist league/sport/national religion forever, heil baby heil

^spoilers (also, Joe Robbie plays himself in that film)

I'm very impressed that sportswriters turned "marshawn lynch wouldn't talk to me" into a million thinkpieces. Good job guys.

'marshawn lynch not talking with the media is becoming a distraction'

http://nfl.si.com/2014/01/31/roger-goodell-washington-http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG-name/?eref=sihp

NEW YORK — NFL commissioner Roger Goodell backed the Washington http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG’ moniker Friday, stating that nine out of 10 Native Americans support the name.

That remark came during Goodell’s annual press conference on the Friday of Super Bowl week. Goodell actually was asked rather contentiously if he “would call a [Native American] a Redskin to his face?” The commissioner mostly sidestepped that question, instead offering up the reasoning behind not forcing Washington owner Daniel Snyder to change his team’s name.

“This is the name of a football team … [and it has been] presented in a way that honors Native Americans,” Goodell said.

In June, Goodell also argued for Snyder’s right to keep the http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG name in a letter sent to 10 members of Congress, who had called on the commissioner to step in.

“The Washington http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG name has … from its origin represented a positive meaning distinct from any disparagement that could be viewed in some other context,” Goodell wrote. “For the team’s million of fans and customers, who represent one of America’s most ethnically and geographically diverse fan bases, the name is a unifying force that stands for strength, courage, pride and respect.”

what the hell is this jingoist bullshit

i feel like i'm watching some kind of foxnews amerigasm

espn and the gruden/tirico cru should be mandated by exec order to do every super bowl

loool namath

lol wow

well alright then

uh 2nd time in 3 yrs the 1st score is a safety pays

lol

percys more explosive than any player denvers faced this postseason if he can stay on the field

reggie watts getting that bud light $, good for him

not a great sign for sea to have 3 scores and den only be down 1 possession

oh, i'd say things are looking okay for seattle.

so this rules so far but yeah a TD would be nice

omg that radio-shack commercial.

i enjoyed it

manning (is) going to get pummeled in the next few days

WORST SUPER-BOWL QUARTERBACK EVER.

It actually sucked. I'm surprised that's still a thing. Smith handled it real cool though.

ha i missed it and just assumed you dudes were making a joke about pete carroll

Legion of Boom went from great to scary great last night if what they're saying is true.

Seattle is pretty much loaded, probably one of the best all around clubs in a while. If they can keep it together and not lose too many pieces to free agency and are able to keep reloading, they should be pretty much set for the next couple of seasons.

just for clarity, my 'that was wonderful' was for the game

and me otm

Will Brinson ‏@WillBrinson 6h
Seahawks set the Super Bowl record for most playing time with the lead: 59 minutes, 48 seconds

the percy return td was :12 seconds into the 2nd half, same amt of time as the safety in the 1st, weird

what the hell is this jingoist bullshit

In the NFL? :o

Did someone actually fuck a drone on the field or something?

yes. it was weird but compelling.

i'm sure the seahwaks got some good stuff out of tape study, but "the quarterback's eyes will lead you to the ball" is not some kind of stunning revelation, lol.

http://www.theonion.com/articles/troy-aikman-fruitlessly-attempts-to-conjure-super,35144/

yeah i figure (or at least like to imagine) there's more to it than just 'follow his eyes', remembering how the 2001 giants supposedly figured culpepper's tell or whatever during the 2001 nfc championship.

casino for super bowl MVP

lol Kam

seems like an embarrassing super-bowl loss for peyton manning caused that shitty papa john's to cut him from its commercials. so ultimately, the embarrassing super-bowl loss was worth it.

really?? lol

small sample-size, but i've seen three commercials from that shitty papa john's pizza tonight.

shitty papa john's ceo -- 3
embarrassed peyton manning -- 0

hey, guess what? peyton manning owns a papa john's restaurant, and they're awful to their employees. who would've guessed?

Rob Fee @robfee -- Use the promo code PEYTON when ordering a Papa Johns pizza & when it’s delivered to your house, a Seattle DB will take it from you & eat it.

lol

TRAGICK ‏@Tragick92 -- The Papa John's double cheeseburger pizza commercial was their back up plan after Peyton Manning failed them last night. #papajohns

Jennifer B ‏@Jen_in_Cali310 -- Whats the difference between Peyton Manning and Papa Johns? ……

Papa johns delivers during the Super Bowl.

__________________________

Jenny Johnson ‏@JennyJohnsonHi5 -- Better pull it together Peyton, cuz Papa John has murdered 3 pizza delivery guys with his bare hands since the Super Bowl started.

Matt O'Brien ‏@ObsoleteDogma -- Don't feel too bad for Peyton Manning. He owns Papa John's stores in a state that just legalized pot.

HistoryGoon ‏@HistoryGoon -- I'm rooting for Seattle; a cool, progressive city w/ great fans. But also because Peyton Manning hangs with that #douchebag Papa John.

you said it, HistoryGoon.

"Don't feel too bad for Peyton Manning. He owns Papa John's stores in a state that just legalized pot."

That's a good line.

man speaking of retro-super bowl i just remembered an old joke:

q: how many denver broncos does it take to change a light bulb?

a: one, unless it's a blow out then the whole team shows up

Denver got a lot of crap for getting beat in the Superbowl, but really they never were the favorites back in the day.

No one gave them a shot in heck against the Niners in 1990, I swear I think the spread was something like 27 or 28 points for SF going into the game and they covered it. That Niners club was probably their best one, they were just loaded everywhere. They won their three playoff games by a combined total of 126-23, annihilating everything in their path.

lol i remember this si vividly -
