Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

BTW - what the hell was up with Prince covering a Foo Fighters song during the halftime show? Somewhere Dave Grohl is weeping.

    idk but many people were weeping because none of the dancers boobs popped out.
    Lots of people have high expectations for the halftime show ever since that incident.

    What if J.T. were to run out on stage and tear the artist formerly known as prince's pants off?

      if you have broadband, have a friend in America point his webcam to the game and stream it to you via Skype.

        Why do they call it the super bowl when it's clearly rugby (football for you sillies)?

            Rex is our QB. Rex is our QB. Rex is our QB. I won't be shocked when the Bears take a QB very late in the 1st round of the Draft.

                The Colts picked apart the Bear's defense. Grossman certainly didn't help but the Colt's won this. It certainly wasn't gift wrapped for them

                Any one think Rex will end up as a backup someplace next year? Perhaps for the New York Jets?

                  Nothing Rex could do from the sidelines.

                  It would have been refreshing to see the Bears D make a stop on 3rd and anything - still, what great conditioning they must have been in to be on the field for so long and still be as effective as they were early on.

                  Indeed. When you look at the times of possession it's pretty stark. The Bears' defense simply couldn't stop the Colts' offense. Rex didn't help matters any, but he might have redeemed himself if he knew he could rely on the D making a few stops outside of scoring position. I think Dungy may understand Smith's defense a little too well, whereas he's running an offense that wasn't used in Tampa Bay, so Lovie's having to deal with that from scratch.
