So who is watching the Superbowl this Sunday between the New York Giants and New England Patriots.
Are there any fans of teams, players old or new on CUK?
I'll be watching, I have done for as long as it has been televised in the UK. (Before that the only live NFL we could get was picking up the American Armed Forces Radio broadcasting to their troops based in Germany but that was medium-wave and the signal was no good at the time of day the Superbowl is played.)
Best times were back in the nineties when the publican at my local pub was a fan and would lock the front door, put the game on the TV and keep serving beer.
In the time zone that I am in now I will be watching the game on a Monday afternoon and that feels totally wrong (but I'll still do it).
I love all these people who suddenly become American Football fans when the superbull is on. Yeah I want to watch a bunch of cowards with more Armour than a soldier on the front line in Afghanistan, with adverts every 6 seconds.

Oh, and I am a long standing Patriots fan too.
Having to listen on a radio thank you the 90,s are over and technology has come a bit more advanced since then
Watching on a Monday afternoon i don't know how you are going to keep away from not knowing the score!
A long standing Patriots fan well the question i must ask is will Gronk be healthy for the game and will Chad Ochocinco score the winning TD
