February 3, 201511 yr This is basically what Al Michaels and CC said at some point in time last night. In other words, let's forget about domestic violence, concussions/player safety, deflated balls and other possible cheating, guys not talking to the press, controversial playoff game-changing calls, overtime rules, on and on and on. Let's be thankful that we can kick back and enjoy a football game. Can we separate all of the controversy from the actual game on television? How long after the game is over before we fixate once again on these issues - and some of them are pretty serious issues. Which of these (or any that I didn't name) need immediate and comprehensive attention? And did any of them keep any of you from watching last night?

Didn't watch one second of it (5th year in a row), matter of fact I haven't watched TV since Wednesday night.

February 3, 201511 yr I'm not sure how anyone can not watch at least a little of the game. Hell, most people who don't understand the rules of football watch.

Al and Cris are so good at what they do and Cris normally has some great insights. Mostly I am thankful for NBC except I question them imposing their inconsistent morals on everyone based on what commercials they censor and some of what they allow.
February 3, 201511 yr Author Little Mike on Mike and Mike was screaming and raving when somebody saud that 64% of Americans did not watch. Couldn't believe than ANYBODY wouldn't tune in.

I was surprised that the defecatory endzone celebration was censored. We see plenty of other stuff on the field that is just as bad.
