[size=18]I love this game! Opening kickoff and boom! 92 yard touchdown return! Got my soju, got my pizza, got my smokes, got my Alienware, taking the day off work, watching the game being watched by 2 Billion brother!!! Woooooohhhhh!!!! I love life, I love football and I love this game brother!! God bless the greatest country in the world. Y'll hate us on the boards, y'all say, "Yankee go home, gringo go home, miguk go home" but when the "shaittteola" hits the fan, who ya gonna call? Europe sat on their hands while Serbia slaughtered thousands. France, GB, ya'll did nada amigo. Uncle Sam the man comes in and does the dishes. Now ya'll hate us because of Iraq and Afghanistan. Point taken. But show some love as you are chowing down on your Big Macs, Burger King, Pizza hut, NY yankees ball cap wearing, Hollywood movie watching, IPod buying haters. Give us a freakin break dudes. Where would you all be without the USA? You'd be speaking German or Japanese watching black and white tv's!!!

uhhh, you must be high on Budweiser...I'll forgive you. Got to admit, watching the Road to the Superbowl,(NFL Films), being an NFL-loving Canuck, made me want to strap on a helmet and go crack someone. Put the NFL in the top 10 reason to be proud to be 'Merican. Sometimes, you really, really rock.

I got all teary-eyed watching Prince sing "Purple Rain" in the rain.

I love football and played in high school but 2 billion?? On the radio they said 1 billion but I would say it's watched in the U.S. and Canada and a handful of people in other countries. I'd say 500 million tops.

I'm an NFL fan, but I think that Billion viewer estimate is BS. How did they get that number?

It's Potential viewers. The games on in China? Oh, then 2 billion people could be watching. Hardly.

Most Americans know that football is rather esoteric. We just don't care.

What difference does it make? If only ten people were watching, I'd be one of them.

I liked how Prince covered a Foo Fighters song, since the Foo Fighters regularly cover Prince songs. I usually don't enjoy the half time show, but this one was pretty cool.
