Journal by fliptop

Since last night's SuperBowl won't be a story you'll see on SN, I figured if anyone wanted to discuss it I'd start this journal entry.

I don't particularly care for football anymore, beyond watching local high school (my youngest is a senior). In fact I have not seen a single NFL play for the past 2 years except for the SuperBowl. My buddy has a party every year so I go and bring wings.

Last night's game was a great game, even if the finish was kind of an immediate letdown. However, I told my buddies the last minute of that game will be scrutinized very closely for a long time and we may never know if it was dumb luck or pure genius.

Did Belichick not call a time out at w/ 50 seconds to go w/ the intention of luring the Seahawks into making a mistake?

    Honestly, I think the sport is rigged

    How could that be pulled off w/o anyone outside the group doing the rigging finding out?

    Someone always talks.

    It just seems suspicious that an awful lot of recent NFL games have been upsets and/or other last-minute comebacks

    So they're trying to make the NFL more like the NHL?
