Maybe he was only there so he didn't get fined. |
Very funny. March's line is "I'm only here so I don't get fined," when he has to be interviewed properly for 5 mins.
I had no horse in the race so frankly I didn't care. Just wanted to watch a fun final.
I feel that Seattle was too full of themselves. Good teams (Brady with 4 wins now, Super Bowls), they take care of business. Tough neighborhood. [Post edited 2 Feb 2015 20:26]

ESPN poll, would Hawks' Marshawn Lynch have scored a TD if given the chance from the 1 yard line Three Times? 93 per cent say yes. Should have given him the ball and see what happens. Clearly the Seahawks coach Pete Carroll went mental with a pass from the 1 yard line.
The shark in the halftime show featuring Katy Perry said in the post-game interview, to Carroll, "Bro, you shoulda run that."
Pats Rookie Malcolm Butler who grabbed that last minute interception. Most likely to never have to buy his own drinks in Boston again.-- Butler, from pitifully small West Alabama. I reckon he will be forever famous.

Not going to add a separate thread, I think we have it all covered here, including reactions and such if there are more.
But Well done Sarboy!
And another great season, as Mick did win the League, 2nd,.. er, 3rd time now?
If only Sar would not every season miss a week. But maybe that's the point. Mfb takes care of business parking the bus during the season and Sar is more post-season based. Irony alert.
Thanks all for taking part, everyone. See you late August | |
