I'm not a fan of football at all, but I do look forward for the half-time, the ads and the memes that would result from those (that will be funny until they've been shared and exploited to death).

100-0 Florida Panthers vs Denver Broncos.

But yeah I'm gonna try to find a way to watch the game. Gonna be fun. I think Carolina has a chance.

Also, the commercials.

Peyton Manning seems to be too old now...
And where is that pic from?

It's from Radio-Canada (French version of CBC). It was quite funny that they got the Panthers logo wrong considering that Canada is hockey country.

Well, the Panthers lost 24-10

(I blame it on all those fumbles and penalties)

u/Dudeman313 February 08, 2016, 04:14:34 AM

We won! Go Raiders!
If you want to understand my inside joke, Google "blue raiders" and look at our logo.

For those who are too lazy to do so, the Broncos won.

I live in Colorado. Woot woot.

Horseheads, NY. Hooray.

Aw, it was a good game though. I slept through the first part, though, and missed the half-time >.<

u/Dudeman313 February 08, 2016, 05:07:33 AM

I just watched the score updates on Google.

u/Yuki February 08, 2016, 05:27:48 AM

I don't have any channel that showed the game, and I missed the half-time too, oh well... All the web players I tried were c anyway, I'll just watch the interesting parts on YouTube or whatever later.

u/Dream of Omnimaga February 08, 2016, 05:29:25 AM

Apparently, you could watch it via an app on Xbox Live, but I was too tired to look for it. I found a way to watch it elsewhere, though.

Haha. The halftime was pretty good, though the game was kinda boring. Not much action.

My main gripe about football is that each play only lasts a few seconds before stoppage. In hockey, at least a play can last over a minute. Baseball has the same issue as football, although for some reasons I am more into it than football. Then there is soccer, where time continues while the game is stopped, which sucks if they stop for too long. But baseball and football can both have some nice action.

Also in hockey one bad part is that if one team leads by 3 points in the 3rd period, then that team is almost guaranteed to win unless it's the Quebec Remparts or Winnipeg Jets (they tend to blow leads quite often). In soccer it's even worse because there are fewer shots on goal. I don't know about football, but in baseball a 8-2 game can quickly turn into a 8-10 game.

I should try to go to a R&O college football game at one point with @Juju. But the issue is the stadium has zero weather protection so it sucks if you spend $30 on tickets and it rains. Plus out of the 19K capacity, 7000 places are standing room >.<
