It's The Super Bowl, Everypony!


John Joseco (take a shot) is amazing. But you knew this.

How about the game so far? It's been amazingly competitive so far. I came into it really worried about Gronkowski's ankle, but he was huge in that first half drive. But what about you guys? Anypony watching the game? Who are you rooting for?

Final Score: Patriots 17, Giants 21. All of my hate.

Discuss how bad the Jets are below.

WHY DOES THUS SPAKE ZARATHUSTRA DUBSTEP EXIST!?

GrandMasterPony said...

Patriots because i hate the giants with every fiber of my body

edock said...

Nah, I only like the Super Bowl for the hot scootloo wings.

Gwriterk said...

Hiya, Phoe! Yep, here with my family + one family friend, and it's getting uncomfortably warm in here...the adrenaline is running high. Great half-time show.

RagingPony said...

Not watching the Super Bowl. Too busy with ponies

Daxter Galaxy said...

Fuck the jets. I loved how 82 got sacked in the 3rd. I couldn't breath I was laughing so hard.

GHXpert59 said...

Hah, John Joseco drinking game reference.
Well played, sir.

I don't watch football.

munky433 said...

yeah, not a big football fan (not a fan at all really) so i'm just watching SHED.MOV and refreshing Reddit and Tumblr

noc said...

meh, don't care for either team

DcmRulz said...

Hate both teams, Both looking good but not capitalizing. Belichick's plan was to double Cruz and remove him from the game, leaving Nicks to dominate. Pats getting what New York gives them, and the other TE (Hernandez) is certainly making the most of his newfound freedom. Law Firm is doing pretty well today, as is Welker.

Xeddrief said...

I couldn't care less about sports of any kind.

NDupree93 said...

I really just watch the game to see the half-time show.

This year was...eh. Madonna was obviously trying her hardest, and Cee Lo Green was awesome for the short portion he had. LMFAO and Nicki Minaj were out and out PAINFUL though, and I'm glad they were only there for a short time. Visually it was impressive, but the music was nothing spectacular.

Oh yeah, there's something about football or something going on...go Broncos? *shrug*

XyroTR1 said...

I'm here for the food, the fun, and the commercials. The game is just on at the same time. ;)

Halftime show was ridiculously well designed. Party Rock made me immediately think of Discord shufflin'. :P

The Troll said...

Sports and Ponies? Yes plz. Anyway... Patriots are my favorites here because I completely despise the Giants (although I do tolerate them :P). Also, looks like the Pats will win this one :)

Thar said...

This is the only game I watch, and don't care about either team. But I will hope for the Patriots to win.

Skyshadow said...

I live in Poland and what is this?

Celestia said...

I'm just here to comment on the picture. Canterlot is always knocked out first in anything.

But hey, Bluebloood owns all our sports teams so that's to be expected.

Brony2you said...

Why do they keep cutting out the commercials to go to game-breaks...

I know I'm pathetic.. :p

Phoe said...

@Skyshadow

Poland has its own professional football league. Don't give me that. =P

Harwick said...

I'm going with the Patriots. And the full minute long Avengers spot online was pretty awesome. Not sure what my favorite actual commercial has been though...

DJN8 said...

Why watch men in tight pants tackle each other when you have ponies.

PsychedelicBrony said...

I am expressing my disinterest towards the Super Bowl by watching MLP the whole time.

The Grey Potter said...

Today was the super bowl???????

Huh.

Well, back to ponies!

Nintyuk said...

I'm from the UK and what is this?

Cyril said...

Ahhhhhh the giants D is being brutal... they can't seem to keep up with Brady's late game despite his apparent problems. Ergh. Other than that, I am here hoping.

RavensDagger said...

I like how there is one pony in the pic staring at Celestia's mini-skirt. Bloody hilarious, escaped me the first time.

Beta-Carotene said...

What is this... bowl of super you speak of?

Octavia said...

Honestly, I'm not a football person. And I couldn't care less about the Giants or the Patriots. lol But I will say that is a really awesome picture by John. Dat Celestia in a cheerleader outfit. Derpy with a football on her head, hah.

ZachZRipper said...

I agree completely. Jets suck. no offense, but Rex acts like a load of horseapples. Go Giants, mainly because i also despise the Patriots. Dolphins fan all the way.

