SteveStrummerUK I'm guessing "Superbowl" is a portmanteau of the word "super" and the word "bowl". So, who is actually doing the bowling?

 
You are. You get to watch the best TV game ever created. No detail goes by missed, and the goal line idiocy by old kranks that live in the past is not an issue!
 

SteveStrummerUK
And just how 'super' are they?

 
Pretty good. They are the best of what is left. I do think that best two teams got there.
 

SteveStrummerUK
And for that matter, which bunch of armour-plated pansies is batting?

 
You are. But on a couch with potato chips, wieners, and Am, if you are bored!
 

SteveStrummerUK
Is Bruno Mars really from Mars?

 
Like you and I really give a merde!

Where are the Bronco's horses?

 
You didn't see those beautiful Chippendales?
 

SteveStrummerUK What exactly is Manning painting?

 
Your wallet!
 

SteveStrummerUK Do all the participants really need a (conveniently advertisement-length) rest every 9 seconds?

 
While that's not something that happens in every sport, it is one of the things that makes this sport so good. Look at the sidelines and the coaches looking at snap shots of plays and trying to find ways to stop it, or from getting around it. AVB could have used that to his advantage, but he was stubborn and stupid!
 

SteveStrummerUK
Is the phrase "first down and inches" rude?

 
To the inferior Brits it might be! .... hehehehe!
 

SteveStrummerUK
Is it still Superbowl tradition for at least one member of the Jackson family to expose one of their breasts at half time?

 
Oh, c'mon, Playboy and some of your English magazines have far better looking and less screwed up people on them! Nothing against the girl and her body and shape, but she is far worse representative of what was wrong in that family than Michael ever was!
 

SteveStrummerUK
Are the words "red" and "hot" superfluous - shouldn't they just be called the "Chili Peppers"?

 
RED HOT, to you ... but damn it, it was not an Alehmbic that Flea was playing to Bapu's disappointment.
 

SteveStrummerUK
Are the bluest skies you've ever seen really in Seattle?

 
YES. And the air is mostly very clean, and easier to smell and sniff, than London's!
 

SteveStrummerUK
Do all the players ride motorcycles to the game, but forget to take off their helmets?

 
Sometimes. In America, it is now a status symbol!
 

SteveStrummerUK
I notice that there as many umpires/referees/officials as players -  are American Football players incapable of following the simple rules?

 
Sometimes. But generally there are too many details that could be considered cheating that are had to see and catch. One of the referees does the line, the other the ball, the other this and that, for example. They all have different jobs!

Why are they all eating delicious apple turnovers?
Is William Perry still a fridge, or is he now some other type of kitchen appliance?

Both of these questions will remain un-answered because the answers could be toxic and unsavory!

7.  Do all the participants really need a (conveniently advertisement-length) rest every 9 seconds? 
 
 

Sometimes they do.  But in last night's game, it was to provide us with some entertaining commercials to offset the boring game.  

I can't think of any commercial lately that's really been better than the rest except

I was a little disappointed because I'd seen half of the commercials before the game.

I was a little disappointed because I'd seen half of the commercials before the game.  

Which half?  The first half, the second half, the top half or

The half that sucked. 

The Axe commercial had to be one of the

I was in Seattle for 4 weeks in November and December.
 
I can honestly say I only saw the sky 4 times.  the rest of the time all I saw were clouds and fog.
 
I don't know how anyone can say the sky is bluest in Seattle when you can't even see the frickin sky!

Maybe not, but the grass really is greener.

Thaaaaat's not grass, it's moss.
