Question How would you rate Super Bowl week as a whole??

I think this was a disaster for the NFL, Dallas, & Jerry Jones. The weather was crappy, ice falls of stadium injuring 6 (1 critically), fire marshall deems 1200 seats unsafe and fans can't sit there, Christina screws up the national anthem, players are slipping and sliding all over field getting injured, halftime show stunk & the sound was garbage.

Not really into anything except the game. Would give that 8/10.

I only care about the game all that other stuff I don't even watch. The game was a great game. I thought the stripes did a wonderful job. It would have went down as the best game maybe ever if Pitt would have done more with that last drive. That 4 and out was nothing I want to remember.

The NFL made a shit load of money and the viewing audience broke a record for the 2nd straight year. Hardly a failure. Tough week, but they will fix these things for future events.

The game itself exceeded my expectations, don't really pay too much attention to the other aspects of it.. Although I will agree that the halftime show was garbage

Assuming there is a season next year, the snow and ice will be back.

Lucas Oil in Indy.....if Green Bay goes back to the SB you better believe I will be there. I would only be 50 minutes from the SB!!!

We'll be ready for the snow and ice in Indy, so it shouldn't be a problem. I can't wait for next year!

6.5 - 7.0 /10

Had TP been 100% Rodgers would have done a bit less...that's besides all the gametime injuries. I figure we could have had at least an 8.5 / 10 had both teams played with a full deck.

Halftime screwups give the game more credit than it should...take away the halftime show + other lil' stuff and I'm pretty sure you would rate the game differently.

The week preceeding the game was a disaster. The game itself was a collage of dropped passes, turnovers, and terrible time out management by the Steelers in the 2nd half. I have no idea where Troy P. ir Big Ben was, but their heads were obviously not in the game. I also have no idea why the Steelers abandoned their running game. On a plus note, Rodgers came of age, and showed the world that he is the next great NFL QB.
