Superbowl now over.

Yeah, I'm disappointed that the Patriots lost, but, damn, what a great game.

I just walked in from watching at chez [livejournal.com profile] tapuz and [livejournal.com profile] laurens10, thinking "gosh, that was one of the better football games I've seen in a while.

Flipped on the TV to see if House was on yet, and was greeted by some commentator or another saying what a terribly badly played game it was (but at least it was close). This, THIS is what's wrong with NFL football, far beyond cheating or juicing or anything on the field. It's the idiots misunderstanding the game for the casual fans.

BTW, most of the ads sucked. I think this every year, but in particular I think it was true this time.

Pitchers and catchers in just under a fortnight.

After dinner (6PM), I wanted to call and see if I could come over, but I figured that it was too late.

Alone, I usually don't watch games.

The real problem was that I was at work from 5 to 8, and wasn't home until after 9. . .

*nod* So, I wasn't far off. I was home by 9PM too.

Well except for the bad officiating, the lack of calls. Really the refs needed Bill to tell them the Giants had an extra player on the field? Manning can stand in the middle of what looked like a defensive linemen huddle and walk out untouch.


Just about the worst game I have watched in a while.

Bad Brady, no super models!

so bummed about the Patriots losing but at least we weren't bored during the game. How were they able to keep hitting Brady all night?
