    Well I'm a Bengals fan so I was rooting for the Eagles
    but at least the fans got their money's worth. Beyond that,
    I don't much care about the Super Bowl any more. There
    seems to be more commercials than football and
    the Halftime Show gets more over-the-top and vulgar
    every year.

    I'll stick with college football.

    Nope. Josh Sills, indicted for rape and kidnapping in Ohio a week and a half before the game.

    THAT is the karma debt. After four other teams got rigged and jobbed out with off-the-field crime blotter stuff (Bills with one before the season; Cowboys, 49ers, and Bengals during the playoffs, Sills ten days before the Super Bowl)...

    I booed him too. He's been unashamedly stealing a paycheck from Jerry
    Jones for seven years. Just because he spreads a bucks around doesn't
    make him a man of the year.

    "Prescott donated $1 million to improve police training and address
    systemic racism following the killing of George Floyd in 2020."

    "Though he doesn't specify what organization will be receiving the
    donation, the NFL star said the funds will go toward addressing
    "systematic racism through education and advocacy" and enhancing police training."

    "..Black Lives Matter acknowledged an anonymous donation of $1 million."
