The worst thing to come from Super Bowl XL (1 Viewer)

Suprisingly it's not all the articles or threads about the officiating, its actually the phrase "ticky-tack". That is all.

What a ticky-tack complaint to make about an event as big as the Super Bowl.

 

[John 14:6]

That phrase was around before this Superbowl...

Yeah, but there's definitley going to be some overage charges considering how much it's been used this week.

Having attended all the events I can think of two things:

-The Seahawks losing since I'm a Seahawks fan. (DUH)

-On Saturday night the weather sucked. On Friday there was half nude women, half drunk, looking for half a beer and a whole lot o fun. Saturday we saw all the ladies bulked up for the weather and had to retreat inside to see some of the great Super Bowl wildlife. That sucked.

Considering what the weather mid-January in Detroit usually is (below 0, knee-deep snow), you should be thrilled with low '20's and snow flurries. It's a bummer the mid-30's didn't hold all weekend, but we really got lucky.

National Anthem or Stones haltime show....take your pick. :X

Aretha saved the anthem but the halftime show was not good. All the lights and those dancing freaks made it palatable anyway. I like lights....

I think having a Slim-fast commercial during the Super Bowl was the low-light.

The game seems to be less important than the pomp and circumstance surrounding it. With each passing season it gets a little worse.

Worse things from SB XL than the words "ticky tack":

Joey Porter's mouth.

Joey Porter's performance

Jerramy Steven's performance

The disappointing commercials

The Rolling Stones (in general)

Mick Jagger's belly shirt (to be specific)

Mick Jagger's belly-aching about the censorship that he agreed to beforehand

The referees' performance

Aaron Neville's performance (and the prison tat on his cheek)

Aretha Franklin's belief that an invitation to sing the National Anthem is actually an invitation to grandstand

Ben Roethlisberger's performance

Matt Hasselbeck's INT

Josh Brown's performance

Tom Roen's performance

Holmgren's clock mamagement

 

[Mr. Pink]

The worst thing to come from SB XL? The stark realization that you can't have a close, compelling, entertaining, down-to-the-last-play game unless the Patriots are participating. Out.

Good list. I'd only disagree on Aretha,she saved the anthem when she joined in. Otherwise,kudos's.

This is what people in Russia call good luck.

Sorry for the ticky-tack correction here, but the coldest average high in Detroit occurs on Jan 17-22 and is 32 degrees. http://www.weather.com/activities/homeandg...29&climoMonth=1

If the Giants' running game was involved in a close call, would we call it Tiki-tack?

It's all about the wind chill, man. Don't see anything about that in your fancy chart.
