Best commercial so far Dodge Ram Goldilocks?

EDIT: A commercial for Ontario, Canada? that's, uh, weird?

Seal as a seal was my favorite.

 

[HisIceness]

Well, it looks like the Philadelphia police scanner is going to be a must-listen tonight.

Mahomes sack and fumble

god this is a UGA-TCU level ass beating

 

[cptjeff]

I don't like dynasties. It's nice to see the Chiefs get their teeth kicked in.

 

[HisIceness]

Yeah for real. Fitting some of those UGA players are on the Eagles.

Super Bowl-wise this feels like Ravens vs Giants. One teams defense was just God-tier.

 

[Svechhammer]

Welp

I'm going to be unbelievably hungover tomorrow

GO BIRDS!!!!!!!!!!

A Pennsylvania team won the Super Bowl the season the Hurricanes won the Cup.

They were both not close games!

I still hate that they give the Lombardi to the owner first. The NHL does it right. Team captain first and all the players get it before the coaches and owners.

I think hockey is the only one that does it that way. Not surprisingly.

And the stupid thing is that this seems to be a very North American thing. Take the EPL trophy presentations by comparison:

Congrats, brother. The only Eagles' fan I'll ever say that to LOL

I lived in Philly for a brief period in my younger days when I was an extremely over the top and obnoxious fan — watched many Carolina Panthers games in Eagles bars with Eagles fans, including a few matchups against them. Amazingly, despite the reputation, I had nothing but great experiences with Eagles fans. I was pulling for the Chiefs because I like Reid but have nothing against an Eagles win. I can’t stand that the league allows the tush push nonsense but can’t blame the team for that, that’s a league problem. Sirianni is a massive douche and extremely unlikeable but every team has a few of those guys so whatever. Congrats to the eagles and their fans

My oldest was 1 month old when the Birds won LII. Last night I got to experience the whole game with her, and that's a memory I will cherish forever.

Never thought I would ever see the Eagles do it once, let alone twice. And I never thought I would ever see them make it look easy.

They have 2 titles, and each one prevented a 3pete for the opposition. Love it.
