The only thing to do at this point, for those of us who aren't in Phoenix, is to ice down the beer and warm up the blackeyed peas and enjoy the game.
This is one of the reasons, you know, that we take so much interest in the trivial matters of politics and affairs of state around here at FR - the outcome in the end has more to do with the important matters of how we and our families live, and enjoy, life in the here and now than most people would think. If there were no sports, or music, or cooking, or house-building, or whatever else floats your particular boat, are we sure it would really even matter?
I concur. Thomas Sowell once said that "if you can't find the humor in politics, you'll go stark raving mad". Look at the DUmmies I know. They put on a really good facade about being footloose and fancy free, but they're absolutely miserable and have been for a while.
It's also a big reason why I jumped at the chance to take over the College Football Ping List. Now, I may come off as somewhat of a wise ass, but if I can get interaction from all of you with my graphics or my snide little remarks about each game...well, then it's all worth it.
Thanks for participating and reading the threads and hopefully it's as fun for me as it was for all of you.
