Anyone staying up (or pretending to be in the USA) for this?

I watched the last two, so I probably will.

Sorry, but any British person who goes out of their way to watch American football is a pretentious dork IMHO

I never understood why somebody thought rugby would be better if they stopped the clock after every 30 seconds of play, so that a 60-minute game actually lasts about 4 1/2 hours.

It's not really that similar to rugby. It's actually more like a turn-based game. Essentially you have a whole different team on the field when you're in possession of the ball as when the other team do. Kind of like cricket if each innings was only one over, perhaps!

I'm not sure it's better, just different. I'm not really a fan of the sport, but it's a change.

[LKK]

Not really interested. Don't u'stand the hype.

Beyonce has promised to sing live this time.

Nope. Back in the UK. Did have a good chat about it on Friday to some US colleagues to whit I had to point out that really American Football is the equivalent of Rugby but for nancy boys. Went down well.
