NFL (no haters)

Looks like a few injuries, not sure if they'll make it back for 2nd half and could make things interesting for steelers.

How much do the Black Eyed Peas suck? They had about one good track in their whole career.

Jesus this is fking painful. Clever and expensive (I'll bet!) stage show but what tuneless drivel!

I've been watching the BBC version and the comments they made earlier about the playing surface and injuries are a bit worrying.

The neon light bit was cool, but the bringing out Slash and murdering Sweet Child o' Mine was awful. Now they're just shouting and doing some crappy auto-tune with usher.

Style over substance! Very effective light show/choreography but what about music too?

It's never been about the music, Janet jackson/Timberlake, then they rolled out springsteen one year for it - he's completely past it.

I'm now watching on BBC, hope I don't miss out anything but the guy on sky sports irritates me with his constant "it's an 11 point ball game" etc. and constantly calling it a ball game.

They were outkast-lite about 10 years ago with where is the love et al, but have been absolute autotuned pap since then.

Freakishly they are I think more or less the largest band in the world right now. They sell really well all over the world.

Doesn't stop them from being st though. Quite how they were still so out of tune when using a vocoder is beyond me.

I was just looking back through the list of previous Super Bowl halftime shows, they've mostly been dross, but The Blues Brothers did one, and I bet that was quite good.

Black Eyed peas just throw in too many gimmicks and that Fergie just shouts a lot. Here's a clip someone sent me. MJ at the bowl

Close game too

[g4ry13]

Over, pretty close at the end of it.

A good game, good job that was the last game as both teams beat the hell out of each other.

I won't be seeking out a Black eye pee album any time soon.

For those Football fans still here, some amazing throws;

Pretty amazing accuracy there!

Thought I'd bump this as the new season is next week. Cant wait

[Pique]

You might be waiting a while... No TV deals have been announced for the UK yet apart from SNF on C4 so unless you have gamepass there is no way yet to watch the games over here!

[Matt..]

Is it not on Sky Sports?

I am tempted by GamePass, but everything after the regular season is replays only isn't it? Have any of you tried GamePass? What's it like?

?? Why wait? The games are going ahead regardless if a UK channel has TV rights or not. Not sure what your comment means?

[Pique]

Of course the games will be going ahead - just not on UK TV at the moment!

[Matt..]

Are any of you going to the game in London? More tickets are released on the 10th September.

I can't imagine it's too similar to games in the US, but it is somewhat cheaper to attend