Dojorkan said...

Maybe we should have a non-fanfiction/non-pony mode.

testyal1 said...

Super Bowl? Oh, you mean that sport where everyone is slaughtered.

Seriously, I cannot STAND American Football, Association Football, Rugby, or anything of the sort.

Dojorkan said...

Maybe we should have a non-fanfiction/non-pony mode.

CGentilcore11 said...

Hey! Pass me some of those hush puppies!

Admiral Stoic "El Cazador" Rum said...

Lavender Unicorn on the right with Black hair and tie is thinking..."Dat Flank!"

Skyshadow said...

@Phoe

Professional, haha good joke

The Numberman said...

I actually don't care about the football per se (given I'm in Aus), I'm just going to watch the best commercials on youtube later.

Xeddrief said...

Its just, a large group of muscley and sweaty men grabbing balls doesn't really appeal to me.

Naly said...

I'm not really into watching football that much, though I don't see anything wrong with it. Playing it is fun, though; I play a game with my Boy Scout troop every now and then.

SoulSilver IV said...

The Superbowl is one of the most boring sporting events I have ever watched. The Six Nations/Rugby World cup are 1000 times more interesting.

Sorry guys, I can't stand this stop-and-start gameplay which drags the game out over the space of 5 hours (which is how long I watched the last Superbowl before I died of boredom). maybe it's because I'm British? =/

If it's any consolation I'm not a fan of football (soccer) either.

DISLIKE *ALL* THE POPULAR SPORTS!

Crmerry said...

The halftime show was a mix of nostalgia and terror.I wonder how much they have to practice to do such quick wardrobe changes. As for the movie previews, I think people should take a cue from Rainbow; just read the books and play the game.

Pegasus Rescue Brigade said...

I love it.

I love how Phoe is the one posting about football. The EQD staff's only girl.

Apparently our community continues to shatter all gender stereotypes. Seth and Cereal are probably off not caring (I know I am), and posting pony, and Phoe is watching the Super Bowl.

Well done, Phoe. Now, I must forget about football and go back to pony.

Phoe said...

Suddenly, Voltron.

Harwick said...

Was I the only one really looking for a Pony in that Met Life commercial?

Eddmario said...

Usually I only watch the Super Bowl during the halftime show, but I missed it because I was playing Skyrim. Anybody got a link to a good quality recording of it that has sound? I can't seem to find one.

Flutterfan said...

Twilight would make a great QB with her horn and all. Rainbow Dash a good wide reciever. AJ can kick field goals.

JordanRynes said...

And to think I just marched in that stadium a few months ago...

the rarest pony said...

I'm from New England. I'm obligated to root for the Pats.

Also, I like that Derpy is rooting for football.

Killsteal_Wolf said...

Us in the UK have no knowledge or concern with the Superbowl.

That said, us in the UK shouldn't be up at 2am either.

Penguin_616 said...

I saw this on deviantART (puts cool glasses on) before it appears on EQD.

sonicx said...

Dat Celestia in a cheerleader outfit OMG!!!!!

CGentilcore11 said...

@Harwick

You're not alone, lad. You're not alone.

jodyjm13 said...

The Jets were 8-8 this year, which does seem safely mediocre, yeah. Not watching the game, but sorta hoping the Giants win, just because of Eli Manning.

And really fun drawing by John Joseco.

Joe said...

Am I the only one who doesn't like football? Or any sports for that matter?

Sovereign1023 said...

God, if the Patriots win...

Sketch Pad said...

Well, now that I've seen the Avengers trailer, I can now stop watching the Superbowl and get back to pony.

The_A_Drain said...

I don't know who to root for... I'm only a casual (like, 2-3 games a year) American Football fan so I only really root for The Patriots because I like the logo, and The Giants because of Carl from ATHF.

Go... both teams!

Flutterfan said...

Since we're on the subject, ponified NFL logos.

Jelfes said...

Hehehe, football...

Justin said...

Celestia's legwarmers are the best thing about this picture

ftfc said...

We don't care for the sport, so back to refreshing tumblr and playing games!

New tag!

Yellow 13 said...

Hoping for Giants to win, while not really paying much attention to it.

Fridge Logic said...

Phoe, you are now my favorite blog pony.

Fuck the jets! GO DOLPHINS!

Topaz Acoustic said...

