    I watched what I assume was the start (around midnight?), didn't know what was going on (a big fuss was made about throwing a ball?) and after a lot of stops and starts involving a ball being thrown like that, it stopped for longer, perhaps for a break. I switched channels while commentators bulltuliped at that point and didn't switch back.

    Oh c'mon, c'mon of course they will.

    Planning to watch it and I don't mind who wins as long as it's a good game.

    Gronk was on the 'limited participation' list for practice yesterday so I doubt he will play the whole game.

    As for Chad - it wouldn't feel like a victory if an ex-Bungle scored the winning points.
    Just having Gronk on the pitch will be a big advantage even if he is limited they have to cover him at least.

    I don't think Chad will get much game time but then again it the Superbowl and unlikey stars can emerge I just cant wait for the game

    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).

    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!

    Are there any fans of teams, players old or new on CUK?
