I told myself, I will not write an obligatory Superbowl post. But, sorry, I seem to actually care about this football game today. Many times in the last few years I could have given a shit about the biggest football game of the year. It’s such a marker in American life. What’s funny about my new found love of the super bowl is where it stems from. Here are the reasons I am actually stoked on this game:
1. Championship games are almost always interesting. It’s the best of the best.
2. I feel like I have already won because I didn’t sit through a bunch of lame games throughout the season to get to this one. Like I know something others don’t. That you can enjoy football and not watch it all the time or know who the players are. I am very aware that this ISN’T a secret. But denial can be fun.
3. I am going to be watching with a bunch of other people. Big groups always make sports more fun. Especially since they can clue me into who the players are and what is going on half the time.
4. Food is awesome. Especially the food at a superbowl parties. No one feels like a fatty because we are all eating the same horrible calorie rich fare.
With all that being said, I am routing for the Packers. Who I decided was my pony when I was half asleep yesterday morning. I have to say this really beats looking for job, at least no one will judge me.
