Will you watch the Super Bowl?

thomamon · 02-05-2006, 03:21 PM

OK, of course we are all die hard baseball fans here. Just wondering how many will actually watch the Super Bowl?

reds1 · 02-05-2006, 03:28 PM

Yes, I'll be watching it, but only because I've been invited somewhere to see it with friends.

Not a diehard baseball fan just like sims and this msg board. Actually dont like to watch baseball anymore.

DiMaggio5CF · 02-05-2006, 03:34 PM

Of course I will. I'm pretty sure it's against the law not to.

Similar for me. I like baseball, just not so much the options available to me in the past 5-10 years as Major League Baseball has slowly gone downhill (IMO, obviously). That being said.. as far as spectating goes.. I'd pick NFL football over baseball every single time. I'd watch a 49ers/Jets game before a World Series game 7.

Oh, and yes I'll watch the Super Bowl. =D

Unless it's the Mets, I'll watch a NFL regular season game over a MLB playoff game.
Baseball simulation games on a PC, on the other hand...

I'll watch football on TV and baseball in person, but rarely the other way around.

thomamon · 02-05-2006, 04:21 PM

The only reason I'll pay any attention to it is to check the box pool I'm in.

blgoblue2 · 02-05-2006, 04:22 PM

duh, only because its in detroit

SanDiegoPadres19 · 02-05-2006, 04:49 PM

I doubt I will be watching. Too much work/homework due tomorrow.

Same here, but that's what commercials are for.

molarmite · 02-05-2006, 05:16 PM

I'll watch parts of it, but certainly not the whole thing. I'll also watch the halftime show to check up on any "wardrobe malfunctions."

Obviousley this is the first time in 3 years I don't care about the winner of the Superbowl, but of course I'll still watch. I am clad in my Superbowl XXXVI shirt (Pats vs. Rams) because I hope the game is enjoyable.

I have two lady friends who are going to the movies, but they'll be here around 10 for the finsih.

Don't want to miss a glimpse of Mick Jagger's nipple?

Don't get your hopes up. The 5 second tape delay will prevent that.

Jestor · 02-05-2006, 06:04 PM

I'll be watching it with the brothers here in the house, unless I feel antisocial; then I'll just watch it here in the room.

The Professor · 02-05-2006, 06:14 PM

I'm in the minority.

Of course I'll watch the Super Bowl, I always do. I do like football.

That said, I welcome all things baseball over the NFL. I suppose I consider them even on television, but since I usually just listen to the radio broadcast anyway (for MLB)...it is really no contest. Give me a cold brew and good reception on the radio (or internet) and the summer game wins every time.
