Superbowl over hyped to the point of nauseum

It is actually to the point where I could care less about the damn thing anymore. They really need to scale the whole thing back and keep it in perspective. I know the NFL is all about the dollar, but there comes a point of over saturation. Even die hard fans of the two teams must be sick and tired of all the hoopla.

When the Panthers get in, I will not be watching any of this bullshat that they fill these two weeks with. Just do one week to get your revenue and play the damn game.

To be honest I've barely heard anything about the super bowl its all about these fugging balls and who did what and who didn't do what. There are two weeks between the Conference champ games and the super bowl; in that time they usually talk about the super bowl. Its the fugging super bowl, the biggest sporting event in the US and as soon as its over we all get a little depressed because there is no more football for like 8 months.

Since the Conf Championships I haven't tuned into ESPN or NFLN, Ive turned off sports radio, and haven't really been to any of the sports websites I frequent outside of the Huddle.

 

 

Just to avoid the fatigue of listening to all of the BS that has gone on.

 

Ill turn on the pregame poo at 2 or something and be all caught up and ready for the game.

I loved every minute hearing about the Panthers when they were in the Super Bowl. It was all I heard and thought of the whole time and it was wonderful.

The Super Bowl itself is a great show and an awesome time.

Sounds like you're just being a sourpuss to me. Just turn the TV off

When the Panthers make it I'll revel in all the hype and press, but until then I'll just ignore it all. To Seattle and Boston this is the greatest thing ever and you know they are loving all of this stuff (I just threw up in my mouth a little)

 

The only interest I have in the game is which team I want to lose and I go back and forth every day.

I hate both the teams in it and probably won't watch it.  I'd honestly much rather be watching Sleeping Beauty with my 3 year old daughter, which is what we do every SINGLE night. 

 

If the Panthers were in it, that'd be a whole different story.....I would not be watching Sleeping Beauty.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
