What's on your Superbowl menu?

I don't even know when it is although since we are in it this year, it will
likely be on in this house. I don't plan to eat anything different than
usual though.

By this time next week probably half the team members will be in prison for
rape, murder, extortion, drugs, felony firearms dealing, prostitution, bank
robbery and child abuse.

I think your plans are a bit optimistic.

Just another Sunday. We won't be watching or doing anything special. I
know the Patriots are playing and I think Seattle, but I'm not sure. Nor

I rarely pay attention to commercials. The ones that do get my attention
general either have a snappy tune or no sound at all. Used to be one with
no sound. It would get me to look at the TV, perhaps to see if it was
broken or the cable went out but it sure didn't keep my attention and I
haven't a clue what the commercial was for.

A neighbor down the street has a "12" flag in his yard. This is Iowa, and it took me quite a while to figure out what the heck the "12" stood for :D

I enjoy the commercials more than the game unless my team is in it,
which has happened three times in my life time.

I didn't expect quite so many people to come out so strongly against
football, I'm surprised, what ever happened to tolerance and getting
along??. A typical super bowl (or college national championship game!) in my
house will usually consist of chili (of doom), a cheese/rotel/sausage dip
with some chips, a cheese roll thing with crackers and at half-time, make
wings.Served with liberal doses of beer. And yes, the commercials rock.
Especially the anheuser busch ones! This is the one from last year and I
understand that the puppy will be in it again this year.

I don't think anyone has put a knife to anyone's throat here because they don't care for the Super Bowl. Will you not be tolerant of us that don't care for the S. B.? Are we not allowed to voice an opinion because we are not rah-rah-rahing this event that will soon be upon us?

Nothing to pretend about. I don't have a team so it does not matter who
plays. I live in New England but don't give a damn about the Partiots
and even less about Kraft. In my entire life I've probably watched a
total of a couple of hours, never a full game.

Years ago, when I lived in Philly, I was given two 50 yard line seats to
an Eagles Game. We did not make the first quarter and left. Damned
silly to sit out in cold damp weather.

Most pro athletes are very good at what they do, but are overpaid prima
donnas in many cases. I just don't get all excited watching them. I
have taken my wife to a couple of hockey games when I was given tickets
as she likes the game. I did actually buy tickets to a Phillies game
once back in the 1960's. I've never been a sports fan.

I concur completely. We are Washington Redskins fans - don't ask the
last time they were in the Super bowl! We will watch every minute of
the Super bowl and will hope Seattle wins - can't stand the Patriots
(even though we were originally from New England). We live in Md now
and when the Baltimore Ravens played against the SF 49ers, we cheered
for SF.

I will make a big pot of Chili with beef, hot sausage and lots of beans
in it. Salsa and chips along with cheese and crackers too. We will
drink homemade "football wine".

As you can tell we love football - it's the only sport we follow no
matter what team is playing.

Heh, I figure out other things to do while the game is on - like cook
or diddle on the computer. I was asking menus because it looks like
I'll be hosting a Super Bowl party. I know what I usually do and I
know what I plan to try that's different. Usually people in rfc are
gushing on and on about the super bowl, so it just goes to show that
they aren't even interested unless their team is in it. Hypocrites.

The dilemma at this house will be figuring out who to root against
(not for). Rooting against the Sea Hawks would have been a no brainer
if cheating hadn't happened in the last game. Funny how only one
team's footballs were under inflated. Must have been much chillier in
their dugout than the opposing team's. I feel sorry for the "fall
guy".

I guess we'll have to flip a coin to figure out who to root against
this year.

If you don't want comments to a thread you've started that don't agree with you or offer a different opinion you should state that at the beginning of your post. Just remember, you do the exact same thing that you accuse people of being 'like Julie.' So yes, if "the shoe fits" wear it and don't act like it's not your size.

Is it so beyond belief that some people just do not like or watch football?
I find the game terribly boring. And I find the whole football culture to
be a obscenity on every level from whole neighborhoods being bulldozed for
yet another NFL stadium paid for by taxpayers to billionaire owners who
sanction rape to players who commit heinous acts of violence including mass
murder or otherwise exhibit sadistic qualities that should put them in a
prison. Not to mention that they all look like they just got out out of a
20 year stint in San Quentin. All that so advertisers can spend biullions

My "team" for years has been the Patriots and they are a good damn
team. I generally only watch football when they are playing. I'm
happy to see them make the Superbowl this year. It ought to be a good
game since Seattle is another good one. Look how they won that

We will watch although we were very disappointed that the Packers lost
traction after a good start. If I fix something, it will probably be
Nachos or something along that line. There's just the two of us, so
no fuss necessary.

