What a steaming pile of dung this has been. If Seattle can put in in the endzone on their next drive, this one is over.

Oh, so Bruno Mars really does only have one song.

Oh, and I would absolutely have taken a 15 minute drum solo.

The one with Terry Crews and the Muppets? Oh yeah.

And who would have thought the Broncos would be held scoreless in the first half? (Not me!)

I totally called it that the prop bet on if at least one member of Red Hot Chili Peppers would be shirtless would be easy money.

Also, they really should have changed the lyrics to “What I want is to hug and kiss you.”

I dislike the RHCPs more than any other band I’ve disliked. Well, except for Flea…Flea is perfect.

Bruno Mars and the Chilli Peppers together? The apocalypse is upon us.

BTW, Justin Bieber plays drums much better than BM.

Glad that’s over.

WTH was up with that Geico ad?

They’re an odd band. I think I love them as individual musicians (especially Flea, Frusciante, and I’ll take Irons or Smith on the drums), but I could never get into them as a band. I used to live in a region (Hungary) where there seemed to be a lot of bands who wanted to ape the RHCP funk-rock sound and it was horrible to me, as no one can do that convincingly except RHCP, and even then, I can only take so much of it.

Anyhow, go Seahawks! I’m loving this game so far.

Is anybody tracking the prop bets? I looked up the one for first score being safety by the Hags, and $100 would win you $4000.

The non interference call on Denver’s last drive of the half was a back breaker.

I wondered if anybody else would recall that Simpsons episode. “Oh, yeah, that really is better. Now it’s something everybody can enjoy.”

Wow! The second half last year started exactly the same way. Now the Broncos need a blackout.
