This is the only thread of someone live-tweeting the Super Bowl without actually watching the Super Bowl.
That version of the Star Spangled Banner was aight.
By the way: Did you know “Spangle” is the way white people used to say “Bling?”
Every time they have to double a big, athletic black dude with two white dudes, I feel like they should have to give up half their salary.
Also, when it’s not used in the context of football, the word “punt” sounds very obscene.
Did you see that play Johntavius just made at cornerback?
Or safety?
Or wide receiver?
Me either, but I bet there’s somebody on the field named Johntavius.
If there isn’t, they don’t wanna win
I bet they’ve mentioned Tom Brady’s age 129 times already.
“At 43 years old, he can still fall down when anyone gets close to him. It’s amazing!”
The commercials are hilarious...
To people who drink Bud Light and wears Skechers.
I love Johntavius’ story. You gotta admire how he overcame crushing poverty, the drug war, and the legacy of white supremacy to earn a living acquiring long-term concussive blows to his brain!
This game is great!
I mean, the football is aight but this capitalism shit is AMAZING
I gotta admit The Weeknd’s performance was very sparkly. The colors! The moves! The lasers! The the way they had the white people dancing around the stage highlights this country’s inclusive melting pot*
And how about the surprise cameo?
*This Tweet is embargoed until halftime
I loved that PSA about how the NFL is dedicated to erasing that social problem they kicked that guy out of the league for calling attention to.
I don’t know who needs to hear this but that’s enough wings, eat one of those celeries (celeri?)
“Meh.”
Coming this fall to CBS!
Tampa (or Kansas City) needs a big play right now.
They’ve got to stick with their game plan (or make some adjustments).
This is when champions are made
I hope someone on the winning team thanks God and Gods interrupts with:
“I was actually pulling for the other team, but the Holy Ghost can’t read defenses, my child!”
The reason no one takes us seriously is that Black culture celebrates rappers, broken English and ratchetness instead of traditional American values....
Until it’s time to sell some Cool Ranch Doritos
I forgot to say this:
“They gotta convert on 3rd down.”
The announcers ALWAYS say that shit.
I told y’all this was gonna happen!
I said: “It’s gonna come down to which team has a better combined performance on offense, defense and special teams.”

IT IS A FACT that Our government speaks out for people mistreated around the world while MOST whites people don’t care that our criminal justice system does the same thing at home.
"The largest threat to U.S. national security are U.S. cops. Not ISIS, not Russian hackers, not anyone or anything else."
Cops kill more Americans than Russians or ISIS AND the cost threatens our national security.
In 2020, Homeland Security spent $281m on cyber security
Some people thought this was a snarky remark, so I'll answer:
A LOT of people thought @BeschlossDC meant OPENLY "violence-prone, racist anti-Semites" striding around the U.S. Capitol as elected members.
But here's your answer.
A thread:
So we won't be here all day, let's start with post-Civil War Congressional members. I'm not picking & choosing. I could easily mention slaveowners like Preston Brooks, who almost clubbed Charles Sumner to death ON THE SENATE FLOOR for an anti-slavery speech
That's too easy.
When the Civil War ended, Sen. James Guthrie was in office. Guthrie didn't own a lot of slaves but he was in favor of whipping the ones he had and keeping them enslaved.
Why?
Well, here's how he explained it to THE UNITED STATES SENATE:
Every major bank in the US has been sued for mortgage discrimination and a study that included every mortgage in America found that Banks charge higher interest rates to nonblack customers
Have you heard that one about coming together and political unity after an insurrection?
A thread:
One time, after a contentious election, there was a group of angry white people. Because of their "economic anxiety," they refused to acknowledge the president. But THEIR economic anxiety was really white supremacy.
NO, I'm not talking about 2020. This was the election of 1860.
Lincoln wanted to ignore these racist idiots but—I don't know if you've heard about this—racists aren't known for their "letting-shit-go" qualities.
Very few people who own muskets and handlebar mustaches are described as "pretty chill dudes."
Everyone has seen this clip of him recalling every play in a game.
This ain’t studying film. This is just instant recall.
And the interesting thing about it is that she didn’t ask him about the last few seconds at the end of the game. It’s just a random point in 48-minute game
He does the same thing in this clip. But if you listen closely, he’s going to make a reference to something ANOTHER player did in ANOTHER GAME from ANOTHER YEAR
