Here Are Some Angry Letters People Sent To The FCC After M.I.A. Flipped Off The Super Bowl
Maybe this doesn't need to be said, but normal people don't complain to the FCC. It's not that they don't get offended: it's just that it takes a hell of a lot more to offend them than the sort of thing that actually makes it on television.

Mitt Romney Explains Super Bowl 46 In The Stiffest Way Imaginable

Él Es Fiesta: Sterling Moore Went To IHOP Just Two Days After Losing The Super Bowl
This soon after a heartbreaking loss, It is an insult to every long-suffering fan for a player to go to a reasonably priced national chain.

Boston Glee Party: Brandon Spikes Is Joking Around With Fans Just Five Days After Losing The Super Bowl

Sunshine Patriot: Chad Ochocinco Sure Looks Happy Just Five Days After Losing The Super Bowl

Vince Wilfork Straight Up Told The Refs They Blew A Call In New England's Favor

Rodney Harrison Is An Idiot. Let Rob Gronkowski Dance!
You may have seen this video of Pats tight end Rob Gronkowski and tackle Matt Light, fresh off of losing the Super Bowl, doing what I would be probably be doing if I just lost the biggest game of my life: getting shitfaced, dancing shirtless, and trying to get laid.

This Looks Like A Fortified Sniper's Nest At The Super Bowl
Some photos with no backstory are making the rounds, showing what appears to be an Indianapolis police sniper checking out his post in the rafters of Lucas Oil Stadium in the hours or days before the Super Bowl, a post that would be manned when the game began.

The Giants Parade, Through The Lens Of A Guy Who Got Kicked Out Of It
I am a Giants fan, but I'm also fascinated by the human condition, and I happen to think nothing is more fascinating than a million people brought together by nothing more than a football team and the rare socially acceptable opportunity to get drunk before breakfast. It was with this in mind that I...
