I just think the sport is really neat.

The ads are pretty overkill even compared to what I see here in Europe during the soccer world cup, and yeah athletes are paid ridiculous amounts, but at the end of the day it's a lot of fun to watch, at least for me. It's a battle of both wits and raw athleticism between people pushing the limits of what the human body can do. That's super cool, and all the story lines that arise or crumble from the competition are immensely entertaining to follow.

When you get down to it capitalism tarnishes everything anyway, a lot of entertainment media is very much just vehicles to sell even more shit, but they can still be enjoyable in and of themselves.

This is UnpopularOpinion, not UnpopularFacts.

I'd argue that it also leads to an enormous amount of food being tossed out and wasted. Granted the only reason that's in mind is because I'm going to be going dumpster diving lately to try and capitalize.

At least it brought us the Puppy Bowl. Which is also full of ads, but hey, puppies.

It’s true.

At some point, though, you just let it go. It’s just easier that way. Watch it, don’t, like it, don’t, none of that changes what it is. And, presuming CTEs still wipe out 90% of players in the future, it won’t be around forever.

Let people enjoy things. You don't have to engage with it if you don't want to.

They didn't get any of my money. I watched the game for free and got away with it.

I watched the Nickelodeon one and absolutely enjoyed all the zingers from Tom Kenny as SpongeBob.

It's fun.

Beyond the ads football is getting so slow, even regular season games. I don't remember it taking this long to get through a game as it does now.

My family and I choose not to celebrate Suberbowl anymore. We don't really sports in the house and, our close friends don't sports either.

Greatest argument for it is that it's an incredible display and even celebration of some truly awe inspiring and extreme feats that human bodies are capable of. I've never been able to get into favorite teams or anything, but every time I'm around somewhere a good football team/game is on, dang if I don't see some incredible things.

but I also get to eat too much food and have "an excuse"

There's a reason I'm not watching it right now.

I don't mind people not liking sports the same way I'm happy if someone enjoys Post Malone music or Woody Allen movies even though they're terrible to me. I do get annoyed with people who make not liking sports a huge part of their personality though. Those who hear a conversation between others who are interested in a game and just have roll their eyes and make a comment involving the word, "sports ball".

Yes?
