Super Bowl

I love it when I get to highlight the geek-toid in me and this does it very well indeed; Volkswagen has unveiled it's Super Bowl Sunday TV ad, or at least some of it anyway, and it's another tribute to Star Wars. One has to conclude that since there is no car actually shown in the spot that there will be more to it ...

Great games this past weekend, very entertaining and hard fought... now it's prediction time, who do you think will make it to Super Bowl XLVI?

Approximately 1250 people who purchased tickets to yesterday's Super Bowl were not allowed to sit in their seat for the game.  Some were given different seats but about 400 were shuffled into areas where most were forced to stand up while watching the game on a TV screen.

Everywhere you look people will be spending the next several days trashing Christina Aguiera who fumbled the National Anthem at the Super Bowl. It was abysmal, and shame on her for it. But I'm not going to trash her for flubbing the lines. Lots of people do that, if you put me in front of millions of viewers and said recite the pledge I'd probably forget my name as the flop sweat shoots from my po

If you didn't get to watch the big game, here is your opportunity to see all of the commercials. The Bridgestone Reply All ad was pretty hilarious, especially if you have ever accidentally hit reply all instead of just reply.  Joan Rivers head was on top of a hot body for the GoDaddy ad, that was scary and gross all at the same time.

For its first couple decades of existence, the Super Bowl halftime show featured marching bands or “Up With People”-type musical medleys. Unfortunately, but the only folks who really got excited about those performances were the families of the performers. Over the last 20 years, the Super Bowl halftime stage has become home to top hits and the increased star powers of popular musical acts. We’ve

The Super Bowl is the best (or worst) day of the year for gamblers. That’s because Vegas, in an attempt to squeeze every last dollar out of the big game, will let you bet on just about anything tangentially related to Super Bowl. We scoured the Internet to find ten prop bets that have little or nothing with the actual play on the field, but can keep you entertained all day Sunday and beyond. Re

Come Monday morning, there’s a chance a player like Aaron Rodgers or Clay Matthews or Ben Roethlisberger or Troy Polamalu will have etched their name on the Super Bowl MVP trophy with the kind of performance that will be remembered for years to come. Or, perhaps, a more obscure player will rise to the occasion and leave an indelible mark on the most important sporting event of the year. Here is ou

The night before Super Bowl I, Green Bay Packers’ back-up wide receiver Max McGee violated team curfew and partied until the wee hours of the morning, figuring he had little chance of playing in the game.

This year, a 30-second commercial during the Super Bowl will cost three million dollars. At that price, any company hawking its product during the big game better hope its ad makes a big impression. We’ve compiled a chronological list of 10 Super Bowl commercials that went over like a flawlessly executed touchdown. By lodging themselves in our collective consciousness, these ads made the commercia

The Super Bowl hasn’t always been so super. In fact, throughout the ‘80s and into the first half of the ‘90s many of the games were blowouts the likes of which are rarely seen during the regular season. We’ve had better luck with Super Bowls lately, and this year’s match-up between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers is about as even as can be. So maybe Sunday’s game will end up bei

The Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers won their conference championships to move on to Super Bowl XL. Here are the best snaps of these two teams.
