The hype is always insane but I kind of enjoy the pageantry 😂

Watching. Always like to see the halftime show. Thought Kendrik Lamar was good.

Beebee30 · 10/02/2025 01:46

Half time show wasn’t to my taste. Maybe I’m getting old but I could barely make out what he was saying, bar turning someone’s tv off

evtheria · 10/02/2025 01:49

Huge Kendrick Lamar fan, and I wasn't disappointed - a calculated, detail-orientated performance, very him, but perhaps kinda wasted on a general audience who isn't there to see him, he's quite intense. Was that Serena Williams dancing in it towards the end, too? Anyway this is where I switch off, lol, will find out the game winners tomorrow (not supporting anyone, tbf).

Interested in this thread?

I thought that was Serena Williams but I couldn’t work out why she was there!

Who were the 2 guests, the woman in red singing and the man that just stood at his side?

frenchonionsnoop · 10/02/2025 01:51

@evtheria @YellowDaffodilRedTulip it was Serena! Kendrick Lamar is from Compton, California, as is she!

DH says it’s something like 17 million according to Talk Sport

@GoBucs 🤔

Tampa Bay fan?

The woman in red was SZA, I don’t know who the guy was!

I hoped it was her, I think Drake had been a bit creepy with her years back so it would make sense Kendrick brought her up (or she asked) haha.

Red: SZA, a singer who headlined last Glasto. Guy: producer Mustard (you hear everyone telling MUSTAAAAARD because of him).

Thanks. Neither are my kind of music but I thought the production and choreography was really good.

Tampa Bay fan?

Yep! Pre-Brady as well, so a ‘proper’ fan

It's almost time

I'm a drake fan so I'm watching in a dispassionate, unaffected way

Sucks to be a Drake fan these days 😂 I feel bad for you!

AngeloMysterioso · 10/02/2025 02:00

EconomyClassRockstar · 10/02/2025 00:15

Yes. I predict that the Eagles will be winning all the way though and then Mahomes will do something spectacular in the last few seconds and the Chiefs will win. And everyone will pretend they're really surprised and it's not a fix.

Just throwing it out there in case my theory works out!

Will have to be really bloody spectacular the way this is going!

GoBucs · 10/02/2025 02:02

Saquon Barkley is something else!

BlankTimes · 10/02/2025 02:04

Biggest question chez Blank is will the guys in the commentary box keep their chairs throughout the second half. 😂

Mumtobabyhavoc · 10/02/2025 02:13

It's still 27 to sweet piss all. 🤣

Make that 34-0. Might call it a day at the end of the 3rd quarter if it stays the same. Just remembered I have children who won’t care that I was up late watching TV when they wake up for breakfast.

SophieGee · 10/02/2025 02:24

I have tried to watch it a few times, but personally I cannot stand the pageantry and stop-start of it. Plus adverts here. It also should be called Hand Egg.

I do appreciate many people love the pageantry though but glad I am not alone with the irritation at stop start.

CottonCandyLand · 10/02/2025 02:25

DH also reckons it’s fixed in the Eagle’s favour.

Mumtobabyhavoc · 10/02/2025 02:27

34-6 now. Tom Brady: there's a lot of football left. 😆

I shouldn’t have said anything

CraftyYankee · 10/02/2025 02:34

Eagles fan here, couldn't sleep so back watching again. No lead is comfortable against Mahomes 😳

WhichOneIsPosher · 10/02/2025 02:39

Am watching too, I'm a Vikings fan but rooting for the Eagles. I love an underdog (hence why I support Vikings!)

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 09/02/2025 23:36

Do the Americans have tomorrow off of work?

No, but I can see why you’d ask!

Teapot13 · 10/02/2025 02:41

Next Monday is President’s Day. (Bank holiday)

This is nuts! It will be interesting if/how the chiefs come back in the second half. I was expecting it to be much closer than this.

I also thought it would be much closer! We are about an hour behind where the game really is right now. My biggest disappointment was the Bud commercial. A total let-down. Actually, there have been very few(none) that I will remember the next day.
