[Guest TheStylishKidInTheRiot]

Is anyone going to watch the Superbowl game tonight featuring the New England Patriots going for a perfect unbeaten season and the underdogs Eli Mannings New York Giants?

Just watched the Giants score to go ahead and win it all. Don't know how things are over there, but here in the States it'll be surprising how many NY Giants fans will come out of the woodwork. .

Damn bandwagon.

"In one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history, New York shattered New England's unbeaten season 17-14 Sunday night as Manning hit Plaxico Burress on a 13-yard fade with 35 seconds left. It was the Giants' 11th straight victory on the road and the first time the Patriots tasted defeat in more than a year."

So they went unbeaten through the whole season, won every match, lost the superbowl and won fuck all. Bet they were well chuffed. Don't they at least get a trophy for coming top? lol its like Rugby in a way. Come top and still have to play the 2nd team for the title, the most rediculous rule of all time. There should be a seperate trophy for the one off game at the end. Funny tho. Thank fuck football aint like that.

Ollie I'm pretty sure it's a knockout competition starting with a group stage not a league with a final.

Elliott,you're spot-on.The NFL is America's equivalent of the Champions League(regarding format).I was unaware of this until someone explained to me.

I still can't stand American Football.Too much stop start,Ad breaks, camera's panning in on people making cunts of themselves just to get on TV.I know what Andy Warhol once said,but some people really do take the piss.

If running like a pansy dressed from head to toe in padding that could stop a nuclear warhead catching a piece of rubber which mocks the very idea of a rugby ball whilst attempting the rape the opposition in a huge doggy pile is considered a sport, then American Football is possibly the best sport in the world.

"A man's game" - bollocks. If they played it without the padding it might make them look slightly more intimidating. Try playing rugby you puffs.

Rant over.

God, these are awesome reactions!

I don't mind "our" (very loose) football.. prefer football like you guys and gals know it, and hockey.

I love this board.
