Who isn't watching the Super Bowl?

JohnnyMosrite Joined: Jun 14, 2006 Posts: 892 New York City area	Posted on Feb 06 2017 04:11 PM I didn't watch at all. I never quite understood all the hoopla over the dumb ball games in this country- football in particular. Guys slamming into each other to get some lopsided pigskin "ball" from one end of a field to another; or another one thru some dopey basket or hitting another ball with a bat and then running around in a circle stepping on some magical square pads on the ground along the way. I've tried - but frankly - it all just bores the hell out of me. So no - I didn't watch the dumb football game - or any other "Super(toilet) Bowl game in previous years. Last I looked, it's a free country. To those who dote on this stuff, more power to you. I'll work on my wheels or play my guitar. Isn't America a great country? J Mo' Top

Admittedly the guy out of shot on the synth workstation makes most of the pop sounds. She knows how to rock. Top

websurfer Joined: May 14, 2007 Posts: 1753	Posted on Feb 08 2017 01:39 PM I was so grateful she didn't make any overt political statement, that I would have been fine with anything she did. As it is, what impressed me most was her bravery to be suspended and lowered hundreds of feet attached by two cables. The game itself was one for the ages. Top
stratdancer Joined: Dec 11, 2013 Posts: 2533 Akron, Ohio	Posted on Feb 08 2017 02:09 PM I've boycotted every 1/2 X show since it was learned that Robin Trower would never perform hits from Bridge of Sighs during one of the games. I'm sure all of you feel the same. I can't be alone on this. You do know he plays a strat right?