Pats Gonna win this!! WOOT

GrandMasterPony said...

Screw everyone else.
GO EAGLES DAMMIT.

Cap-Sigma said...

I feel like I'm the only one here rooting for the giants...

Mr Monotone said...

Whatever I might think about american football I have to concede you guys really know how to make a show of sport over there. The best we get here in the UK is a soggy pie at half time.

Atlanta said...

Super Bowl? Psh, Olympics are where it's at, Phoe.

lesserpoet said...

I'm a Saints fan (WHO DAT!), and I would normally be rooting for the NFC... But in my book there was only ever one GOOD Manning, and that was Archie. One down, Eli to go..

Go Pats.

Marvin Martian said...

Im going to slit my throat if the Pisstriots win.

Phoe said...

@Atlanta

I agree! Unfortunately, that's not until this summer!

Topaz Acoustic said...

@XyroTR1 Im not the only one who thought of Discord at that point XD

Oren said...

As a Niners fan, I'm still pissed. Screw the Super Bowl.

Scatman said...

I hope the Giants get it together now...

HALOGUNNYSGT said...

I really hope that the Giants win. Because the only thing worse than your team not making it to the super bowl, is the team that beat you to get there losing in the super bowl.

BigMacintosh said...

Yeah woohoo Giants suck Patriots rule!

thelegendofpict said...

Jets? That's not how you spell Cowgirls.

/whodat!

Lightning Fast said...

Sports? Is that a food?

Weim_Time said...

ay hate both them teams

Harwick said...

So Hasbro had Superbowl ads for 2 big movie properties this summer... "Battleship" and "GI Joe 2". Neither of which had ponies in them. I don't approve of how that company is spending its motion picture production budget.

GI Joe looks like it could be dumb fun though. Never saw the first one.

Flutterfan said...

Zecora: I do not know much about this game, but I do find the commercials pretty lame.

BeanyOne said...

Who dat. Where's my Brees?!

Eli's good, though. Just as long as Brady eats it. :3

Lightning Fast said...

@Joe

Yo. Canadian here. I watch a few hockey playoff games; that's it.

JordanRynes said...

Not a sports fan. Surprised nobody is a Colts fan for the name alone.

He11ix said...

My prediction on how the game will end:

The score will be tied, and it will be the final play. Before the players have a chance to move from their positions, a man will run on field. He will be wearing a green beanie, a yellow custom Fluttershy hoodie, jeans and white sneakers. When he reaches the center of the field, all shall fall silent, not in curiosity, but in fear. The players will leave the field, controlled by some outside force. Then, the man shall begin to dance.

The dance shall defy all styles, and the music broadcasting directly through everyone's brains will defy all genres. The grass beneath his feet shall die, and in it's place will be a substance will a color never seen by man. The same colors will be found in the fireworks and shooting stars littering the night sky. Those who have the courage not to look away from the being in the center of the field will feel the cold, bracing grasp of god on their very souls. It will last forever, yet only a few minutes shall pass in reality before all remnants of the mysterious man vanish from the earth. Those who witnessed it will not be able to find words to express their emotions during that time, and those who did not will not have the capability to understand the concepts anyway.

And then the Patriots score a touchdown while everyone is distracted.

One Radical Dude said...

Not a big NFL fan, but I want the Patriots to lose.

ZeroHero said...

!SPOILER ALERT!

I dont care about Football....

Joystik said...

@Phoe

Trying my best to love and tolerate Rex Ryan and company. But they should really take a lesson from Trixie, don't boast if you can't deliver the goods in the end.

Go Pats

TacoBobMan said...

I hear you Brother Fridge Logic. Still, the Dolphins make me sad. They're gonna just repeat and make all the same mistakes they make every year. Try for YET another Quarterback. Don't bother getting anyone to DEFEND the QB, or anyone the QB could throw to. SIGH.

Cute pic.

iBcraZ said...

I don't dislike any NFL team, but in this situation GO PATRIOTS!!!

PsychoJason said...

Yes, I agree the Winnipeg Jets are bad this year.

naahdude said...

HOW THE FUCK WAS THAT NOT A CATCH

FUCK YOU REF FUCK YOUUUUUU

seth said...

Super Bowl pah what is this

Flutterfan said...

I'm getting deja vu.

Shadowluma said...

