Super Bowl 2013 thoughts?

[kirbyboi 588]

Hey, everypony! Can't wait for the super bowl! Although, to be honest, I don't watch it for the game. I mainly watch it for the commercials. But anywho, what do you think will happen? Will the halftime show be good? Will we have another butchering of the National Anthem? Which team do you think will win? 

 

I'm not an avid sports fan, but I think that the singer will yet again butcher the National Anthem. Geez, sing it normally! As for the winning team, I won't make any predictions due to the fact that I barely watch/know about both teams. However, both the Ravens and the 49ers look like they have a chance! So, for all the sports bronies out there: What are your predictions? Doesn't have to be about the actual game, you can talk about the halftime show, fans, ect.

I DON'T CARE BECAUSE THE PACKERS AREN'T IN IT

 

I'm not going to be awake for the game, because I have to crash for a little while before going into work.

 

I'm sure the game will be decent and I hope the Ravens win.

[Envy 6,161]

Super Bowl...? That's today? Needless to say, I couldn't care less about the Super Bowl. I'm gong to be studying for my Music History exam on Monday instead. lol.

 

Which would be a requirement even if I did care.

[Cocodrillo 1,565]

I totally love it and I can't wait! It's like the most awesome event ever. I've been waiting whole year for it!

What's that Super Bowl again...?

[Zygen 6,066]

Eh I'm not a big sportsfan to be honest. So I don't really watch unless I am somewhat forced to by others.

Of course the superbowl isn't much different, and I will never go to it since its so expensive, even if this Superbowl is here in Louisiana I still have no plans to go .

 

I do know some people who'll be in the halftime show, maybe I'll watch that who knows.

 

Can't really care much about the game though.

[Spartan 433]

The packers aren't in it. so i really dont care. but my mom is a 49ers fan, so i guess ill root for them :/

 

but i think its going to be really close, but in the end. i think the Ravens will win it lol.

 

my plan:

 

Watch 1st half

do something during halftime, because Beyonce is awful (the NFL couldn't find ANYONE better?!)

Watch 2nd half

[Cupcake Ice Cream 436]

The packers aren't in it. so i really dont care.

You can't hear it but you're getting a slow 1980's applause for these comments

 

Been a Packers fan since I started watching football back in 89 or so

 

kudos

I honestly don't find the commercials enjoyable, nor do I enjoy football.  The halftime show will suck like they always do.  (This is all opinion, if you like it I'm not judging)

[Dragonflare 11]

Honestly, I'm an eagles fan, (please don't bug me about it) but in my opinion, ravens are the second best bird

(49ers are goin down!!!) so yeah.

[DashieVROOM 29]

Im just hoping for a good game since my patriots didnt make it :/ but right now its pretty giod but i want the 49ers to win lol. I dont like the Ravens for beating the Pats duri the AFC championship.

[Dragonflare 11]

I see your point. unfortunately, (for you) the ravens are dominating. good luck though I gotta say, I always kind of hated the patriots for beating the eagles the one time they actually got to the super bowl a couple years ago. i respect your opinion though. But i have one way the eagles can reclaim the chance of getting to the super bowl.

I haven't really watched football ever since Patriots vs. Giants. But I think,  I will check into this game Ravens vs. 49ers.

I think the Ravens got this in the bag.

[Marshmallow 1,137]

Power outage... I personally think that it'x hilarious. The game was kind of boring anyway, so that made it slightly more interesting

[Thaliel 116]

now who would've thought it would become that exciting after the Halftime and the outage, congrats to Baltimore and now I'm off to bed

[Freewave 1,145]

Congratulations to Rarity and her team. I have a feeling that Applejack is drinking lots of cider after the 49ers came back from that huge deficit but just could not make it the rest of the way. Ravens slipped by in the end.

 

 

[The-Master 1,176]

Nobody outside the US seems to care (me being one of them). In fact we were more exited about the Rugby Sevens, in which the US actually did quite well, but Canada did better.

