    Sorry for the counter-programming Argotom, but CFL Fans in Toronto decided this year that if you can't beat them at least mock them a little bit.

    Thus we are hosting a Superb Owl American Finals Match viewing party to which you are all invited: https://www.facebook.com/events/1550217715096399/.

    Really good game. I love it when teams break out crazy trick plays, and was not disappointed today. (Never mind the ridiculous amount of offense and close score, which helped!)

    It was a fantastic game that had everything - tons of offense, trick plays.
    What I like the most was the lack of penalties. Please take note Randy Ambrosie, ease off on the pass interference and holding calls, scrap the challenges and "let em play"

    Hell of a Super Bowl -- anyone who missed it on purpose deprived themselves of a tremendously entertaining sporting event.

    Both teams ran 71 plays from scrimmage, 142 in total for 1,151 yards total. That's how football can be played when teams commit to high-tempo, aggressive offensive play. It drives me crazy when CFL games end with each team around 45-50 offensive plays, which happens more often than you'd think. 60-65 should be the goal, IMO.

    I am glad some of you enjoyed the SB
    I watched an awesome game too.....the Scotties Championship with Jenn Jones winning her 6th time.

    The place was packed in Penticton BC.
    Also at the same time men's Alberta provincial final was shown.
    So there was plenty of things on TV and unlike some here will tell you or across the media the world has not stopped.
    Good on the curling people to also realize.

    CFL should really go to a rolling clock like the NFL. The stoppages have noticeably gotten longer the last few years.
    Superbowl LII was a very entertaining game, tbh much more so than the Grey Cup last year.

    Whenever I attend a Super Bowl party, honestly it is just too social. Kids running around, most adults there are watching their only football game of the year, talking over the game about whatever. Always takes away from the game.

    I understand completely. Sometimes it's almost impossible to concentrate on the game without being looked at as rude. I don't mind when my team isn't in it, but last year I had to lay some ground rules for the Grey Cup ahead of time.

    For sure. I always have friends over for the Grey Cup. My Argo room has a capacity of 5. Like you, I lay strict ground rules before kickoff.
