Umm, not this Canadian.

I've watched the Superbowl religiously for decades and think it's gotten worse every year for the extra-curricular nonsense -- more especially since the mid-90's. I want to watch the game, not the half time show, the tailgating parties, the never ending commentary, the endless scans of the crowd, etc. I certainly don't care about the commercials.

The Superbowl has become the supporting player to everything else, it's ridiculous.

Suffice it to say, I don't watch the commercials, or the half time shows or other such nonsense. But I certainly watch and enjoy the game, the same as I do during the Grey Cup game.