I make something beforehand that I can go back to later if I want.
I'll watch the commercials in the first half of the game as they tend
to be the better ones. Half-time show is a good time for me to do
something else. I've never seen a good half-time show.

It's not some super special game though. It's good if you like
football but nothing to party at if you don't. It's just one more
Sunday game. I've gone to superbowl parties and once to a sports bar.
Worst things I've ever done. Most of the people there don't care at
all about the game, it's just a get together to party. All the
hooting and hollering after every single play makes me want to kill
them all.

My team is playing this year so I'll watch it, at home almost
alone...just me and my ferret. She doesn't care about football but at
least she won't hoot after each play.

Food for the night? I'll be off work tomorrow and still time to buy
some ground beef on sale.

My superbowl snack will be what I call "Dinner Nachos."

- ground beef fried with onions and drained
- then add in sharp cheddar cheese and a bit of salsa and a pack of
taco seasoning

Plate that, then separate piles of sour cream and medium salsa

Salty white corn tortilla chips to scoop it all up with.

How do you make your Buffalo Cauliflower Wings?

Some recipes use a flour coating before baking; some bake "naked" then
add hot sauce and bake for 5 minutes more. Which method is better?

That might be a good idea, though I only make sausage and peppers

The only hype I've heard about the Superbowl is all the idiots here
jumping on the bandwagon to claim how they hate it so much. You
dumbasses must think that it's "cool" to hate the Superbowl since I've
only heard bragging rights here about hating it.

It's a 3 hour show on a Sunday night, one channel only, once a year.
How come no one bitches about the other 51 Sunday nights and what's on
tv then. Get a life people.

It's none of your business what I or anyone else cares to discuss on
here, arse-hat. Aside from that, rubbish like the superbowl is
impossible to avoid, even if one isn't american OR watches TV.

Several months ago, you were complaining about and wanting to kill
that guy on whatever TV show it was (was it called mountain men?).
You have a habit of being a first-class hypocrite on here, and
frequently, too.

Well yeah, but since it's a "What's on your Superbowl menu" you naysayers
are sounding a lot like someone you always call out for the very same thing.
Start a thread like "What do you hate about Superbowl" and it'll go on

Agree, we don't do parties as a rule since we like to actually watch the
game. I liked the Bruce Springsteen and the Kid Rock half times, but that's

Football is pretty tame compared to some other contact sports. They are
well padded. I played football for a few years in high school and never
got any serious injuries. I was injured a lot more in horse back riding
classes, breaking a collar bone one time and ribs another time. Close to
95% of riding students are female and a number of the girls at our
stable were injured... a broken arm, broken pelvis, two with broken
collar bones.

The only enthusiasm I have seen is for the party food. The only
sporting events that I regularly watch are equestrian events. I used to
occasionally watch hockey... if there was nothing else on. I started my
own personal boycott after the lock out two years ago. I sometimes
watch the Grey Cup game (Canadian championship) and the Super Bowl.

It's fun to watch.

All I can say is if I remember to tune to that channel on that day, some
of the commercials would make me smile. And no, I don't drink beer.

I am not a big football fan, but the SuperBowl is fun, lots of fun commercials, good football and Katy Perry is great. I will not be fixing any thng as I will be on a ship, but we will probably watch it, or at least parts of it.

You can't believe that commercials can be entertaining? There are all
sorts of good commercials available online. There are special awards for
commercials. Most of the Stella Artois commercials are quite funny. I
especially liked the one with the soldiers returning from the trenches.
It is all in French but the message is obvious. It is brilliant.

An ex NEP is being tried on murder charges for killing a fellow player.
Hernandez is the name. Strongly appears he may have killed two other people
because one spilled a drink on him in a bar and he felt disrespected. I
remember the football stars in my HS. Nasty bunch of a-holes they were and
they got away with everything including rape and physical assault.

A buddy of mine now lives in Texas. His son is now a sophomore in HS and
wants to play varsity football. So he learned that during the grueling
summer practice sessions a few kids ended up being taken to the hospital
suffering from heat issues such as cardiac arrhythmia. The school's
reaction was not to change the practice times but to keep a defibrillator on
the field instead.

I have seen some pretty bad behaviour from some of those power wheel
chairs and scooters. Some of them just zip along at high speed. I once
threatened a buy in a powered wheel chair. I had seen him take runs at
people, forcing them to jump out of his way. It was accident. After the
third incident within a couple minutes I went over and told him that I
saw him do it again I would push him and his wheelchair down a set of
stairs. I am sure it sucks to have to live in a wheel chair, but you
can't take it out on everyone else in the world.
