Super Bowl XLIX hyped up or much to do about nothing?

Super Bowl XLIX will be played between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks. It seems there is more drama outside of the game than the game itself.  The NFL (NOT our FAULT LEAGUE) still has yet to give a plausible explanation for DeflateGate even though the Patritos seem to want everyone to believe that they did nothing wrong and that the footballs deflated themselves, 11 out of the 12 footballs. The NFL (NOT our FAULT LEAGUE) continues to go after Seattle's Marshawn Lynch for not wanting to talk to the media and even when he did address the media, although he didn't do anything but give the same answer to all the questions (Lynch probably should of hired his own PR people to help him look better) the NFL is still deciding if they are going to fine him $500k for his antics. Where is Roger Goodell with all this happening? And the NFL continues to put off its findings on the deflated footballs, the same findings they promised everyone they would share last Monday but now want us to wait weeks, if not months, who do they think they are kidding? We all are used to the PR spin doctors that the NFL has become when it comes to issues that have repeatedly tried to broom under the rug that continues to cause Black Eye after Black Eye to their reputation and undermines the integrity of the game. The NFL continues to hope the Super Bowl and all its hype will overshadows all the outside drama but in reality it seems that even though many will still watch the Super Bowl most of those will be in Boston and Seattle and those die hard footballs fans but many others will only be watching for the commercials and the halftime show and there are many others who truly couldn't care about the game this year at all. In talking to many around the country this week, allot of people are on the fence as to whether they will watch the game or not. Those that said they might, said it would be for the commercials and nothing more. Most are discouraged and are questioning the NFL for all its troubles this year and allowing the integrity of the game to be questioned time and time again.  No doubt the NFL has a huge PR issue right now and allowing issues like DeflateGate to go on and on will only cause their viewership and fan base to erode at a slow pace. I would like to know what the true viewership of the Super Bowl will be just for the game, minus the commercials and the halftime show.  Both the Patriots and the Seahawks will be well prepared and it should be a good game on the field between these 2 teams. But I do not see it getting the hype of previous Super Bowl games as much of the hype has been diminished by the off the field antics that the NFL continues to allow to go on and also more is being made about the Commercials and Katy Perry and the halftime show than the game itself.  Will you be watching the game for the game or for just the commercials and halftime show? Hopefully for the NFL, it will be for the game this year, but I am not so sure anymore.      @cupofjoeinthed
