colinian Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Based on their records Pittsburgh should have won, and they didn't. I didn't care one way or the other (as a Niners and Raiders fan -- talk about self-flagellation!) but it was a good game to watch. Maybe as a Pittsburgh fan it wasn't so great, but it did have all of the action and errors and successes and misses and excitement that a Super Bowl game should have. It was a great matchup. I thought all of the ads were way over-hyped. The Little Darth Vader ad was cute, a couple of the Doritos ads (made by fans) were good and funny, the Mini "cram it in the boot" ad was funny but sort of stupid, and the Eminem ad for Chrysler was okay but a bit too rah-rah. The rest were yawners or just outright sucked. Colin Quote Link to comment
Bruin Fisher Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Er... is everyone here suddenly speaking a different language? I haven't understood a word of this! Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 The only thing you need to understand, Bruin, is the Green Bay got 21 points off three turnovers against a team that rarely turns the ball over, and Pittsburgh, a team that lives off QB pressures and sacks, only got to Rodgers once. Therein the game was decided. C Quote Link to comment

A turnover is a sweet pastry, usually filled with stewed apple or fresh cream, or, ideally, both. Don't understand how one of those helps decide a game (what game? cards?) I'm lost.

The Steelers offensive line must have gobbled up a few too many turnovers, from the way they played. Quote Link to comment

Bruin Fisher Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Now cricket. There's a game. Another sport I have no idea what's going on................... I confess to being a disgrace to my culture. I've never understood cricket, which was disastrous during the brief period when I travelled with my school's team as scorer... The batsman goes out when he's in, until he's out, and when he's out he goes back in again and the next batsman goes out because he's in. Until he's out, and the process repeats for the whole innings. The game consists of two innings each team, I think, and I don't think cricket involves outings at all unless, of course, any of the players are gay, which, like in all premier sports, is inconceivable.
