super bowl

A. The Super Bowl is the biggest spectacle in sports. The biggest game on the biggest stage in primetime with millions of people watching. A day people jump on a bandwagon and cheer for a team. Parties are a major theme with many people gathering in a house to watch the game, cookout and have a few beers. Celebs throw huge parties to watch the game. A Concert was put on to raise money for the victims of Haiti. To help restore and rebuild a country devasted by a tragic event. Also leading up to the Super Bowl pre-game coverage starting from right after the confrence title games ESPN starts talking Super Bowl. Yes it gets old just like having to hear the will Brett Farve come back or is Barbaro still alive. Personally I could careless I sang hallejuah when they said Barbaro was dead. To me thats how Super Bowl coverage is. Its annoying and I'm sick of hearing it.
B. This years game I was rooting for the Colts. Big Peyton Manning fan and would have love to see his legacy cemented as an NFL great. Two of the greatest offenses and two of the best quarterbacks in the NFL now going at it. The pressure was all on Peyton. Trying to cement a legacy and beat his father's old team and the team he grew up rooting for as a kid. The commercials werent as funny as years before but there were still a few. Companies put alot of money into putting in a Super Bowl commercial because the revenue generated after is high.
C. THe Super Bowl is an American spectacle, but still in my mind is not America's pastime. Maybe this is because I'm a baseball nut and that sport is my love. The Super Bowl is the most watched sport on telivision with over 105 million watching the game. Its all about having a good time, getting together and having a few beers and watching a football game.
