First signs of hope, crushed! That’s true. Forgot how much I dislike the cbs crew. Who is MVP? ---

We could be on track for a shut out. Would that be a record? It’s all over. Even Joe Montana couldn’t come back from 36-0. Seattle has figured out how to shut down Denver’s offense. Denver’s defense is ok. not great. ---

How much did Chrysler pay for makeup on Bob Dylan’s face? He looks about 30 years younger than the last time I saw him. ---

Great sportsmanship on the part of the Denver defender who gave Kearse a congratulatory pat on the butt just before he scored. ---

Why am I still watching? Jesus Christ. That botched snap on the first play killed it for Denver. They were all rattled, continued to make mistakes, and never recovered enough to get their focus back. ---

The good news: Denver has not yet matched its historic collapse in SB XXIV. The bad news: There is more than a quarter left to play. ---

I just heard some loud cheering and clapping from across the courtyard. What can possibly have just happened? Edit: oh, ok. “Whooooo”, even.