I watched it for the commercials.

naahdude said...

The problem Cereal is that everyone checking EqD right nwo are the people who don't give a buck about football. Everyone else is at a bar or with their friends right now watching Eli orchestrate a 4th Quarter Comeback.

Well except me after my sister threw up at the Super Bowl party and we had to drive home -_-

Jamies said...

The Pats need to lose dammit. Screw Brady.

Also:

WHO DEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yellow 13 said...

Getting close. Come on Giants!

karrotline said...

to be honest, i only care about the commercials

Phoe said...

Feeling like the Giants just won this.

Shho13 said...

GO GIANTS!!!

Bring the Super Bowl home to BRONYCON June!!!

All they gotta do now is hold off on scoring... If they score now, they will give Brady 2 minutes to score.

Copper Plate said...

The Jets? Bad? But... When you're a Jet, you're a Jet all the way...

TacoBobMan said...

I care about football. just don't really care who wins this one. Not a bit. :(

ChaosDX1 said...

Oh, that's going on now?
Never was too interested in sports.

Destroyer said...

Never really got into sports because well it's lacking something for me maybe some ponies... Nah but still I don't really care for it

Willkeaj said...

@Phoe You may be right, there.

BunkieBunny said...

This game was pretty good. However I'm not a big fan of either team.

Flutterfan said...

LOL That was hilarious.

The Invincible said...

I've been pulling for the Big Blue Wreckin' Crew all game, they are definitely the better team.

But I can't fully enjoy the game. It should be my Ravens in there!

Willkeaj said...

Hahaha! Well, that's one way to make a touchdown!

Flutterfan said...

Bradshaw is the best pony.

Phoe said...

Oh ho! Suddenly this just got interesting... :3

GrandMasterPony said...

WE CAN STILL GET THIS. HE DID A HUGE FUCK UP JUST NOW,

mycutiemarkisagun said...

There's still time for Bane to blow up the field and spare this Eagles fan such indignity.

motherFUCK this Super Bowl. Seriously.

Yellow 13 said...

This should be good.

Brony001 said...

I wonder if there will be a MLP superbowl commercial

Shho13 said...

@Willkeaj

You can say he made skid marks!!!

Ok bad joke.

The Invincible said...

You can't give Brady any time at the end of the game. He WILL make you pay.

Jamies said...

Ugh dammit NEED TO STOP BRADY NAO!!!!!!!!

mycutiemarkisagun said...

I BET BRADY MISSES MOSS NOW LOL

JordanRynes said...

Game over! Back to ponies!

DerpyShy said...

I don't watch Football, it's not nearly as realistic as Wii Bowling.

Lazuli said...

Oh, wow! I thought Super Bowl was something with baseball! Shows how much I know about non-motorsport sports...

Well, it's 4 am here. Maybe that's why I'm stupider then usual!

The Invincible said...

Hold on. not over yet.

Shho13 said...

This is gonna give me a heart attack...

Jamies said...

Giants= lesser of 2 evils right now, I hate both of these teams.

Myzene said...

Nine seconds holy crap...

JordanRynes said...

My mom keeps switching to PBS! What happened!?

Shho13 said...

outta bounds... 5 seconds!!!

The Invincible said...

This is it. The whole game right here.

Myzene said...

And that's game everyone!!

Shho13 said...

YTASYFySADGHFIADVGAHDGIJADGKHDFGNDFGOIDCHVKSDH yayayayaYAAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!

Nailbiter to the end. Just how I like it.

Scatman said...

YES! YES!
*starts dancing*

NDupree93 said...

Giants win!

Man, that was pretty close.

RaptorArts said...

I dont give a darn about any kind of sports event. I just want PONIES! And I love the purple male pony whos drinking and blushing while looking at Celestias backside XD

That would so be me XD except id be drinking Applejacks famous apple cider XD

Scatman said...

@Phoe
Sorry, Phoe. Have a good night!

Pinkamina Diane Pie said...

I don't speak football. Or watch it. I seriously only watch the super bowl for the commercials.

The Invincible said...

What a finish. My boy, the Big Gronkowski, he almost had that one. But the jump ball hit the ground.
Big ups to the G-Men, what a miracle season. Special kudos to Eli, he's the big brother now. Big Blue is on top again!

mycutiemarkisagun said...

goddammit

we beat these fuckers like 3 times this season

somebody PLEASE nuke NYC already

Myzene said...

