Well, here we go...A couple of pregame notes:

On last night's Saturday Night Life, cast member / KC native Heidi Gardner was rocking a Mahomes jersey during a sketch about Super Bowl parties.

Up in Canada, CBC-TV's national newscast Friday had a long feature interview with lineman Laurence Duvernay-Tardif from Montreal. Of course, he took this year off to serve in a long-term care home.

And as long as we're talking about doing good works, props to Russell Wilson for winning this year's Walter Payton Man Of The Year Award !

er..."Saturday Night LIVE"

I’m ready!❤️💛 sick of hearing about Brady

"GOAT - It's What's For Dinner"

Worst state for Covid!

Speaking of dinner, I'm curious about what's in everybody's Super Bowl spread.

Here it's duck wings, nachos, and the usual munchies.

Wow!

At the risk of being called a dirty Commie, I always thought that America The Beautiful makes a better national anthem. Easier to sing, too.

I love the poet Amanda Gorman

GAME TIME

Me too, but I can't wait until the Internet parodies start popping up.

Three and out to start the game !

I just want Tom Brady to lose. Make it happen, AFC West bros

Another 3 and out

Love the gal ref💃

First on the board !

Hit Hill in the face lol. That was a dime from Mahomes.

To many 🤲🏼

Not him again

HELLUVA GOAL LINE STOP !

You guys are getting kind of screwed by penalties so far.

We are holding

So are they.

Better

Yeah Russ

Chiefs killing themselves with the penalties

Falling apart

Should never be in their home field

At least the Chiefs get the second half kickoff. Came from behind last year...it CAN be done. Need to show a lot more poise though, especially on defense.

Tom Brady, Duke basketball and Yankees baseball can all cohabitate a section of hell with the refs, officials and umpires that enabled them, imo.

@approxinfinity Good thing one or two of them won't make the postseason this year

So what's everybody's pick for best SB halftime show?

@nwhawkfan Janet Jackson's wardrobe? Or Tom Petty or Gloria Estefan.

Andy and Patrick need to get their heads in the game. Not out of this, but that first half was horrific.

Up With People, and Al Hirt ! (kidding)

They all tend to blur together after a while, but Prince's show knocked me out. Springsteen was pretty good too. More recently, Bruno Mars.

Wolp. Let's go offense.

Trading field goals for touchdowns. Not a recipe for success

I thought Gaga was good

I'm sad about this game, thought it would pick me up from the sad state of Jayhawks

That makeshift O line just can't stop these guys

To think Brady got all that small business loan bucks, millions, and bought a yacht.

Glad that I stayed at home to watch the game, instead of shelling out 25-30 bucks cover charge to get into a bar today. Only 25 percent capacity allowed here, so the taverns/restaurants are charging whatever they can get away with.

Ballgame

Wouldn't want to be an advertiser who has a 4th quarter commercial this year

Hmm...didn't know Springsteen played Lebanon, Kansas

Aka the hometown of one FarmerJayhawk! Everyone go visit. Then head to town and have the noon special at Ladow’s Cafe. More food than you can eat for $3.99. Lori’s cobbler is TO DIE FOR

Been to the monument once and took some pictures, but it was real late at night on my way to Denver. I'll have to spend a little more time there on my next trip back to KS.

Tough finish to a great season.

Thanks everybody for hanging in there. See you on the other threads.

Got to the big dance. Enjoyed the Kansas/Springsteen commercial and that was about it (kind of corny, but any time KS gets a shout-out, I'm good with it).

Pretty awful game. It hurts (F Brady), but I'm sure the KC players feel worse than we do. I sacrificed a few hours of my time, made a bunch of food for the game, enjoyed the season, felt confident, but it's not like I trained or put my ass on the line every day (although, I probably could've done a better job at left guard even after eating my nachos, meatballs, pigs in a blanket, guacamole, cheese dip, rye bread party pizzas, veggies and dip, and at least six pack of local Freestate beer).

I didn't have a snack plan for the second half. Wasn't expecting to get knocked on my heels and lose my appetite, so maybe I should have done more... I'll try harder next season!

@FarmerJayhawk lol snowy!

@Crimsonorblue22 very! Got 5 more inches this weekend! It’s good. We really needed the moisture for the wheat.

@DanR if u ate all that u might be able to help us on the O line! Mahomes was running for his life! Damn flags! To many injuries. 🤮 suck they had a home advantage.

@Crimsonorblue22 The stats guys say that Mahomes ran 497 yards in the game last night on his scrambles and sacks. And much of that was going backward or sideways. On a toe needing surgery.

Time to trade for disgruntled Brown from Ravens (wants to move to left side) and draft well. Can't have Pat literally running for his life again.

Anyway, wife and I are trying to find the bright side from last night. So far, 2 have been identified: no need to waste recording space on the DVR or time rewatching the game, and all the money saved on t-shirts, hats, cups, and posters.....

If BB was more fun this year it would be easier to find an outlet for sports fandom!

If you don't have a healthy Mahomes (and a couple people protecting him, it's gonna be an "L") The defense is not good. And on top of not being good, had their heads up their butts most of the night. We can never rely on our defense to win games.

@nuleafjhawk they got 2 three and outs to start the game. When Mahomes and Co couldn't put points on the board I think it was a kick in the teeth.
