We have  finished our first episode! While we know there are still some growing pains to take care of, we think we have that fixed for next week. Please enjoy the discussion! MP3 version on our Episodes page.

Intro/Outro Music: Can I Be A Star by Burnshee Thornside.

Corrections: The 49er's-Broncos score was 55-10. Big Ben did not injure his spleen, he ruptured a blood vessel. NBC aired the Superbowl this year, not Fox. Miller was the beer company running the 1-second ads, not Coors. Chike Okeafor is from Purdue, not Cal.

   Well, that's an engaging diversion, if you're not pressed for time.
   You mention how bad halftime used to be, but if you go way back to the very first Superbowl (1966? I'm old enough to remember watching it, which is also old enough to be fuzzy on the exact year), there was an impressive display that burned itself into my ~10yr old mind: two guys representing the NFL & AFL (did you know there was once an AFL?) burst out of giant papier-mache footballs on rocket packs(!) and met up in the air to shake hands. That was classy, and awesome (or as we said back then, really neat).

   I've been "reading" Dom for a while now (SGD's FTW), but to now have a voice to accompany the text... I'm not sure if I should call that "One more off the Bucket List" or be worried enough to increase the therapy... Think I've got to snip out "Spleeeeen!!!" so I can listen to it in a loop... Thanks for 40 minutes of good times guys!

   A "stuff" segment would be excellent. Or one that starts with a C...

     What topic starting with C are you thinking of? (although a show about Comments would be fun.)

     We will probably never run out of topics so I don't see "stuff" coming up very soon.

    Really enjoyed the show. Hope you keep on makin more awesome episodes.

    If you ever need a new topic, I bet you guys could just open a dictionary and randomly select a word under 'S' and it would be great. XD

    I realize I'm a bit late, but Bon Jovi doesn't own the SaberCats, he owns the Philadelphia Soul.

    Stumbled on your site quite by accident, I'm glad I did. I'm always on the lookout for a new football resource and your site really fit the bill

    thanks,
