I'm baffled as to why any CB wouldn't be jumping that route - the most obvious pass possible.

Ok, that coverage was even worse. There are 6 seconds left, how are you giving him that throw?

So freaking basic. They can't throw the fade because the half is over if it's incomplete. And NE took a timeout to talk it over as well

I can't believe New England got pushed down the field that easily at the end of the half. That entire series was disturbing.

How can I seem even whiter?

Lets bring out Missy Elliott, and have me awkwardly interact with her.

When was the last time Missy Elliot even made a song? This was a song back when I was in high school 15 years ago.

Yeah, honestly without researching if they've done a song together that I missed... this seems like an out-of-nowhere featured spot.

At least she ended on a high note. The middle was not very memorable.

Did anyone take the prop bet on Lenny Kravitz showing more cleavage than Katy Perry?

Who watches the half time , that's for the ladies.


I was in Vegas for a SB party and went down to the casino during the most controversial HT ever, came back, watched the whole game and didn't find out until way later the next day about the JJ nipple or whatever.


Guess to each their own.

Which is why things like the NE ineligible receiver thing can be so effective.

How do you find a receiver like that off the street at this point of the season?

Wilson should have kept it on 3rd down, he probably scores.

Such a damn shame that Perry got a TD in that Super Bowl and not Payton.

They found him in February, but kept him hidden as their secret weapon for the Super Bowl.

Super Bowl halftime show planning meeting:

"OK, so, Katy, you're going to ride in on a big ass lion. Then you're going to dance with some dudes who look like the Oakland Raiders performing Alice in Wonderland. It's going to be kinda loud, so it might awaken Lenny Kravitz from his slumber, and you'll have to sing with him for two and a half minutes until he falls asleep again. Then Missy Elliott for some reason. We have some shark and beach ball costumes lying around. Somebody should wear those so we get our money's worth. Then we're going to blast you into orbit. And could you be naked while doing this? Wait, THAT'S the part you object to?"

I guess I'm cheering for the Seadonkeys. I hate the Pats that much. I'm not sure what's going to be worse, the back to back hype or the Belli iz a god hype.

I had never heard of that, but I totally see what you're talking about. I have been dared to get one of those shark costumes and wear it to work. So now I'm shopping online for one.

Short crossing routes are not going to make up a 10 or deficit agains this defense.
