Even though I really hope that both teams lose today I will probably watch the game simply because it's on. Shame on me!

Poor call.

They had 3 chances to run it 1 yard.

One former New England Patriots standout will not be watching Sunday's Super Bowl. But there's a worthy reason for that.

Aaron Hernandez, currently incarcerated and in the middle of a murder trial in the death of Odin Lloyd, will not be permitted to watch Super Bowl XLIX, featuring his former Patriots team against the Seattle Seahawks.

[Related: Grading the best and worst Super Bowl XLIX commercials]

Bristol County Sheriff Tom Hodgson told ABC News that Hernandez, who remains in the same solitary confinement cell in the Special Management Unit in the jail at North Dartmouth, Mass., that he was brought to after his arrest in June 2013, will not be able to watch television — and that includes Sunday's game.

"His classification has not changed since the last time he was here," Hodgson said. "He remains under the same restrictions that he was last time he was here."

Interestingly, the jury will be allowed to watch the game — something the judge overseeing the case allowed — but the man on trial, Hernandez, will not.

It's a fascinating bit of trivia, but Hernandez was the last recepient of a Tom Brady touchdown pass in a Super Bowl, early in the third quarter of the eventual loss to the New York Giants in XLVI.

I'm not a fan of either team but was plugging for the Seahawks.

Worse call of their season when it counted most.

Big running back with legs like tree trunks, gained 4 yards on the previous play; one yard from winning it all after a miraculous catch...Bubba ya run the ball. Also given Wilson got picked two weeks ago three times trying to thread the needle. Bad call.

But it was the most exciting last few minutes of SB football since the Bucs beat the Titans. Titans coming up short 1/2 yard when the clock ran out.

I've been reflecting on it.

Ballsy call when Seattle went for 6 points with 6 seconds remaining in the first half instead of 3 - success!

Ballsy call going for the pass from the one yard line at the end - backfire!

I lost 5 bucks on the Seahawks, not that I'm a big fan of either team.

This game shouldn't be judged by one play, but it will.

THE most un-charming, un-likeable band of thugs since Ray Lewis' Ravens. I was pulling for Pats :-)

Worse call of their season when it counted most.

Big running back with legs like tree trunks, gained 4 yards on the previous play; one yard from winning it all after a miraculous catch...Bubba ya run the ball. Also given Wilson got picked two weeks ago three times trying to thread the needle. Bad call.

Q: Was it Pete Carrol's hubris that did the Seahawks in? Dunno about how bad a call most observers say it is. Hadn't Pete Carrol has been right EVERY single time before this in the playoffs?

In this game he eschewed the FG for gambling for the TD at the end of the first half. Nobody credited him there. Shoulda been 14-10, Pats at the half. Instead, Seattle gained momentum that carried them thru the 3rd quarter, building what seemed to be an insurmountable 10-point lead.

Surely a single yard for the GW TD from big ol' Bubba was a foregone conclusion...OR was it? The Pats were going to be collapsing the box in desperation. Was there was a chance for negative yardage? OR, does Lynch and the O-Line steamroll the Pats? We'll never know.

Carroll took the approach he always takes -- the unconventional. It's how he rolls. Taking candy from a baby with a surprise quick slant. Wilson was deadly all day and would be the MVP. Ooops, the route got jumped by a guy who made the play of his life.

Versus the Pack, Carroll gambling and won the game on that fake FG that turned into an easy TD; punted the ball to the Pack with two and a half minutes left, gambling the Hawlks would get the ball back; rolled the dice and recovered the ball on that fluke onsides kick; went for the 2-point conversion, and got it. That he got second-guessed (even by his own players) on his play-calling is wrong. Without Carrol's dice-rolling, Seattle isn't anyway near this Super Bowl. The Pack are.

But it was the most exciting last few minutes of SB football since the Bucs beat the Titans. Titans coming up short 1/2 yard when the clock ran out.

That was a good game too. Pretty wild. This one was as wild as can be. Based on multiple story-lines, this was a couple of notches more exciting than the Giants win vs. the Jim Kelley-led Bills and that missed FG back in '91.

Yup, everyone forgets what a momentum-changer that was. AND huge balloon-deflater of Patriot confidence. Seattle went on to dominate the 3rd quarter, and half the 4th...

The elephant in the room: The vaunted Seattle defense got picked apart by Brady for TWO TDs with 7:00 to go in the game and lost the game.

I have a whole bunch of stuff on the DVR so I was just going thru it looking to clean some things up, it's about 85% full.

He should have brought in all his Tight Ends in a stacked running formation to give the Patriots something to think about. Then he has the option of throwing or running if it looks like one of the TEs would be uncovered.

You'd have made a great Offensive Cordinator ;-) No way they'd have stopped that...along with Wilson faking the hand-off on that play, then rolling left. Two unstoppable options right there.

I hear ya. Hate the hype. The over the top media jock-sniffing. Chicks moderating NFL panels. Half time circus. The over-analysis of minutia I try not to let that nonsense ruin the game for me.

Dunno about "just another game" -- depends on the match up. If there are exceptional teams playing, there is some sort of intrigue, as in the Pats vs. Hawks or even the Pack vs. Hawks game. Usually I give the Championship games, or SB a quarter to a half to intrigue me, then bail out. Any time you've got the best cerebral QBs like Brady and Rodgers going up against a supposed all-time great defense, it's like two titanic heavyweights clashing.

The first one, second one or both?

Did you watch many of the episodes? It all boiled down to in the end that man hasn't quite figured out yet that history will repeat itself if you fail to learn from it. (Kinda like our country and it running down the path of Socialism/Fascism/Communism when history has shown it to be a massive phucking failure).

The first BSG was straight forward. The newer one if you missed one episode you could have missed all the hints and twists.

I was surprised the new Baltar was a metrosexual human who preyed on Cylon women.

Did you ever watch Babylon 5?

That one was the same way if you missed certain episodes you would miss little clues that would make you scratch your head later. The other problem was it didn't come out in chronological order the first 2 movies were switched around. All in all it was a good series (5 years) and can be found for cheap on DVD now.
