Would someone be willing to give me a brief catch-up for the Super Bowl tonight? [View all]

I'm going to a Super Bowl party tonight. I used to watch college football but I've never watched much pro ball and things have been pretty busy in my life lately so I literally had to look up who is playing tonight.

If anyone feels like giving a summary of the two teams, what to watch for tonight, etc., I would be grateful!

Most people I know not the fans if either want Phillies to win. LakeArenal Feb 2023 #11

Eagles, Phillies are a MLB team. But I'd also prefer a Philly win. TeamProg Feb 2023 #15

There's a joke in there though: "I don't care much about who wins the football game, maybe a TeamProg Feb 2023 #20

I'm a Brewer fan so winning is out of my scope of possibilities. LakeArenal Feb 2023 #39
