I take it some kind of sporting event didn't go well for you? 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

It was Bulldog, Rounders or Netball. Not sure which.

It was something that the Americans call "football", where the ball is never allowed to touch anyone's foot. The rules being:
- stand around for 10 minutes
- throw the ball around for 10 seconds
- jump up and down shouting "touchdown" with the ball held high above the head
- repeat for four hours
- stand around for a further ten minutes looking at the clock
- declare someone the winner

On the contrary, kicking is a vital part of the game.

I watched a superbowl live some years ago (when the Broncos also won), but I don't remember any kicking; unless it was of the opposition. 
|
|
|
|
|
So you don't remember 11 kick-offs, 8 punts, and 2 field goals? How much were you drinking that night?

I didn't drink much at all, I was just bored to tears.

Last time the Broncos won was 1999. Over a dozen kicks in that game.
Ah don't lean on me man, cause you can't afford the ticket

Would help if their players didn't keep getting stupid fouls. For example, when that one guy got the flag for unsportsmanlike conduct, I was just like -_- really.

What's so "super" about CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy)?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

What do you expect when you waste electricity viewing professional sports?
There's a reason the biggest hype of the event are the "extra fancy" commercial breaks.
Next time - watch a movie.

Perhaps, then, you should enlighten me.
Or let me squander what remains of my existence in blissful ignorance. That, too, has merit.

Were you forced to watch or did you choose to?
|

I chose to watch the game. I did some other stuff in the half-time interval but needed to hear the 'music' to know when to return to a watching position for the 2nd half. So listen, not watch. I'm not that self flagellating!

So you were the dumb ass that watched for 4 hours. 
|
|
|
|

At least I only took in the game. There are no doubt millions who watched the preview, the build-up, the pre-game ceremonies, and the post-game on-field celebrations and trophy awarding; 6 - 8 hours!
The last hour or so was like a horror movie. You watch through your fingers but you just can't leave!

Good anthem (even if I'm not American or a Gaga fan)
Good 1/2 half.
Good 1/2 time show (contrary to you I prefer Coldplay to Bruno Mars, and don't mind Beyonce).
We, GF and I swapped channels all evening.
I'd rather be phishing!

Preferring one horrible thing to another truly terrible thing is not a compliment! I prefer being stung by a wasp to being eaten by a shark, for example!
