the former prison camp of Katrina is a piece of old shit, I can't believe they still use it, especially for the SuperBowl. No big conspiracy here imo. What I found amazing was how biased the whole announcing crew was against Baltimore. I could tell these clowns did not want the Ravens to win @ all. Then when 1/2 the lights went out, they instantly broke into psych propaganda by trying to mentally tear them down. "Oh this is going to take the momentum out of the Ravens game", "This isn't good for Baltimore", "WOW, This could be the turning point for the 49er's" "The longer this delay goes on, the more its going to hurt the Ravens"

I mean how blatant can these announcing clowns get? Well Baltimore still won you morons.

NEW ORLEANS -- As he ran 108 yards for the longest kickoff return in Super Bowl history, Jacoby Jones saw only one thing.

"Daylight," Jones said after helping the Baltimore Ravens to a 34-31 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. "Follow any avenue and it was daylight."

The irony was that Super Bowl XLVII forever will be remembered for a period of darkness.

Minutes after Jones gave the Ravens a 28-6 lead on the second-half kickoff, the lights went out in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Some backup lighting remained on, but play was stopped for about 34 minutes, and the international television broadcast was interrupted.

Did Beyonce flash an Illuminati sign?

By Jay Busbee | Shutdown Corner – 10 hours ago

1. Did Beyonce flash the Illuminati sign during her halftime performance? According to legend, the Illuminati are a tiny, super-secret cabal of influential individuals who have shaped the course of world events. So it makes perfect sense that Beyonce would flash their triangle sign to one of the largest viewing audiences in human history. What better way to preserve a secret? That's a definite possibility. Also a possibility? That she was showing some love to her husband Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records, which uses the diamond as its symbol. (Here's a bunch of celebs doing the same thing.) But then again, maybe Roc-A-Fella is in on it too. It's all connected!

I saw an interesting photo on another forum. It was Hitler making that symbol and also the new Obama Youth Brigade also making it standing in from of him doing it. Coincidence?

PS: commercials were horrible, albeit this one that was interesting, don't know what the message is supposed to be, farming is now a Monsanto Monopoly, Paul Harvey's dead, and what the hell does a new piece of China-made-crap vehicle have to do w/ this message??

Super Bowl f-bomb may draw flag

Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco fired a few bombs to win against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, but by dropping the F-bomb on national TV during the Baltimore Ravens' post-game celebration, he opened CBS up to a complaint at the FCC.

The Parents Television Council, which fights indecent speech on the airwaves, asked the commission to investigate CBS for its failure to bleep out the offensive word.

Super Bowl contest winner denied entry to U.S. over marijuana convi...

A Vancouver Island man who won an all-expenses-paid trip to the Super Bowl in New Orleans has been refused entry into the U.S. because of a marijuana possession conviction dating back to 1981.

Victoria resident Myles Wilkinson won the trip in a fantasy football league contest, competing against nearly four million other players for the chance to attend the National Football League championship, featuring the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers.

But when he got to Pearson International Airport in Toronto on Thursday, U.S. customs agents learned of a marijuana possession conviction in Vancouver in 1981 and told him he was not allowed to enter the country.
