Well, y’know...?

Life after Superbowl is rather dull, unless your team won.

Some days, my puns are worth the effort. Other days, I’d prefer they could be attributed to someone else.

Today, I just wish I had an audience worth looking at though the footlights....;o]

Well, that was an unusually good Super Bowl. I really didn’t have a dog in the fight, as it were, which has literally always been the case (other than rooting against Green Bay of course, when applicable, and rooting for the Bears during their glory season in the 1980s) because the Lions have only made it to the NFC championship game once, or for that matter, they’ve only won ONE playoff game in my lifetime.

Anyway, the game was excellent. I more or less expected the Patriots to break it loose at some point, especially in the second half. I don’t like Brady, but obviously he’s one of the very best QBs ever. I like Eli, the slightly bumbling younger Manning. OTOH, I don’t much like the Dolphins, and really hate the 1972 undefeated Dolphins reruns that get trotted out about week six each year when there is at least one undefeated team. The Patriots won 18 games straight in one season/post season, which is one more than the ‘72 Dolphins managed, so they can take comfort in that. Someday perhaps a team will go undefeated from a to z, and perhaps some team may someday go undefeated for two straight seasons.
