Another Super Bowl come and gone and you are probably fighting that Monday morning hang over or are on your 5th trip to the bathroom because of all the wings, pizza and chili you consumed last night.
The last two years we have been spoiled by great games for Super Bowl Sunday and although last nights game didn’t measure up to the bar set by its two predecessors it was still an excellent football game. When you hold this game up to the measuring stick for what can be considered a great football game this one had most of the elements. A big comeback, a game changing turnover, a ballsy call by a coach (the onside kick), an underdog pulling off the victory and a god awful half time show…wait what? (Sorry but The Who sucked)
When you really think about the game the only thing missing was a last second drive capped off by some huge play. We got the big play with the interception but Manning just didn’t have enough magic to pull off another miracle.
Kudos to the Saints though, I think a lot of us with no real rooting interest (thanks Bears) were pulling for them, I know I was…kinda. So hope you enjoyed your Super Sunday and that you weren’t as stupid as my friend Jim. As you can see I correctly predicted the Saints win and a Brees MVP…Jimmy however did not do the same. Lesson learned, lesson learned.
Low blow bro…low blow.
