1. Clear as mud. 2. No one cares, drops some games. 3. Invoke the Harryo Hinderance Handoff and expect teams to finish with odd numbers of games and let fans select the “playoff teams.”
Voting will also help marketing see some teams have zero fan base, and League is kinda in trouble.

Shocked, shocked I tell you.

Per the report, L.A. and Dallas “could be two potential options.” The bubble would be implemented after the wild-card round.

By then the only two teams left would be Dallas and the FUDeans, everyone else will be out with Covid.

Jerry Springer Jones running the whole show.....gotta prop us his pet project in Inglewood, and by default the deadbeat spenis who he allowed the option out of SD in order to be able to get his windfall project approved with as little resistance as possible. National Fixed League.

With the Jets release of 3 time Pro Bowl, 2x All Pro Le'von Bell.....along with WR Antonio Brown no team status....

Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown combined for 3,479 yards of offense and 20 touchdowns for the Steelers in 2017 and were both named First team All-Pro and to the Pro Bowl.

Two of the most dynamic offensive players from the Steelers, both now without teams.

Money and ego. Owners have it as bad.
They just don't release, and the game is worse because of that.

Chiefs looking for an edge. If he can be tapped, it's another Super Bowl. If not, they know you have to take risks to win.

Chuggers have an injured running back. "We don't need a potential great RB...or safety...or receiver..... We're happy with our Justin Jackson."
And nothing is learned about creating excitement in the Los Angeles market.

Who thinks the teams vote for another extension?
I'd say many teams want that $4.3 million for use in 2021
jerrah controls everything and he can wait for his huge windfall, no matter what happens it's his own pocketbook's best interest to do whateverit takes to make sure Kroenke and spenisman succeed.....including bribing officials or otherwise gaming the system. That dude is pure evil.

I'm ok with more Manning's. But what I wonder is what ever happened to Phillips little brother Steven Rivers?
changed his name to Stefano Rios and is starring in Lucha Libre in Mexico City. On a more serious note, I have no idea.

Fans or no fans there will be a Super Bowl halftime show. Corporation sponsor Pepsi.
I like AC/DC but Good Lord, they're too damn old. the Corporate Game.


AC/DC already has been linked to the performance, and for good reason. Someone associated with the band and/or its label surely forked over plenty of dollars to the NFL to recently help promote the band’s new album, and it’s become clear in recent years that the league doesn’t hire a band as much as partner with it, reportedly getting a piece of record sales or concert revenues in exchange for giving the artist a crack at the biggest stage in all of music.

An inflatable Deano mannequin and an exploding finish.

If you got an owner and you want him gone
But you ain't got the guts
He keeps naggin' at you years and days
Enough to drive ya nuts
Pick up the phone
Leave Spanos alone
It's time you made a stand
For a fee
I'm happy to be
Your back door fan

Last year's Super Bowl median viewing age was 49.1. They gotta get older acts to fit that audience.

49.1 years old is Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam and 90s music. AC/DC is my age group, geriatric rockers living in nursing homes.

Couple of thoughts:
I enjoy and use AC/DC: Their anthems are a mainstay of my "Driving Music" to stay awake
when driving through an Idaho snowstorm at 3am. :)

There have been a lot of line-up changes...maybe too many for casual fans to get excited about
a Super Bowl performance...but maybe as long as Angus Young is still there, in schoolboy uni, it works. :p

I can't tell how serious the Super Bowl speculation is...they have an album about to drop,
so obviously the band has a lot of motivation...

The new single is traditional AC/DC...the groove is very familiar...
if you like previous AC/DC stuff, you'll probably like Shot in the Dark.

I ask again, how can a Youtube video audio track sound 800 times better than a TV digital sound of a musical group every damn year at the Super Bowl? HDTV, surround sound, etc. still terrible. It ruins it for us without high quality hearing aids and older megaphones.

There have only been two real changes: Brian Johnson replaced Bon Scott back in 1980, and Malcolm Young retired due to dementia and was replaced by their nephew Stevie Young. Brian Johnson briefly left the band a few years ago but is back (in black).
