Super Bowl Open Thread

Here's your MGoBlog Official Rooting Guide:

.

.

  New York Giants
New England Patriots
MVP Candidates David Baas and Mario Manningham, plus RBs coach Jerald Ingram and Asst. (to the) Linebackers coach Jim Herrmann Tom Brady and Zoltan Mesko, plus Mallett if you count him.
Known Buckeye Associates Jake Ballard (TE) and Jim Cordle (backup to Baas) DL Coach Pepper Johnson (played under Earl Bruce).
Spartans Charitably Employed Greg Jones (backup MLB) and Devin Thomas (3rd string WR) Brian Hoyer, but I don't count this against them because I find a Spartan as manservant to both Brady and Zoltan (srsly: he's listed as the Space Emperor's backup as PK holder!) totally acceptable.
Suspected Domer Sympathizers Justin Tuck (starting SDE) Sergio Brown, a 3rd string safety
Other known affiliations The original Mara (current owner's grandpa) bought and disbanded the Detroit Wolverines (NFL) in 1929 just so he could have Benny Friedman Kirk Ferentz, Nick Saban, and Charlie Weiss all served as asst. coaches under Belicheck at one time. OC Bill O'Brien will become Penn State's new Head Zook after game.

Sorry to have taken over M-Wolverine's thread. I planned to have this go up at 5:30 and he beat me to it. Here's his original post:

Less than an hour away.  Should be a good game. The commercials. The halftime show featuring someone steering her kid to Michigan.  Brady, Zoltan and Mallett vs. Manningham, Baas and Herrmann. I'll be rooting for Brady to win his fourth, and get to the arguably greatest player/QB of all time level, so we can say THAT GUY came from Michigan. (And my general stance of rooting against Mannings). But if you're a diehard Giants fan, no problem.  Just remember your team has twice as many Spartans as the Pats. ;-)  Enjoy the game, the food, the family, friends, and fun!

(Blogger alias: "Misopogon") This team is under construction. We thank you for your patience.

Maybe Mario learned how to make a pipe out of an apple when he was still in high school.  If this is the case, I fully understand this move.

Otherwise it is still annoying as fuck.  I'd prefer "Fielding Yost's University of Michigan" or some other nonsense over not even mentioning the school at all.

It is spelled HOKEAMANIA.  Our coach is an ass-kicking American citizen, not one of the Beatles, for Christ's sake!

However, in reading your reply, highly embarrassed to notice I typo'ed emphatically above.  Too late to correct now. 

Of course I'm sure Baas was also showing empathy for those of us who were pissed at Mario, hence his emphatic statement.

In 1998 the NFL implemented a rule stating that tinted visors are banned from players' facemasks except for medical need. The NCAA implemented a similar rule in 2009.

That's a pretty horrible grounding call.  He threw the ball deep, and it looked like he thought Welker was going deep and out.  Yeah, it probably was a throw-away, but when he let the ball go it definitely looked like someone was in the vicinity.

That's a dumb rule.  So what are you supposed to do in that situation?  Just take the sack for the safety anyway?  Or throw to the sideline?

Go Blue!  Always!

Throw it near a receiver, or get outside the tackle box so you can throw it away.

I get why the rule exists, but that throw looked as "legit" as others I've seen toward the sideline they didn't call.  Just a dumb call.

It's weird that he didn't just throw it towards the sidelines and out of bounds.

Yes, Brady was throwing it away, but that throw was not any different than a Joe Bauserman pass. I didn't see Bauserman  get flagged constantly for intentional grounding.

The college kids above me are LOVING this game so far, which makes me laugh because they sure weren't whoofing up the team when they are 7-7.

I didn't mind the Chevy apocalypse ad, but that GoDaddy one is just dumb despite having an incredibly attractive women involved.

That doesn't look anything like The Lorax. It was the character but not the story. I disapprove of Dr. Seuss movies that aren't the animated ones from my childhood.

I know right! I hit on a $100 board. So pissed when I found out I had 9-0, originally. $2500 though! How lucky right?
