More madness: a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum.

The one month grace period didn’t last long for Canada and Mexico.

Pretty hard to find a cheaper source of aluminum than Canada’s made with cheap hydro electric power, unless we buy it from China doing a dumping of product.

Not sure how much steel and aluminum will add to input costs of things like cars, buildings, and structural infrastructure.

In the past a 20% tariff on Canadian lumber went under the radar and was not counted.

When does the nonsense end…

7-0 Eagles.

It is 2:27 PM.

Pretty much I’m limited to coverage via the Internet.

Please feel free to update me here in this thread. Know that when Philly wins a champion ship the economy historically tanks. Pretty much the Eagles winning the Super Bowl would support both superstition and history.

We need to disempower the Orange House. Right now the Donald has a 53% approval rating. The purpose of an needed economic downturn is to wake up the voters who supported the Donald.

Don’t forget to Boycott McDonalds. Not only does Ronald and Donald both have orange hair, both are clowns. Remember that McDonalds openly supported Donald the Clown in having him work the drive up window as a promotion and endorsement.

Seems like the “No-spend” economy is getting traction as a form of protest.

Shut down the economy as much as you can…

17 to 0 Eagles.

Eagle defense is killing the Cheif’s offence.

Brutal…

The Chiefs though are still very capable…

I want the Eagles to make and sustain that historic pattern.

Cal
 
2 minute warning in the first-half.

The Eagles miss a third down pass opportunity and are forced to punt.

Hoping for either another Eagles score or a 17-0 first-half shut-out.

Go Eagles... Go Eagles Defense…

8:13 PM

Cal
 
Defense put on the pressure and forced another interception.

Eagles have possession and 1:45 on the clock.

Go Eagles offense. Please hurry up and score again.

Would be wonderful for a first-half shutout.

Now the odds certainly have changed. The Eagles are favored.

Go Eagles…

Cal
 
24-0 Eagles and now it is half-time.

Multiple interceptions. The Eagle’s defense shut down the Chiefs offense.

I did not expect a shutout in the first half, especially against a Chief explosive offense. The Chief’s are still a very dangerous opponent.

As I remember in last year’s Super Bowl some penalty’s against the Eagles hurt them. This year it seems some penalty against the Chiefs helped the Eagles advance the ball and get a first down.

In the second half it will likely be crucial to avoid penalties that basically defy one of the laws of street-fighting, and that is never give an opponent an advantage.

Pretty much the second-half will be just following the first 5 rules of street fighting.

No fight is over until your opponent is incapacitated. There are 30 more minutes to this game.

The Eagles need to keep it clean and avoid penalties.

Go Eagles…

Make history…

Cal
 
A comment was made that the Chiefs are a team that does well in the second-half.

The Eagles have to fight an opponent who is fighting from a corner. No time to choke.

Remember the 5 rules of street-fighting.

Back to guitar practice. I’m playing a guitar that formally had Ginzo fret ends that could cut you like a knife. Now what a guitar. Not only mucho good looking, but also plays and sounds well. Killer…

Cal
 
The Eagles has had their prized running back shut down so far in this game. Hmmm…

Also this points spread at half-time is just one point shy of the biggest ever Super Bowl comeback ever. This is the position the Chiefs are presently in. Shut-out in the first-half and the Chiefs would have to make a remarkable comback.

Go Eagles go.

Seems in the first-half the Chiefs had a few penalties against them. Remember Eagles, never give an opponent any advantage.

Cal
 
Eagles have the ball 3rd down and they need 5 yards. The quarterback breaks for a 15 yard gain, Next play a 10 yard run.

25 yards in two plays…

My hope is the Eagle’s running back has fresh legs to open up the game.

Bet MGM just gave out a rating that the Eagles have a 99% chance of winning.

Go Eagles.

Cal
 
7 minutes into the 3rd quarter and the Eagles have the ball 1st down and goal.

Brutal…

Some commentary is the big five of the Chiefs can’t contain the big 5 of the Eagles. Head to head the big boys on the Eagles front line are a problem for the Chiefs.

Then the rest of the coverage in is the field leaving no openings for passing.

More Eagles domination.

Wonder if the Eagles scored yet?

Go Eagles.

Cal
 
27-0 Eagles.

A field goal for the Eagles and burning the clock.

The Chiefs lose on a drive.

Getting pretty close to the 4th quarter.

Running the ball, and killing the clock is a good strategy for the Eagles.

Cal
 
First down for the Eagles and then a 46 yard pass for another touchdown. Then the extra point.

34-0 Eagles.

2:49 seconds left in the 3rd quarter…

Cal
 
Danger: the Chiefs gain with a 50 yard pass and are at the Eagle’s 40 yard line.

Likely the most explosive move by the Chiefs tonight.

The word blowout and shame-game is beginning to circulate.

Cal
 
34-6 Eagles.

The talk is the “List of Shame” for lopsided Super Bowls.

Not sure about the extra point…

At least not a blowout.

Cal
 
The extra point must of been blocked. Still 34-6 Eagles.

12:00 minutes remain in the 4th quarter and the Eagles made a few plays and are now “on the doorstep” of the Chief’s Red-Zone.

Cal
 
Wow. On the first play of a Chiefs drive. Mahomes gets steam rolled by a monster big guy like in a game of Lacrosse in a ball drill.

The football is stripped and then the Eagles take possession again in Chief territory.

The big guy pretty much body slammed Mahomes. Mucho brutal…

Cal
 
3-plays and no first down for the Eagles, then the 50 yard field goal is attempted and it is drilled home.

40-6 Eagles.

A little more than 8 minutes left in the game.

I would say this game was a text book mass-A-Curr. Pretty brutal both offense and defense.

So now the superstition. Whenever any Philly major sports team wins a championship the economy tanks.

Pretty much a remarkable pattern in history. So pretty much expect the markets to tank and then the real austerity begins.

You know I believe in divine intervention…

Fly Eagles Fly…
