I was going to watch the game, although really I'm lying and my entire plan for the day was always to keep playing Fallout: New Vegas until my eyes bled.

RIP everyone's fleeting obsession with the Seahawks.

Thank fuck and good riddance, now you can all find something new to pretend to be obsessed with.

They lost? Damn. I may not give a **** about football, but I do like hearing about any team from Boston losing. A.) My best friend roots for Boston and I hate him, and B.) I still can't forgive that Massachusetts for continuing to elect a scumbag like Ted Kennedy on a regular basis. I realize you're a mindlessly liberal state, and that you have your collective faces buried in the genitals of the Kennedy family, but dear god, he's such a terrible human being.

The end of the game was awesome! Not the interception but the fight and subsequent ejection!

I don't know that this is the place to get caught up in this argument, but I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with electing a terrible human being. I mean, this is someone who did a lot of good for a lot of people despite being personally awful. I'd take his reelection, although politically I'm not his biggest fan, over a nice, upstanding person who votes to do things that I think are equally morally repellent. (Also, you know he's dead, right?)

It was kind of hilarious. I was hoping the Seahawks would just keep getting called for penalties until the Patriots scored again, but whatever.

The interception though... I know next to nothing about football, but I know they should have run the ball. Come on.

People don't elect officials based on competence. They do so based on a popularity contest. How the hell do you cause a woman to drown because you were too much of a drunk rich boy to do anything to help and still win a popularity contest? How stupid and shallow is Massachusetts?

I know. I remember it fondly.

Since my team was eliminated in the playoffs, I was rooting for Seattle to win, cause few people on MB (like Paul) are Seattle fans.

From what I've read, Seattle lost the game in a stupid way. However, if you're a fan of the Pats, congrats to you.