[Betez 1,734]

Well, the Ravens won, which I think was a big surprise for most people. I honestly thought this superbowl was kind of eh. Nothing very exciting during the actual game happened. Hopefully Superbowl XLVIII will be better.

[Piodx 49]

Never understood what's the big deal about... ehh.. watching sports at all, please don't hate me! >.< 

 

It's just nothing important on my side, but i can see why people are so pumped about it (My sister literally forced me to watch it with her friends, i got impatient because of all the pauses the game made, seriously it can be desperating at times) Some parts of the games were exiting but most of it i was just... bored =U 

[PlunderSteed 1,252]

I went to a party at my friend's house, and it was a good time. The game started off a little wonky, but the half time show was good. That blackout...must have spawned more random humor than anything else in recent memory! And then the 49ers woke up and the game got good. My score prediction was 38-35 Ravens, and the actual final was pretty close.

[hawkflame 3,310]

Well, the Ravens won, which I think was a big surprise for most people. I honestly thought this superbowl was kind of eh. Nothing very exciting during the actual game happened. Hopefully Superbowl XLVIII will be better.

 

Nothing very exciting?  Other than the Niners nearly coming back from a 22 POINT DEFICIT?  (By the way, the Super Bowl record for a successful comeback is winning after a measly 10 point deficit)

 

What a game that was!  I was at work last night but they had the game on so I caught most of the important bits.  Both teams deserved to win.  The Niners were down by a ton but never gave up.  The Ravens ahd a pretty commanding first half and sealed the deal at the end of the game.  I wish I had the chance to sit down and watch the whole thing. 

 

I didn't really care who won (Jets fan here) I just wanted a good game, and that's what I got.

[HallowsEve 52]

I'm not a huge football fan.. well.. I'm not a fan at all. But unfortunately I live with a bunch of Ravens fans and a few Redskin fans. Every time the Ravens got ahead, the Redskin fans would cringe. Then when the 49ers started coming back, the Ravens fans were cringing. It was amusing. I dvred the event for the commercials. 

[TailsIsNotAlone 3,695]

I thought the 49ers would win this one comfortably, but it was another close one. I'm actually starting to miss those old blowout Super Bowls. xD

 

I was not rooting for the Ravens by any stretch of the imagination, but I respect the great effort they put in. The power outage totally shifted the momentum of the game, and the Niners nearly pulled off the the biggest comeback in SB history. That questionable absence of a holding call on 4th and Goal will stick in my mind. Bottom line, great win for the Ravens and the Niners have nothing to be ashamed of. Kaepernick was a rookie in an unimaginable situation, but he played lights out barring that one INT. That kid's got a bright future.

 

As usual the halftime show was an elaborate, overproduced nightmare. There's nothing special about Beyonce; she's just another pop star with a pretty face and nothing to say. I haven't seen one halftime show I actually liked except for U2 and Prince. The others have been "meh" or worse. Alicia Keys did okay with the national anthem, but like most pop stars, she overdid it instead of letting the beauty of the song speak for itself.

I was disappointed in most of the commercials.

Half time, I didn't care for, so I ended up changing channels to Mecum Auto Auction reruns.

As far as the game, I thought it was boring until the 49ers actually started playing. For most of the game I thought they didn't show up.

[RippedOffMattress 314]

I didn't give two shits about it at all. I hate sports. They're boring and a waste of time, ESPECIALLY Football. I actually did try to watch it to give Football another chance, but I couldn't get past shortly after the first touchdown.

 

I didn't even stick around for the commercials.

That was probably my favorite aspect of the game.  In theory, the blackout should have no impact on the game because both teams are equally effected.  But once play resumed, it was as if two different teams were suddenly playing each other. 

 

It's hard to believe that the biggest comeback for the win is only 10 points.  There have been plenty of NEAR comebacks with far more points scored by the trailing team.  This might be the record in that regard.
