Super Bowl - How to Watch Free

[Luke]

Tonight's Super Bowl starts at 6:30pm ET. If you don't have NBC, there are two apps you can watch it on free... Yahoo Sports App and NFL Mobile App. We downloaded the NFL Mobile App on the tablet and it works. Just wanted to pass that along in case you want to see it.

Hard pass... I'll get the good parts in the morning online (the commercials)

The Scarlette Johanson/Colin Jost Alexa commercial has been playing on Hulu for a week and it's hilarious.

Or watch it on free to air tv here in Australia!

He's kinda cute -- the one that got away.

[Slim Cognito]

I love the face he makes when Alexa starts playing music.

That was an exciting game! Rams pulled it out at the end. 23-20 RAMS.

Cooper Kupp is beautiful (and the MVP!), he and Matthew Stafford did a great job together.

We got free Peacock when we switched to Xfinity Mobile from Verizon for phone service. Don't know if that is standard or was a promotion at the time.

I was reading some of the Twitter posters I follow during the Super Bowl. I was curious about how they would view the halftime performance. They seemed to love it, but it was also pointed out that it especially appealed to the GenXers (roughly those born in 1965-1980, i.e. ages 41-57).

So I looked at a list of who has performed at Super Bowl halftime shows. Until the early 1990s, it was mostly marching bands, etc. Not big name performers. That changed in Jan 1993 when Michael Jackson performed.

A list of this year's songs and when they were released -

"The Next Episode" (Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg) - 2000
"California Love" (Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg) - 1995
"In Da Club" (50 Cent) - 2003
"Family Affair" (Mary J. Blige) - 2001
"No More Drama" (Mary J. Blige) - 2001
"M.A.A.D City" (Kendrick Lamar) - 2012
"Alright" (Kendrick Lamar) - 2015
"Forgot About Dre" (Eminem) - 2000
"Lose Yourself" (Eminem) - 2002
"Still D.R.E." (Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg) - 1999

So the bulk of the songs - 7 of them - were recorded in 1999-2003. The GenXers would have ranged in age of 18-38 during that time period. Yeah, I can see why these songs especially appealed to them.

Go go go
Go shorty
It's your birfday
We're gonna party
Like it's your birfday
We'll drink Bicardi
Like it's your birfday
And we don't give a fuck
It's not your birfday
You'll find me in the club ...

Boomer, not a GenXer, but like this song. The rest of his catalog not so much.

I think Salma and Arnold won Best Commerical.

Thanks, John! Saw the back half of that ad but it was on the tablet and didn't see it was Arnold. Loved little Pegasus, was going to ask Gregg if Pegasus has joined the 699th.

Here's a compilation of all the Super Bowl ads (minus movies and streaming services so it could be posted on YouTube).
