"Success will bring the country together,” said President Trump in his Super Bowl interview

Of course not! Too many people have been taught — by elementary school teachers, middle and high school teachers, and college professors — that this country is irredeemably evil. They will be in no way happy if the US is successful.

Peachy કહ્યું...

To the evil religous cult that is the Democrat party and their cult media - this means war.

rhhardin કહ્યું...

For the 25th year in a row, I have no idea who's playing in the Super Bowl. If it's not played in weather below 0 F or in deep mud, football holds no interest.

wild chicken કહ્યું...

I assume the progs won't watch because it's on FOX?

Jaq કહ્યું...

If he is successful in breaking the iron rice bowls of the DC insiders and their henchmen in the bureaucracy, there are still going to be a fair number of unhappy people, and they control the media.

Narr કહ્યું...

The donut shop had two tip boxes out, one for KC and the other for Philly. The KC box seemed to have more bills in it, and more large ones--I saw a few 20s.

Normally I tip there when I buy something, but I skipped it today.

rehajm કહ્યું...

Pleasantly surprised its been relatively leftie-propaganda free when I’ve focused one eye their way…yay Trump though. Kara Schwisser must be extra insurrection-ey after that…

Iman કહ્યું...

Missed the interview, but Jaq is correct… there will be many people absolutely verklempt about being kicked off the gravy train. Some may even find themselves in legal jeopardy.

And for good reason.

Swifties vs cheesesteaks

Jupiter કહ્યું...

DEI vs DEI.

Jupiter કહ્યું...

We get the circuses. They keep the bread for themselves.

Yancey Ward કહ્યું...

I don't much care who wins tonight but, for novelty, I hope KC becomes the first 3-Peat winner.

Leland કહ્યું...

Fox going heavy on the patriotism. They even have a former Patriot doing color commentary.

Arashi કહ્યું...

Yes some folks will still be upset. These are the people that if someone gave them a brand new Lamborghini, they would complain that it was the wrong color and if red, call their attorney to sue for being triggered.

tcrosse કહ્યું...

Love will keep us together. (Although it didn't keep the Captain and Tennille together.)

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@Yancey Ward, 1st half is all Eagles defense.

gilbar કહ્યું...

With Taylor Swift's support; HOW can Harris lose?

Big Mike કહ્યું...

(And so far the commercials have not been impressive. There was one where a man is holding his little girl and having flash-forwards to when he teaches her to drive and later still when he drops her off at college that appealed to an old softy like me, but mostly just meh.)

Larry J કહ્યું...

Democrats are only happy when they’re in power, the graft is flowing, and America is losing.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

DJT said the forbidden word: KICKBACKS. So Brett Baer never mentioned it.

Narr કહ્યું...

@Big Mike (7:24)

Be glad the commercial wasn't about proud Pop driving his little girl to their first abortion.

I saw the last third of the second quarter, looked in at the Puppy Bowl, and went back a few minutes into the halftime show. Fascinating, in its way.

I wonder what it's supposed to mean.

Leland કહ્યું...

If the Chiefs don’t win, how will Travis Kelce propose to Taylor?

NorthOfTheOneOhOne કહ્યું...

Well, looks like we'll be getting a new album soon once Taylor writes 47 different songs about how disappointed she is that her boyfriend's team lost.

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@Leland, he won’t be able to propose — she’ll start dating someone else.

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@Leland, I think Jalen Hurts is single. Maybe Swift can date him instead?

JRoberts કહ્યું...

Regarding the halftime show, another year of boring hip-hop (or whatever this was). Rick Beato is right, modern popular music is dead.

Being in New Orleans, it would have great to have had a significant jazz representation. Trombone Shorty, Perservation Hall Band, etc. would have been an improvement over Kendrick Lamar.

BTW, is anybody else getting tired of Samuel L. Jackson and his Shtick?

Clever Pseudonym કહ્યું...

Yes, to JRoberts' suggestion:
Trombone Shorty, Kermit Ruffins, the Rebirth Brass Band etc: NOLA musicians would have rocked the house with some real funky jazz and instrumental skill, not tedious rapping.
(I love hip hop but live performances are its weak spot.)

Quaestor કહ્યું...

It remined me of this gem.

William કહ્યું...

Mahomes showed a lot of character. I don't think a QB has ever been sacked that much in a Superbowl. He really got run over a few times, but he hung in there.......I looked up the lyrics to Not Like Us, the Kendrick Lamar rap song. Then I asked ChatGpt what the lyrics meant. Apparently he accuses Drake of pedophilia in the song. How is that not defamation:

Ice Nine કહ્યું...

Halftime show was dreadful. Monotonous, unintelligible muttering. Could they at least have danced a bit?

Where's Prince when you really need him?

Narr કહ્યું...

I understand that the halftime rapper was Kendrick Lamar, and the girl singer was Memphis' own Flo-rilla.

A proud moment for us.

tommyesq કહ્યું...

Following up on Big Mike, the major problem in America since Obama got elected is the notion that the greatest signifies that you don't deserve to succeed is actual success.

tommyesq કહ્યું...

Also, could you imagine Jeep running the Harrison Ford jingoistic pro America ad during the Biden years?

effinayright કહ્યું...

The only commercial that got even a snort from me was the one with the Man with a Cowboy Head. The rest? Meh. We watched Mark Levin during halftime, and were thus spared the savage shit that is hip hop. (as Mark would say, "There. I said it.")

Leland કહ્યું...

I clicked off near the start of the 4th quarter. Hurts 50+ yard, all-air, TD pass was just the chefs kiss to a deserved win.

Curious George કહ્યું...

"Apparently he accuses Drake of pedophilia in the song. How is that not defamation:"

How? If it's true.

Hey Skipper કહ્યું...

The Carl’s Jr ad made me stop breathing for a bit.

JAORE કહ્યું...

"Apparently he accuses Drake of pedophilia in the song. How is that not defamation:"
He does in the full version of the song. But he cut the specific lines that did so for the Superbowl. People still understood. And Kendrick tossed out a line about "likin' 'em young".

Lazarus કહ્યું...

If Kendrick is rapping at the Superbowl about his feud with another rapper maybe he isn't that creative after all. He didn't have to write something new for the occasion, but does he really not have anything else in his quiver?

About Trump: cooperating to achieve success may bring us together. Achieving success probably won't. Given security, we'll only start attacking each other again. America goes from being on top of the world to tearing itself apart. We can't think of anything else to do, so we go looking for challenges that tear the country down rather than build it up.

I'm not entirely sure about the cooperation to achieve success either: we didn't have social media or 24 hour news when we won world wars and cold wars. On the positive side though, if we have goals that we can agree on, maybe we manage to come together for a while.
