no. no no nooooo
I am not watching the football game. Yes I know it's the superbowl, yes I know it's the Seahawks yes I live in the greater Seattle area, but no. The answer is no.
Why? Out of respect for the team. You think I'm joking, don't you? You think I'm being absurd that can't possible be respect for the hard work in question. Yes it is. I respect what they've done, but I'm not interested. My lack of interest is independent of the job they do on the field. I don't want to be the guy who comes in at the very end and then roots for my home team. No. I'm glad they are winning, but I wouldn't have spent the time to watch (let along *go* to) one of their regular season games so I have no right to be a fan now. I wasn't a fan then and I'm technically not a fan now. So I likely won't know who won until morning. Yes it really is that bad.
I have respect for what they do, enough not to watch them do it.

Nah, its cool... we didn't win, but the commercials WERE the best part... again...
It's true, hardcore fans hate bandwagon jumpers. That said, any fan welcomes someone else helping to root with them -- even if they're not there sweating bullets the whole season long.
Not a great game (on either side) and the ads were pretty weak, too. You missed nothing.
