    American football is basically rugby with pads (wimpy rugby)...football in Europe is soccor here in America.

    I will not be watching the Superbowl. Mostly because I'm really sick of hearing about it. I haven't been able to go to into Detroit in two weeks because streets have been closed and there have been WAY to many people. So I'm boycotting it.

    And most of the commercials are silly and I've pretty much stopped watching all sports and most TV in general. Although, i can't wait for the Olympics to start on Friday. I never watch curling or speed skating on a regular basis, but there's just something about the best of the best in sports all around the world coming together. There's some kind of charm to it, I guess.

    heh, the olympics are way overhyped every year. the crowds and security is worse at olympic events than the superbowl..... I dont see how it could be any better than the superbowl. plus, its boring and never lives up to the hype, unless its mary lou retton.

    I'd rather watch the best from around the world play...then a few burly guys trying to kill eachother out in the field.

    If the Olympics come to Detroit, I'd hate it then too...LOL

    I was gonna watch it, was looking forward to it...but apparently there is zero chance of Janet gettin' her norks out again...so i prolly won't bother :(

    oh yeah, and a bunch of grown men in tight trousers also chase a pigs bladder around a field or summit as well...but my interest in grown men in tight trousers and and knee socks is fairly limited....so that bit of the show has never interested me .....

    Another thing I'm bothered by is that the halftime show features the Rolling Stones...The Rolling Stones are NOT American let alone from detroit. I would have much rather seen some Motown legends and maybe even The White Stripes. Even Kid Rock (who isn't technically from DETROIT, but instead a burb) or Eminem would have been better. It's ridiculous.

    come on, annie. this is the 40th superbowl. first one was in 1967, what band has been around since 1967?? there is only one, and that is the Stones. I think its only fitting. the superbowl is an american tradition, as are the stones, no one else can sell out stadiums, like those cats can. besides, who is better to resemble a wrinkly pig skin than mick jagger and keith richards respective faces??

    Big deal...book 'em for the 50th...chances are, they won't even have hung it up then. I don't think the Superbowl needs any help to sell out either...

    But I do agree that those cats have some WRINKLY faces! *cringes* hate to think what other stuff looks like.

    I guarantee Eminem, today, would sell more tickets than the Stones in '67.
