Sure. But what that means is that you have management expecting immediate results by throwing a bunch of money at a team despite hitting the reset button, which often does not bode well.

^This. As a Vikings fan, I can agree... just look at the Kirk Cousins experiment. I hope he goes to the 49ers like I'm hearing. Watching him play is like watching your phone fall off a bridge.

Fire the Cannons!

That game was pretty disappointing.

... unless you're a Bucs fan, I guess

It was good up until the point where they made the consecutive stops at the 1 yard line. From there on out, the Chiefs plan of attack was as follows:

Step 1: Commit penalties
Step 2: .....
Step 3: Win Super Bowl

I was generally impressed by how good TB's defense looked. I didn't think anyone would frustrate Mahomes that much and completely squash the run game, especially Tampa. Brady could have sat home and they'd have still won that game.

Mahomes didnt look as bad as Scam Newton in his SB loss, but close - hated to see it in a way because Mahomes doesnt appear to be the POS that Newton is. Maybe him and Rodgers should make a few less State Farm Commercials.

I had a hard time routing for the Bucs but after hearing for 2 weeks how the Bucs had no chance and being surrounded by annoying people from Nebraska who are also Chiefs fans it made it worthwhile.

I'm curious... why is Cam is POS?

Collegiate cheat and a thief, although that probably describes 90% of the NFL players -

I though the SB was pretty cool this year. I'm a big fan of seeing GOAT candidates write history. I've never been a huge Tom Brady, Patriots, or Tampa Bay fan, but it's hard to argue that a 43 year old QB winning his 7th SB and 5th SB MVP in his first season with a new team is pretty incredible. I feel the same way about watching Lebron James winning the 2020 NBA Finals with his 3rd different team. And watching Tiger Woods in the early 2000's, just whooping everybody's ass. Watching these once in a lifetime athletes write history is fascinating, regardless of how I feel about them personally or their teams.

Never been a fan of Brady. One, there was too much shady **** going on when he was at New England, and while you can't necessarily say it was him, I still feel like there's some guilt by association for using the ill gotten advantages. Two, I just don't think he's that great of a QB. I think most of his success is the result of having a bunch of better players around him, getting lucky, and let's be honest, some generous officiating due to him being a giant crybaby.

I think Mahomes was still suffering the effects of his concussion and bothered by his toe injury...He seemed off...He's a really great QB, and can throw the ball like a laser. I don't think TB's defense is as good as they looked last night, but maybe.

Also, I know everyone hates on Brady, but TB wouldn't have been there last night without him...Maybe he'll hang it up now.

 

[Supe]

I think their missing starting lineman made the biggest difference. All the guys had to shift and a totally green guy had to start. TB was in the backfield on nearly every play without even sending extra guys.

And who the hell was that guy at the half time show? Had anyone ever heard of him?

The Weeknd. Yeah he's kind of a big deal. He's been around for several years; he really started to be successful around 2016 or 2017. He kinda blew up in 2019.

Although even among fans, no one really like the halftime show because it had no energy

Not sure if these tweets are jokes, but seriously people:

Well, wearing jockstraps on their heads for costumes sure didn't help.

@ jockstraps

Not sure if you're joking, but that was supposed to be surgical gauze. Because he has a song that goes, "I can't feel my face when I'm with you / But I love it."

Also he did this (arguably) artistic, multi-month, fake plastic surgery thing last year. He started performing with a bruised, bloody face for a while. Then he performed with facial bandages. Then finally he released a music video where he appeared to have a new face (pointy nose, exaggerated cheek bones, thin lips, etc). It was actually just done with makeup. It was a character that went along with the new song. But people were speculating if it was real.

It was awful, send him back to Canada.

 

[snickerd3]

Just watched part of the superbowl video. Wow, I've never heard him sing before. That was horrible. He can't decide if he wants to be like Micheal Jackson or Neil Diamond.
