FiddySicks Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Seeing PG&E crumble and not shift the financial burden to their customers would probably be a lot better way to “heal” Californians right now.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I didn't watch the big game last night because the outcome was never in doubt and Patriots football is joyless.

verno Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 A neat little O/U l heard today, number of Super Bowls wins Tom Brady has left in him. The line is 1.5. I predict under. My primary feeling is Gronk will retire over the off season, eliminating a great over the middle threat for Brady. Your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wings Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I think Brady & Belichick want 7 so the Pats can pass the Steelers and stand alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 1.5? So they can win one more and still be under? Under. Took some incredible good fortune against the Chiefs to win even this one. Were it not for a bone-headed offsides penalty the Chiefs would've won that game. Tom Brady will be 42 when next season starts, which means in order to go over 1.5 he'll have to do so as a 43 year old, at the earliest. Did he look good last night? He did not. Time will get him eventually. Someone on another team will get him eventually. I think that happens sooner than he thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players tend to look better when Tom Brady is throwing to them, as opposed to... oh, IDK... Chase Daniel. Funny how that works.

Quillz Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 So the ratings were released, and this was the least watched Super Bowl in a decade, although it still had a very respectable 98 million viewers. I bet a lot of people stopped watching at halftime because they released it was going to be a slow, defensive battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Let's be honest: Tom Brady was almost a non-factor last night. He played fine, but not brilliant. Didn't even throw a touchdown. Granted, it was a slow defensive game so he didn't exactly need to be amazing, but as mentioned, he can't fight fate (i.e. Father Time). And I agree that if Gronk retires, the Patriots will still very much contend (it helps when they play in the worst division of all time), but I don't think will make the Bowl.

I don't know why people worry so much about the ratings unless they're TV execs or advertising people whose livelihoods depend on them. Also, the Steelers-Cardinals Super Bowl that was awesome was rated lower than this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care about ratings, I was just curious because my assumption was the very slow-paced nature of the game would have turned a lot of people off, especially give the past few bowls that were a lot faster-paced and higher scoring.

I honestly don’t think the game itself dictates the ratings that much. The overall interest in the matchup beforehand probably determines the bulk of your ratings in these cases. That’s why a matchup involving the Arizona Cardinals who went 9-7 (and are named the Arizona Cardinals) would do relatively poorly despite being an all-time classic Super Bowl.
