Mark Dice on TV again: Boycott the Super Bowl and read a book instead

February 4, 2010

Only days after making news on a Florida TV station, Mark Dice makes broadcast TV a second time in Los Angeles in a bid to convince people some people at least to boycott the SuperBowl and focus instead our excitement, anger and energy on the political looting of our country. Instead of a competition with no real impact on our lives, people should educate themselves on the things that really matter.

...Mark Dice calls the SuperBowl, and TV in general, the opiate of the masses....

What's wrong with that? We can't have one lousy day a year to push aside the world's problems and just all get together and enjoy ourselves?

TAMPA Feb. 3, 2009 Super Bowl XLIII is now the most viewed television program in U.S. history with a total audience of 151.6 million viewers, according to official national ratings data released today by Nielsen Media Research.

"Everyone associated with the NFL should feel a great sense of pride in this accomplishment and in providing a day of enjoyment to American families especially those who are struggling in these difficult times."

MOST VIEWED TELEVISION PROGRAMS IN HISTORY (total viewers):

1. Super Bowl XLIII 151.6 million NBC 2009
2. Super Bowl XLII 148.3 million Fox 2008
3. Super Bowl XXVIII 144.4 million CBS 2004


While I may not follow football games every week, I love all the hype and excitment the Superbowl brings with it every year and never miss watching the game.

Bring on the betting, beer, booze, and bowls of chili!

GO COLTS!
GO SAINTS!

excitment = excitement



pfffffft to Vernon. lol

A bunch of steroid muscleheads kicking a ball around.
Enjoy...

And who can forget Janet Jackson's exposed breast.
Wow! The fun of it all. I can't wait.


A bunch of steroid muscleheads kicking a ball around...

...beats reading the meandering tirades of a half-wit who can't distinguish youtube videos from reality.

Jeffy, you would find more enjoyment in sports if you weren't an indolent lardass who can't appreciate feats of athleticism.

So, because 2/3rds of America can't name the Sec of State or point to Iran on a map, I'm supposed to purposely miss the Super Bowl?

Fuck that.

Hell I never watch football and I watch the superbowl it is super after all.

Besides everyone in my house knows the sec state and can find Iran. Ok so I had to help the 7 year old but still...

Bring on the betting, beer, booze, and babes!

Chrissy's gettin looooose! Grrrr..

I believe the point is that there is always the latest "distraction opiate" of the masses from the things that really should matter to Americans. Whether it's the latest Lost episode, Michael Jackson story, movie blockbuster, American Idol, Grammy's propaganda piece or millions of other built-in propaganda advertisements to everyday life. The superbowl is just one more of those huge distractions. The commercials that everyone will be mezmorized in will contain tons of propaganda.

Bring on the betting, beer, booze, and babes!

At least you can count on the first three to be going on at your place on Super Bowl Sunday.


Once in a while, one has to escape reality.

Why do people try to ruin the fun for other people? Reading a book and watching the super bowl are not mutually exclusive, BTW.

JT -

One thing about you is that you sure do seem to know your sports!

So, seriously, which team do I want to root for on Super Bowl Sunday -- the Colts or the Saints?

And by how many points?


The saints! They will win in a close one.

Jeffy, the irony here is that the football players and the fans of football are better educated than the public-at-large (all the football players are college graduates).

Why else would CBS be running yet another Obama interview right before the game?

Never got over that atomic wedgie in high school, did you, you pre-historic emo twit?

SUPER BOWL - 3:30 p.m. PST today


I'm going to place my own (totally uneducated) bet and pick the SAINTS to win by 7 points.

The Who will be doing the half time show!

I'm with you, Chris. I mean, "The Who"...nice. As for the points, you're probably right but I'll go for Saints by 10.

Yeah let's sit in front of the TV for several hours tonight and worship some ball chucking idiots, and make the wealthy team owners, advertisers and players that have been on the receiving end of our public tax dollars for their stadiums, etc. even richer than they already are.

America - a country where the poor are suckered and forced into paying alms to the NFL so as to make these entertainers even richer.

Some believe watching the game (and I emphasize game) tonight will enhance their lives and education and the time will be something cherished forever as a religious experience. If you believe it go for it...lol. I'm not going to bother.

Aw, shut-up.

"Aw, shut-up."

Posted by CalifChris at 2010-

Actually it's much more fun watching posts by people stupid enough to watch a stupid bowel let alone a halftime show.

If you believe it go for it...lol. I'm not going to bother.

That's what's so cool about being an American, isn't it robson? The freedom to watch or not to watch.

...watch a stupid bowel

A little hari kiri going on?

"A little hari kiri going on?"

Nah.

Bluebell Peaches and Homemade Vanilla.

Bluebell Peaches and Homemade Vanilla.

I had Blue Bell homemade vanilla last night (sans peaches) but tonight there was a huge pile of pralines on the Superbowl spread in the galley. Lisa makes killer pralines -- even better than those hand wrapped ones you get at the cash register of mom and pop Mexican restaurants in S Texas. And she's a coonass
