superbowl sunday

[Jones]

get over yourselves, no one cares

[PaulOakenfold]

I don't agree with the day off (I probably won't make it... I say this a lot even when I can't make it, make a note of it!), but this is an American game!

International? Who cares:

Since it's nowhere close to an international holiday such as christmas, it should most definitely be played. (and yes, I intend to watch it)

[Pressure Drop]

if captains want to schedule for saturday fine but a postponement or forced no sunday games for the superbowl would be a bad move

[PH]

yeah, last superbowl had 97.5 million viewers worldwide.

2006 world cup final had 607.9 million viewers...

hell about 200million people tuned in to watch the ping pong finals at the beijing olympics...

you mean 97.5 million viewers in the u.s. (it was 148.3 million worldwide.) 97.5 million is damn near a third of our population, and 65% of american televisions in use during the game were tuned into the super bowl. i don't care either way, just saying you should probably get your facts straight.

Pitt vs Arizona. Boring.

[PUNK rock]

Yes, because I'm English........

If were gonna postpone/cancel TWL for the Superbowl, we need to cancel it for cricket, rugby, football, icehockey, curling, basketball, darts, ski jumping, ping pong and every other sport on the face of the planet.

The difference between those games and the Super Bowl is that the Super Bowl is a much larger event in terms of how many people watch it.

[Barton]

No cancel!!!


like disp said : "If were gonna postpone/cancel TWL for the Superbowl, we need to cancel it for cricket, rugby, football, icehockey, curling, basketball, darts, ski jumping, ping pong and every other sport on the face of the planet."

he is right, if we are going to cancel this weekend for something as stupid as a game that only shows in the stats then you might cancel it for every sport event on a sunday...
