Well we can all agree that Superbowl 47 wasnt as good as advertised but by the looks of it Falcons would have made this game interesting even if i wasnt a fan. I am saying this from an outside view. It seems that our recent super bowls are played by the most popular teams
Colin Kaepernick is comparable Jeremy Lin from the NBA, what i mean by that is the nfl had their rise from nothing story and cashed in on it. Similar to Mr. Lin again he has had a less than stellar sophmore season and Colin cant seem to rise above once more in the super bowl stage. Grant it yes hes a rookie and its hard but that doesnt give the veterans a pass either.
I just wanted to air out my thoughts on the NFL as a whole and not just as a single team fan _________________

Kaepernick is a 2nd year player.
And i don't really get what you are asking. _________________

its not really a question just airing some of my feelings out there. NFL just capitilizes on their storylines. Rise from nothing star vs retiring superstar _________________

Yes, because they feed on storylines and benefit from them. Everyone i know was turning the channel during the super bow because it was a sort of blowout 1st. Which hurts financial because viewers are going away, then all of a sudden lights go out. And this thing turns into a game. Viewers come back all is saved right?
Shouldnt the biggest stage of them all have the best renevations? _________________
