Just gonna throw this out there. Anyone else feel like the superbowl is kind of overblown? I'm not saying it's not a big game, I just think many aspects of it are exaggerated and are kind of rediculous if you really think about it.
It's absurd and really just a corporate holiday. I used to enjoy the social events/parties surrounding it, but there are better ways to arrange those than shitwit sportsball.

They say that six million people watch it on TV every year but I find that hard to believe. Also they claimed that Joe Burrow threw for six million passing yards and it's just mathematically impossible to do that within the minutes of a single game.
This one is pretty funny, especially if we consider the usual responses to the FQ (footballer question):
(i) Football players are unusually smart; statistically, they are smarter by an entire standard deviation (based on a study of footballers at a footballer-only school in football town, NY, performed by a footballer).
(ii) Football players have been historically targeted by other groups, which explains their excess work ethic and strict in-group favoritism (this one is funny because football players are on teams, and this explanation is just describing what teams do, by definition).
