American Football National Championships
On Sunday, I got together with some friends for the American football championship game (you can’t call it the S**** B*** because of legalities.) We had some good food, good salsa, good company, and a good time. The kids seemed to enjoy themselves. I’m not sure if the women enjoyed themselves because they were all upstairs in the dining room. I’m not even sure that they watched the game. All of the guys were downstairs watching the game, and we had a good time hanging out.
The commercials this year were ok, but not great. The first commercial was a FedEx commercial that represented zero-G on the moon. I thought every high school physics student learned that the moon has 1/6th of Earth’s gravity. However, the commercial did end with a great funny moment. The best commercial of the game was the Snickers commercial. Now I have a new pickup line, “Hey baby. Want to share a Snickers?”
Despite the lackluster commercials, I still enjoyed the game. It was a comedy of errors at many times because of the rain. The opening kick-off had me scared (I was rooting for the Colts,) but a friend of mine reminded me that the Colts are pretty damn good when it comes to playing from behind. My friend was quite right, and the Colts made an amazing comeback. The rain made things a nice touch. I always love watching football in inclement weather. It really makes the players try harder to do things that are generally easy for them. The extra effort separates the exceptional players from those that are merely good.
