Who will win the "Big Game"?

Who are Jared, Aaron, and DeSean rooting for?

Rams (Aaron), Bengals (Jared and DeSean).

Why is Aaron rooting for former NFC North rival Matthew Stanford to have as many Super Bowl victories as him?

Also, doesn't DeSean get a ring?

The Rams would have 150 rings to distribute as they please. Sounds like it's not uncommon for traded players to get a ring. DeSean played seven games as a Ram this year. If he gets a ring, I guess that's cool but I doubt he'd have it visible in the background on any future Zoom interviews.

This quote probably got back to A-Rod. Burrow thinks A-Rod is the best QB.

I'm for the Bengals. Their fans have waited a while. Cal has won a Rose Bowl more recently than the Bengals have won a Super Bowl.

As I pointed out in another thread:

The Howard Stern Show has 1 staffer who is an Eagles fan.

One staffer from Kansas, who is a diehard Kansas City Chiefs fan -- who cried before Patrick Mahomes -- who married a diehard Eagles fan and thus became a diehard Eagles fan, too, naming their firstborn son "Carson."

And there is J.D. Harmeyer, diehard Cincinnati Bengals fan.

Could 3 times be the charm?

So f’ng pumped. https://t.co/V8nFnphYhP

Full vaccination rates.

Hamilton County: 60.22% (57.45% state)

LA County: 71.22% (70.36% state)

From this standpoint, I give the Rams the slight edge. Though Hamilton County is low, it is at least better than Ohio's embarrassing state average.

Quote:

Fans will be asked to show vaccine proof and ID cards when entering the stadium, organizers said.

Attendees aged 5 and older must provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative PCR test taken within 48 hours, or a negative antigen rapid test taken within 24 hours of the big game.

ps. Butte County: 50.20%

Why do do you care?

Don't have a strong rooting interest in either team so just exploring second and third tier (ie, random) reasons to root for either team's fan base.

I'm sorry, NV, I should have kept that post out of this thread.

Year of the tiger…

Brands that will win if their QB wins.

Matthew Stafford: Nike, PepsiCo, Fanatics, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Ford Motor Co., Panini and St. Joe's Hospital.

Joe Burrows: Nike, Lowe's, Bose, Nerf, Fanatics, Buffalo Wild Wings and Lordstown Motors.

Me too. What puts me in quite the pickle is that I also like the Rams helmets. I'm in a quandary today. Better for me I guess to forget about the Super Bore Bowl and enjoy a beautiful Sunday.

Big C, everyone on here, including you, know that Big C will be watching at 3:30. Their offenses should make this entertaining. Plenty of time to enjoy the day before then. Perfect game time for west coast.

No worries, and go Cincinnati!!

Torn on this. Going for the Rams but won't be crushed if they lose. But I plan on winning the game day spread. Homemade radiatori pasta and Sunday gravy. And who could forget the onion dip?

Always got you covered, Bearister and I'm not just puttanesca you on.

Hekker in his intro: THE Oregon State University.

(He needs to be taken down for that comment.)

Can Jordan!

Heard a lot of high schools and bogus school names in the intros, so it's not just Aaron who trolls fans.

This is Michelle Tafoya's final game for those who don't know.

She'll probably become a (conservative) political pundit.

Why is the Rock talking so much? I think I'm going to get an oil change and come back before kickoff.

Good lord, can we kick it off please?

The Rock bugs me. Cung Le could take him. Still.

Stafford playing from behind = Carr playing from behind. So…

Bengals need to score a couple early.

She got a raw deal…

Yeah, no. Turned it on for two minutes at around 4:00 to find out which teams helmets my kids like best, as animal-mimic helmets are my favorite (after any Cal helmet). Son went for Bengals, daughter went for Rams. I think I liked the older Rams helmets better. (What's up with the space between the horns? Is that like "modern art" or something?) Anyway, my kids are now using the TV now to play on the PS4.

"Oh, I just watch it for the commercials!" Millions of Americans actually say that! That's when you know an event is a dud and you are a boring sheep.

Plus, they never did Jared Goff dirty.

Odell. Gone.
