    I am very very very happy right now.

    I am also deeply apprehensive, because the last time one of my teams won it all was 2016, and the karmic backlash on that was apocalyptic and world-spanning.

    Yeah if the price for Cavaliers and the Cubs was Trump I'd like a refund.

    My prediction for this game is that at least half of the times Rodgers throws in Sherman's direction will be when they have the 49ers offsides

    Hail to the Chefs. Hope they get Reid a ring.

    can you feel the struggle within?

    Hard to root for the chiefs when they have hill on their roster.

    I probably just won’t watch the super bowl again.

    I don't want to have to root against Andy Reid. The one year SF had to actually not be shit.

    Is any team clean in that sense of not having a Bosa or Hill type person on their roster or staff?

    Well this game also looks over. Seems like we’re going to have really bad championship games after better weeks previously.

    Yawn.

    Sorry Knight. 49ers in the Superbowl with no Patriots is the best possible outcome for any SB matchup. It would only be better if the 49ers won.

    I watched less NFL this year than I ever have and if it weren't for following this thread and twitter, that would have been 0 reason to follow any of it. I agree completely with you on the second part, right now I can't commit to even giving them the chance of the first part though

    "Terrible people keep winning" isn't really a lesson we need to hear more of these days, but we'll keep hearing it I guess?

    What two teams would be okay to see then in a Superbowl? I am legit asking because I can't think of one that doesn't have at least one scummy person involved.

    And before you answer this question, ask yourself where that team's jerseys are manufactured, and under what conditions that company's employees work/live/exist

    Okay so the "everything is actually awful" gotcha is tiring. We know everything is awful and it doesn't make participating in more awful things better

    ALSO we generally don't have a national post-sale celebration for commercial products

    Also also we don't usually spend four hours listening to commentary talking up commercial products that come from bad places!

    Both of those things will happen at the Superb Owl.

    It is definitely okay to not be enthused, or even skip it all together

    It'd be one thing if you were saying you weren't watching THE NFL AT ALL because of its long history of being a haven for abusers.

    That you draw the line at this specific Superbowl pairing is bullshit and absolutely "and yet you live in a society."

    i watch much less football than i did even a few years ago.

    in this superbowl you will hear them excitedly call out the name of a domestic abuser and a known racist hundreds of times, celebrating their performance.

    why is this somehow a ludicrous position to not want to subject myself to this.

    It's not ludicrous, it's hypocritical. When was the last time this wasn't the case for a SB?

    Nah

    What's bullshit is feeling the need to call out people for being unhappy
