I was a little disappointed in the halftime show.  Thought Katy was over-dressed the whole time.

And I completely missed the East-West Bowl Pro Edition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDp-ABzpRX8

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I know it is hard Tim, but try to show a little class after your team wins.

So a couple good friends of ours have bandwagoned with the Patriots for a few years now.  They are bombarding Facebook with all sorts of self-congratulatory crap (they even use "we").  What is it with Patriots and Steelers fans where they feel like their team winning the Super Bowl is a personal accomplishment.

Come to think of it, they are also Puerto Rican :hmm:

Good.  Screw the NFL and its $25,000 seats.

:angry:

But yeah in a lot of situations, acting like you belong there is enough to get by.  It's still a roll of the dice, as you're just as likely to walk by some security busybody who asks to see your credential or wristband even though you've already walked by & showed him ten times.

QuoteThe game-worn Johnny Unitas jersey that was added at the last second to a Super Bowl week auction in Phoenix, Ariz. sold for just over $103,500, according to Hunt Auctions.

The Unitas jersey, dated to the 1967 Baltimore Colts season, was a family heirloom given to a local family by then-Colts equipment manager Fred Schubach at Memorial Stadium.

The auctioneer said ahead of the event, which ended Monday, that Unitas' game-worn merchandise is rare, and that the expected range of the jersey was between $50,000 and $100,000. This particular item was made more valuable by a team repair on the front.

Other high-fetching items at the auction included over $200,000 in memorabilia from former All-Pro quarterback Randall Cunningham, and a Jim Brown game-worn Cleveland Browns uniform, which sold for $57,500.

Of more recent memorabilia, a game worn Aaron Rodgers jersey sold for $20,125, and a game-worn J.J. Watt uniform was sold for $14,950. Rodgers was the 2014 NFL Most Valuable Player, while Watt was the league's first ever unanimous Defensive Player of the Year.

What I find shocking isn't the Unitas jersey went for over $103K, but the Jim Brown jersey only went for $57,500.  Unitas was the best quarterback to ever play the game, but Jim Brown was arguably the best player to ever play the game.  Have the Browns lost that much sports credibility for being in the basement for so long?   :(

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Browns fans spent all their money buying their new QB of the month's jersey.

Also I wonder how much Namath's fur coat would go for.  He sure was one cool dude.
