Hmm. Very clever, Stephan — but this will go right over the heads of those who don’t follow American football (I don’t, but I know people who do, so I got the joke nevertheless!).
It won’t go over anyone’s heads. He explained it in the last frame. Even people who don’t know football know what the Super Bowl is. 5 hours of commercials, nachos, partying, and maybe a nip slip.
I always hope that the Super Bowl will end with the game tied and both teams end up in a brawl that the refs cant control and thus the game is indefinitely suspended.Hey, a guy can dream, can’t he? :D :D :D
Sad to see the Dolphins attacked in the first panel, but we’ll see who’s standing at the end of the season. I think “Frasier” said it best in one episode “what the heck is a Seahawk?”
as millionaire players take a knee for blm in total disregard for their fans feelings and fans stay home and watch anything else other than footballboycotting football and their advertisersowners of the teams just do not care that the fans who are paying all that money to worship teams and players are getting fed up with their actions

The Giant looks pretty impressive but I think a Jet could probably take him out.

The giants already have five losses and lost their best receiver. Tough hill to climb for Pig’s pick.
