As part of my church's worship team, I'll be playing in services at 9:15 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and at 5:00 p.m. So I won't even be home until pretty close to 7 p.m.

None of the poll choices include "watching part of it."

No set plans. Will probably watch the game only if nothing else going on at the time. I miss college football. Not a big fan of the NFL lately.

Going for a motorcycle ride, if it's not raining, otherwise going to shooting range, then watch the game in the evening.

I find football boring.

If you've watched one game - you've watched them all.

Now, get off my lawn.

Same here. Church in the morning, home for lunch and kids' naps, then back to church for AWANA. If not for that we might go to a SuperBowl party to hang out with friends, but football isn't my thing unless I'm on the sidelines with a nice camera or two.

Pretty much anything except watching the game. The Superbowl has degenerated into something other than a sporting event.

From the above link
"Lets stop pulling punches! Every member of the ACU leadership team sees the same thing. The NFL is again standing against the 2nd amendment (for those of you who need a quick recap please see Mr. Colion Noirs video)!
The NFL actively endorsed the Mayor’s Against Illegal Guns ad (the ads featured the NFL logos which requires NFL permission) and the NFL let Bob Costas rant without any recourse. After these actions over the past couple of seasons we should all recognize the official stance of the NFL to be against the 2nd Amendment and against self-defense."


A few folks had mentioned avoiding movies to show they were against the political stance of individual actors in said movie. I am wondering how many have the same level of commitment when talking about football.

Still not convinced? Here is another interesting link. http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2011/0 ... -anti-gun/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

As usual, I agree with your position on this matter; however, with commercials bringing in a gazillion $$$ a minute, my watching OR not watching will have minimal impact on the success of the production. In fact, my participation will not be noticed outside my home.....if even there? My nose has been disfigured enough without further cutting on it.

I'll be landing in Las Vegas NV for a nice lil' vacay. My wife said we could find somewhere to watch the game, but I don't know that I want to.
