I don't remember when or exactly what I said, but I'm pretty sure I said the Vikings had a much better shot at the superbowl than the Steelers did. I was wildly criticized for this prediction at the time. I'll go get some crow for you now. ;)
Steelers pretty much suck this year. No playoffs. Browns snuffed that flame out. - Cristo
Now we just need the Patriots to lose a few more games. - Cristo
Ah yes, now here it is: http://friendfeed.com/sports-... Looks like one of the "real" football teams has been exposed. - Cristo

The coach had put together the perfect team for the Detroit Lions. The only thing that was missing was a good quarterback. He had scouted all the colleges and even the Canadian and European Leagues, but he couldn't find a ringer who could ensure a Super Bowl win. Then one night while watching CNN he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan. In one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghan Muslim soldier with a truly incredible arm. He threw a hand-grenade straight into a 15th story window 100 yards away. KABOOM! ... - Ladybug Heather from Bookmarklet
He threw another hand-grenade 75 yards away, right into a chimney. KA-BLOOEY! - Ladybug Heather
Then he threw another at a passing car going 90 mph. BULLS-EYE! "I've got to get this guy!" Coach said to himself. "He has the perfect arm!" - Ladybug Heather
So, he brings him to the States and teaches him the great game of football. And the Lions go on to win the Super Bowl. The young Afghan is hailed as the great hero of football, and when the coach asks him what he wants, all the young man wants is to call his mother. - Ladybug Heather
"Mom," he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl!" - Ladybug Heather
"I don't want to talk to you, the old Muslim woman says. "You deserted us. You are not my son!" - Ladybug Heather
"I don't think you understand, Mother," the young man pleads. "I've won the greatest sporting event in the world. I'm here among thousands of my adoring fans." - Ladybug Heather
"No! Let me tell you!" his mother retorts. "At this very moment, there are gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Your two brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and I have to keep your sister in the house so she doesn't get raped!" - Ladybug Heather
The old lady pauses, and then tearfully says, "I will never forgive you for making us move to Detroit!" - Ladybug Heather

Robert Scoble
The thing is @arrington doesn't know I had my car damaged and life threatened by a mob after the 49ers won the SuperBowl in the 1980s. More:
Mobs ARE dangerous. But Arrington works to gather crowds and create the conditions for their formation. - Robert Scoble
Was the mob attack on you and your car personal? Or did you just happen to be there? - RobinDotNet
And doesn't propose solutions. Instead he compare MobFeed to a disease. Got it. OK, now what? - Robert Scoble
Arrington looks to draw criticism and mobs because it's good for his business. Anyone who argues with him is simply making him more successful. - Carlton Prest
This sounds like a setup to a Clay Shirky field day. - Dean Clark
Your point on Arrington here is well-taken, Robert. He who uses mobs shouldn't complain when they sometimes turn on him. - Ken Kennedy
Just happened because I was in the wrong place at wrong time. I have never been so terrified as that. - Robert Scoble
If you want to retard mobs you have to be involved. That is why I went on air with Arrington and Laporte after Laporte blew up. It is also why I spoke up on Arrington's behalf after I saw the mob was going too far. - Robert Scoble
I still think comparing FF to a disease is over the top. FF is just a tool, basically. You could aslo blame usenet groups, chat rooms, etc. You could encourage a mob in so many different ways these days that singling out FF is lame. - RobinDotNet
Robert: I have to hand it to you, I am confused, you seem to have conflicting points. On one hand you say you don't like mob suppression and now you saw that this personal experience terrified you. Are you for mobs, against mobs? please clarify. - Sean E Brown
Sean: I would rather live in America than Iran. That doesn't mean I like mobs but police don't shoot into mobs here. - Robert Scoble
Robert: I love ya, seriously - but this pretend spat with Michael Arrington is starting to look like two very intelligent men getting a lot of traction, on a slow news day? PLEASE tell me I am wrong (I want to be.) - Jim Connolly
Robert: No, they don't. Thank [insert deity here]. I would rather live here too. I don't liek mobs or mob mentality when they are formed for the wrong reasons OR start as something well intentioned then escalate into stupidity (Rodney King -- That's right, I said it) - Sean E Brown
Jim: I didn't plan this out and am not communicating with him other than in public. - Robert Scoble
Robert: The very fact this IS being played out in public is what makes it visible - no? You guys are friends right? - Jim Connolly
On that note.. "Can't we all just get along?" I'm going to give my dog a bath. Hope to hear you on Twit again soon Robert. Have a good afternoon. BTW, I sent you a tweet on Tamron lenses yesterday. Do you have any comment on them (privately/publicly)? - Sean E Brown
Sean: I haven't tried Tamron lately. - Robert Scoble
Jim: yeah I am Arrington's friend. Except when he uses his mob against me. - Robert Scoble
Wait, the car that was damaged -- is that the car Louis Gray bought? If so, did you disclose the damage? :) - Stephen Mack
Stephen: Louis's BMW didn't exist in the 1980s. - Robert Scoble
I can't help but be amused by all this. In the last twenty years I've seen variations on this squabble played out by dozens of different people on BBSes, usenet, forums, blogs. I've been guilty of causing a few too. It's not the technology. It's the people. If you spend a lot of time spouting opinions in public, you're going to get into arguments. If your public rhetoric is... more... - Eoghann Irving

