The ads got replaced by propaganda and the halftime show became a ritual. Hard to care when you realize the spectacle is the point, not the game.

I don't know why you watched it in the first place. They couldn't even get the shape of the ball right.

I generally pay no attention, but just now Green Day played American Idiot in its entirety during the opening ceremony. I just wanted to see these guys, who should be in comfortable middle age, raising a middle finger to the media live on NBC. I can go do something else now.

it has changed a lot during my generation

Watching sports is beta cuck

I'm only watching it to spend time with my old man. Couldn't give two shits but I'll watch it with him while I still can.

What about Nascar and the track pack of Coors in the fridge?

I concur. But it'll hit different when Josh Allen gets up in there. tbh. 🦬 #GoBills

Agreed, there are so many things I would rather spend four hours doing.

It’s all so tiresome.

Two words: Bum Fights Ditch football, and get back to our roots as Americans.

I went to a super bowl, was fun

Bread and circus 🎪 🤡

When the game started to become tiresome, at least the ads were funny and creative - now even the ads are tiresome. Time for some reading (you can still just... read things)!

It’s the friends we made along the way.

Get your bread at the circus... Everything about it is designed to numb your senses and stop you from seeing things clearly.

its actually a pretty good game. amazing athletes. commercial suck. Bad Bunny will be terrible.

Benito Bowl

If only indoctrination wore off on everyone… It’s sad watching so many so entranced by circus.

ending forever wars can take a back seat. i can’t wait until bitcoin upgrades the sports industry.

Oh, was there a game today?

I agree and the NFL has sold out to gambling and entertainment. Complete waste of time.

But it's clearly on your mind.

Politics ruined the NFL for me many years ago. At one time it was my break from the crazy going on in the world. But now not so much.

Gather some friends, make elite snacks, drink a bunch of beers and bet pushups on different scenarios throughout the game. You’ll enjoy the fuck out of it

We didn’t watch it here either. I did tune into the TPUSA alternate half-time show, though. The audio feed on the Rumble stream sounded like 16k mono. YouTube’s audio feed was much better.

It used to celebrate americana and the athletic prowess of a formidable team. Now, it is a gay pride parade sandwiched by two halves of a neutered penalty sport.

I am German. Soccer is the nation's religion, although it is pay TV and state TV doesn't even bother to get the rights with the money we are forced to pay for public TV every month. I haven't watched since.... South Africa world cup, I guess. Spectecal and distraction for the sleeping sheep h...

That half time show was….. well I’m not sure what it was.

Some people may argue that ‘American Culture’ is an oxymoron 🤣

Television is so outdated

We are unplugged

I don’t watch it but this halftime show had a great message behind which I watched online after.

You better educate the Brits as at least one from my household stayed up to watch.

I loved the Kendrick Lamar halftime show. This one I didn’t care for, but I understand it wasn’t really for me and that’s totally fine.

Can't get head around why any white American would watch it anymore
