I think the die hard futures.io (formerly BMT )'ers are Seahawks fans, because early on the futures.io (formerly BMT) poll was like 70/30 Seahawks favor. Now it's about 50/50.

I was a Redskins fan back then (originally from DC), so I detested them, but I have to say, that was an amazing team.

I was born in 77. Besides, never too young to love football in Texas. The cradle would be considered a late start.

That depends on whether the Deflate Balls parameter is checked in the settings...

Well, if the balls are fully inflated, it seems as though the Pats won't have a chance...

What is everyone doing this Super Bowl?
Entertaining @ home? Going to friends? Just a small gathering? Big?
I'm curious what you guys do for the game.

Quite jealous of that BBQ, sounds great and nothing like that here. There is a gringo get together at one of the places here, but not sure I'll attend.

Could be a business idea in bringing Texas style BBQ to Ecuador?
One of my life goals is to own a restaurant... I don't want to run it, just enjoy the benefits.

Just a small get together with a few buddies here. Nothing too crazy. I live in CT, but don't even like the Patriots. I don't like the SeaHawks either. Actually, I don't even like football. I do like chicken wings. I'm doing this for the chicken.

Entertaining a few relatives at home, as usual.
Last year was cool because my wife's cousin came. He writes and directs a lot of TV commercials so it was interesting to get his insights about the commercials, some of which he worked on.

The word of this superbowl was interception. Interceptions put the Seahawks into the game, and end the end took them out of it.

Don't you hate it when you are a fan of all 4 teams that made it. Ultimately, I had to make my decision to cheer for the Patriots during the game. Such an edge of the seat game (flashback of the infamous Giants helmet catch for Patriots). Happy with the outcome! Cheers!

My brother-in-law said he asked Siri (on his iPhone) who was going to win the Super Bowl and she told him the Patriots were favored to win by 1pt so he made a bet somewhere with somebody and won $50.
