Superbowl LIX

[Vegas Claret]

I’ve had throat operations less painful than that half time ‘show’.

I usually give people the benefit of the doubt because it's nigh on impossible for the sound engineers to make it sound good for both in the stadium and the TV.............but that was dreadful. It's a toss up between Kendrick Lamar and the Chiefs for the worst thing I've seen in the last hour

That was truly dreadful.

A 77 year old Dolly Parton gave a more entertaining performance in 2023 for the Thanksgiving game halftime show.

Mahomes sacked twice more already in the second half. Remarkable performance by the Eagles defense.

[claret wizard]

No change in pattern of play here. 1st down, 2 sacks, 3 and out. That has doubled the Chiefs 1st down tally though.

Given up with commentary as it looks like game over. If anyone wants a bit of madness this late night then come join the party with Marc:

And that’s a wrap, 34 : 0 with 2 mins left in 3rd.

Great performance from Philly

[Vegas Claret]

I'm not sure Chiefs have even been second best

[Cajun]

Well as I predicted earlier, it's partly time in the streets in the section of NW Philly where I live. Constant barrage of fireworks still going off, people dancing and singing in the street, and a totally dominant display from the Eagles to crush the Chiefs. I suspect a lot of people will not be turning up for work tomorrow

[CharlieinNewMexico]

Happy to shut Tom Brady up who was still well into the fourth quarter telling us how great “Patrick” is and what a legacy the Chiefs have. STFU and show some respect to the Eagles who outclassed and out coached them. Were expected to just run the ball but opened it up and sacked Mahomes regularly without even blitzing.

[Tricky Trevor]

Yes, it translates to 61 with L=50, I = 1 and X =10. If you add them all together you get the number so 50+1+10 = 61

You caught a few there DA.

For those with any interest an NFL game has been scheduled for Dublin, Croke Park in the fall.
Steelers designated home team. Opposition unknown but down to 1 of 5.

I would say at least €100 a ticket TT, and if you want to stay in Dublin for the night a second mortgage would be a very good idea .

I was in Dublin after Christmas and the hotel prices were fine. Manchester and London certainly more expensive.

Correct but it should be an early afternoon ko, fingers crossed, to tie in with USA viewing.
Most Wembley and Tottenham games, if not all, are.
It’s Limerick Junction on the free travel pass for us. If I can get tickets.

[AfloatinClaret]

I would say at least €100 a ticket TT...

So a bargain compared to last weekend's rugby international.

[IanMcL]

Happened to stumbled on the early play, so watched yo see how it went. All the pre-match was about 3 times Chiefs and their QB. All the match was Philadelphia and their achievements.

40 7 when I went to bed. Chiefs QB plays were brilliantly countered. The Philadelphia QB landed everything.

[Tricky Trevor]

I’m so pleased Chiefs went down. They were never all that all season. 12 wins by less than 7 points and 12 wins through last possession meant they weren’t the team that had dominated the previous 2 years concluding with Superbowl titles. Will Kelce and Andy Reid stick around?
Their era could be done. Eagles looked tremendous, Bills will improve, Daniels needs players but Commanders will do everything to help him.
All in all a year to look forward to.

And one now in Australia, rumoured rams v chargers.
