PrintNBC will be carrying the Super Bowl this year, which means Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth during the actual game and Bob Costas, Dan Patrick, Tony Dungy and a host of others for the pregame. And what a pregame it will be. With kickoff scheduled for 6:30 Eastern, the pregame coverage will start at noon with Costas reporting live from downtown Indianapolis. Are you ready for 6 and a half hours of pregame?
For a complete run down of the NBC Super Bowl televised schedule check out this Sports Illustrated article detailing everything. Some highlights will include player interviews, Rodney Harrison going inside the Patriots, a look back at David Tyree's pin the ball to his helmet catch, Packers QB Aaron Rodgers will be a guest analyst, Matt Lauer interviewing the President, Costas interviewing Madonna, and Nick Cannon working the red carpet. Oh joy.

I'm ready for six and a half hours of pregame.
But I’ll be watching my amount whiskey get lower, not Bob Costas.

For only the second time ever, I'm skipping this game.
And the first time was last year’s All-Hate Super Bowl. There’s just nothing interesting about this game to me…
Can't watch it.
I’ll be working that day. At the Super Bowl. Eat your hearts out people!
Don't really care

Does Puppy Bowl count?
‘cause I’ll be pre-gaming and post-gaming that.
Love the Puppy Bowl.

First Super Bowl I can remember that I don't care about.
I dislike both teams. Personally, I’m hoping for an OT game where the Giants take the opening kickoff down to the 30 and kick a FG, then Tom Brady throws a TD on the ensuing drive. That way there will be a lot of pissing and moaning regarding who actually won the championship. That would be my ideal Super Bowl this year.
Would like something like this
with Brady losing though, and some enraging calls by the officials so Pats fans can complain LONG into the offseason

I'll tune in early
but if they decide to spend time talking about tebow this, rodgers that for no reason at all, might as well tune out.
if it’s anything like one year ago, I’ll have ESPN pregame and NFL network game feed. spared me of what was more likely than not buck slobbering over rodgers.

Maybe 5-10 minutes
Can only stand so much about the Pats super-human TEs and Tom terrific. Giants pass rush…blah.
Going skiing cause it’s probably the least crowded day, then headed to a friends place to watch, drink, and hit their hot tub in snowy Denver.

Nope, because I'll be working
I wouldn’t watch it anyways regardless, only interested in the action on the field

Allow me to be the voice of dissent.
It’s the last freaking football game of the year. Of course I’ll be watching. It’s my last “fix” until the draft in April.
Above all; keep 'em guessing, never let them lose their sense of confusion.
Yeah I agree and, I can only speak for myself but, I'd rather hear the announcers slobbering over Brady and Eli than anything involving the Packers and/or Ben Roethlisberger.
I couldn’t stand Joe Buck’s non-discreet lovefest towards the Packers and Aaron Rodgers so I didn’t even watch 5 minutes of the game. But this year I can at least tolerate it lol

I’m gonna be at a party, so this will be background noise until the game starts. I don’t really get into pre-game garbage, it’s the same thing said over and over again by different players or analysts, all rumble, rumble, rumble on who will win and why, to be honest I really can’t stand the nonsense, it’s way too boring, I mean I get more excited picking out my socks in the morning.

XIII-2?
It’s XIII with improved development and more free-flow story. Plus, you get monster taming/infusing, which is pretty cool as your third party member. And by “it’s XIII” I mean they never did tone down the early-onset drama and epic-ness.
So, it’ll get a playthrough at least, and maybe some post-play/second playthroughs depending.

I basically can't/don't watch ESPN after the conference championships through the Superbowl
It is so repetitious that I cannot handle it and I really like football. I couldn’t do it even when the Bears were in the SB. I really dislike the lead up to the game. It is boring and they find stories where there are none.
Where the white women at?
