Super Bowl 2015
 
Its that time of year again, now that Boiler has had 12 months to lick his wounds.

Anyone see the games yesterday? That Seattle game has to be the best game of football I have seen. The Seahawks are known for leaving it late, but that was late even by their standards. So the Seahawks showed grit and determination and that they can never be counted out and New England blew away their fourth seed opposition.

Who do you think will win, or want to won?

I am still raging about the GB game. That was the biggest choke I've seen in countless years! As a 9ers fan, I do not like the Seahawks, and I despise Richard Sherman! I'm a big Patriot fan for 2 weeks, and to me, they've looked the stronger team this season.

I was so pessimistic by the middle of the game that I went around the house fixing stuff for a while, just listening. After the Seahawks finally scored, I sat down to watch the rest since I figured they had pulled their fingers out at last. That was pure entertainment, repeatedly amazing plays leading up to the last touchdown.

I just rewatched highlights, there were so many important plays, that all had to work out for the win to come. The fake goal move, those extra points were needed. The onside kick. The two pointer. And one I really only noticed on second viewing. Luke Wilson being pulled down over the 10 yard line for a first down with 1:49 to go. To set up the touchdown to take the lead.

You missed the biggest one. The luck of winning the toss, so they got first play in extra time. ;)

As with bountygate a couple of years ago, it's probably one of those things that everyone does, nobody admits to, and one person was unlucky enough to be caught.

Except Rodgers admitted to over inflating for the Packers and that doesn't seem to have been a issue...

All a bit daft...especially as the refs are handling the balls, ooh errr, all the time, so they should have noticed a significant drop in pressure.

I have no doubt. I didn't know until yesterday that each team supplies their own balls to play offense with. I can't believe that! The balls are all checked a couple of hours before hand, but after that, anything can happen. I'm amazed the NFL don't supply the balls.
