Romo singing (if one can call it that) during an outro into commercial break was the lowlight of the telecast.

No mention of the Niners going for it on fourth down inside the twenty...and making it? They could've just kicked the FG, but nooo. Loved it. Same with KC in OT. It's all about execution. Still, there were TWO record-breaking FGs in this game! And a blocked extra point...there are no gimmes.

I disagree that it was a boring game for the most part, I love defensive tug-of-wars.

I "watched" the halftime show with my eyes closed. They call that music?

The RFK, Jr. campaign commercial was bizarre.

Except for the fourth quarter and overtime finish, the highlight for me was the Walken BMW ad.

I enjoyed the VW ad...

The mid-2000s were the last era of good Super Bowl commercials.

Sort of a throwback to the JFK campaign in 1960 -- it certainly got my attention. What really threw me for a loop was the "Vote Independent" message, not something one usually associates with the Kennedy family.

I watched most of the game of Nick. Noah Eagle was doing PBP.

The CBS feed was about 20 seconds behind the Nick.

When the Chiefs went for it on fourth down in overtime, they were on their own 34-yard-line. They NEEDED to go for it at that point; it was either get the first down or game-over, and Mahomes got the first down. The Chiefs didn't face another fourth-down play before they scored the winning TD.

You're right, of course. I was just making a point of going for it on fourth down and making it. KC's was probably a bad example of making the point...but they did make it.
I do stand corrected.

It was nice to see Wilford Brimley having so much success in his second career.

Reid needs to start reading some oatmeal spots on TV.

I'm gonna have to at least have it on channel 6. My 12-year-old will want to see any time Taylor Swift is shown. Even if it is only two or three times.

The people at bar I watched the game at did the most American thing you can do every time Swift appeared on screen:

TURNED IT INTO A DRNKING GAME !!!

Great fun was had by all.

She was legitimately pissed while SF was winning. I told her Taylor Swift won't be getting a ring one way or the other.