We love you Phoe :3

Shho13 said...

GIANTS bring it home for us NY guys!!!

BroNYCon June 2012, hosted at the home of THE GIANTS, SUPER BOWL 2012 winners!!!

Scatman said...

@mycutiemarkisagun
I wouldn't tempt fate like that.

Nakalla said...

fff. the jets aren't bad. the BRONCOS are bad. they rely on tebow for eberything, why not bailey or summat?

and i would know, trust me, i'm a coloradan inside and out.

Jelfes said...

You know what I did when the Giants won? Nothing... because I don't care.

vDiscord said...

It would've been epic if 87 made that last catch

Joystik said...

As an eagles fan I say meh. Great game between 2 teams I despise. Whoever won, I lost

Bronyhub said...

Man those last few seconds...

Marshall said...

Poop. I really wanted the Pats to win. Oh well...

marioandsonic said...

Eagles fan here.

brb, going to go puke my lungs out.

Flutterfan said...

Congratulations Mario Manningham, you're the new David Tyree.

Discord said...

Let Facebook get overflowed with comments on the victory and loss

Amonisis said...

mycutiemarkisagun said...

@Scatman

yea i am TOTALLY tempting fate here, GO PAKISTAN GO

Michael C said...

Is it just me or is the image of Celestia in a cheerleader outfit just one of the cutest things ever?

The Invincible said...

Man, these Giants. Second time in a row, they keep their hope alive in the Super Bowl on the greatest catch in Championship history. I still remember watching Tyree's helmet grab back in '07. I thought I'd just seen the most exciting Super Bowl ever. But it just gets better every year. What a game. Non-stop action start to finish. In fact, this one might just be the best Super Bowl of all-time.

HALOGUNNYSGT said...

Daaaang that was the closest Super Bowl I have ever seen. Just the way I love it.

Reparation said...

Patriots, I am disappoint. On the side note, time to move on to better things: PONIES.

BDmaster said...

HAHAHAHAHAHA I HATE THE PATRIOTS, THIS IS THE BEST!

Kerigis said...

Good finish there. Hoofclaps for the Giants for scoring even with all the things that happened.
Sorry Patriots. Count your men properly next time.

Jafro the Unknown said...

I knew the Packers would win.

Jamies said...

@Phoe

Sorry I just never could root for the Pats, still <3 you though

lesserpoet said...

Keep it classy, Giants. That game winning touchdown by 44 was perhaps the most disgusting display of arrogance and disrespect I have ever seen in all my years of watching the sport...

Thar said...

Those simple errors cost them the game. Who placed a zebra voodoo curse on them?

Flutterfan said...

Tom Brady: I just don't know what went wrong!

Joystik said...

Could have been worse, we could have a cowboys/broncos superbowl.

Flutterfan said...

@lesserpoet That was to take as much time off the clock as possible, not disrespect.

Steph said...

As a New Englander, I'm legally obligated to cheer for the Patriots.
That said, they were really terrible.

The Invincible said...

@lesserpoet

Not sure if trolling, or just don't understand strategy of football.

He was trying to NOT score a touchdown. By stopping short of the goal line, the Giants could run the clock down, and kick for the win, and the Pats would've never got the ball back at all. That's why he was so pissed off that he scored.

Ikusa GT said...

@lesserpoet He didn't want to score a touchdown. He tried to stop so they could run out the clock and take the game winning field goal.


As for the Jets they're terrible.

mycutiemarkisagun said...

@marioandsonic

*CRIES ON YOUR SHOULDER*

PARTY-TIME MINT-ALS WILL MAKE THE PAIN GO AWAY

Dreamin Daze said...

I didnt root for either team the only team in the nfl I give any horseapples about are the lions. To bad they wont ever go to a super bowl.

Alto Clef said...

My dad's a huge Giants fan, me, I'm a huge Patriots fan, I've now cried after TWO superbowls while my dad's laughing at me...

mycutiemarkisagun said...

???

Why do people keep saying The Jets are terrible? No, no, no you got it all wrong.

Mark Sanchez is terrible.

Get it right.

The Invincible said...

Eli looks so happy holding that trophy. Don't know about him winning MVP again, though.