Hulu's Superbowl Ad and the Boxee Fight - O'Reilly Radar - http://radar.oreilly.com/2009...
"Boxee was featured in an awesome New York Times article one month ago, with a picture of their product on a big-screen TV, and Hulu's logo clearly visible in the upper right corner. I can almost hear some lawyer somewhere in Hollywood screaming, "I thought Hulu was a WEB SITE! I do NOT see a WEB BROWSER in this PHOTOGRAPH!" at the sight of it. Boxee's blog post on the controversy says they heard from Hulu about this two weeks ago; I'd bet Hulu heard from that lawyer two weeks before that -- the morning the article appeared. Those calls are fun." - Paul Reynolds from Bookmarklet
"...The studios have a very long history of betting against technology people want, and on technology people don't want. This is just another such case. The technology people want always wins in the end -- no duh -- and usually benefits the businesses who fought that technology to the death. Here's hoping the technology people want -- Boxee -- doesn't wind up benefiting the studios fighting it now." - Paul Reynolds

SuperBowl usa Twitter para informar a sus visitantes. Como TVN usó Twitter para las Elecciones Municipales. ¿Vendrá un Twitter News? - Sebastián Pérez Oyarzún from Bookmarklet
Para que un news si puedo tomar el feed de google news y hacer una cuenta de noticias por twitter del medio que quiera..... - Tatov
El 99% de la población no tiene idea de que es feed, que es google news ni que es twitter. Tenemos que hacer un twitter news sin que nadie sepa que es twitter, solo el concepto aplicado a un widget donde el usuario solo sepa que le llegan las ultimas noticias en texto/fotos/video. demosle una vuelta. - robertocastro
Exacto, el tema acá es que no somos los únicos que estamos usando esta herramienta personal pensada para decir "lo que estás haciendo" con un objetivo de comunicación corporativa o noticiosa. En su momento nos complicó el tema porque nos botaba el sistema al descubrir nuestro uso no amateur. Y ahora veo que hay varias páginas que dieron ese giro más profesional. Yo seguiría atento la evolución y cuántos se suben a esta plataforma. - Sebastián Pérez Oyarzún
El concepto sería "destecnologizarlo" y entregar algo de facil uso... - Tatov

KNBC rejected our ad and claimed the National Football League (NFL) excluded PSA as “advocacy.” We learned during the Super Bowl broadcast that the NFL aired other advocacy ads, despite rejecting our ad. Late Friday afternoon, KNBC told our ad agency that the NFL Legal Department had viewed our ad and rejected it, explaining they planned to show... - http://www.gettoknowusfirst.org/

I bought a second tv for our overflow tv room. (c: I got a 25.5 in hd monitor, which I'm really excited writing some code on. Biggest monitor I've ever had.

@spidra Vork is a character from the webseries The Guild. He was in a Superbowl ad for Careerbuilder - I'll send you one....:)

I first saw the commercial when Felica linked it in FF (via Twitter), so, although I knew it was from an ad aired during the Superbowl, it is not the only context in which it is viewable. “To answer the copious queries, yes, Vork is in that Superbowl Career Builder ad.

Thanks Steve. Win or lose, it was a great game and the Steelers were the better team in this one. I felt we were a play or two away from the win; too many bad penalties and\or the INT for a TD just before half-time were just a wee bit too much to overcome. They gave it their all and hopefully earned some needed respect. :) - Kevin C. Tofel
