5. *raises hand*
The Super Bowl is just an excuse to cook really unhealthy food and sit with the family for a couple of hours.

11. The food is good! ;)
I saw this post on this other blog and there seems to be someone there who would like info about Ohio elections and maybe protest situations. Here's the link. Maybe you can respond. The poster's name is Rosa.

14. Hand is raised.
I'll probably choose game time to go to the grocery store and run errands. Shouldn't be much traffic at all :P

15. I'll raise anything you'd like. This glorification of a kids playtime game
Edited on Sun Feb-05-06 11:31 AM by HypnoToad
is utterly silly. Oooh! Look at the men pick up an oddly shaped ball and run around with it, avoiding being ran into by a bunch of other men who want the ball too!

DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB!

You know, if people PLAYED THE GAME instead of eating frito lay chips and drinkin' pepsi all the doo-dah-day, they'd be thinner and happier. And have better teeth, carbonated sugar drinks ruin the enamel of one's teeth.

At the ripe old age of 42 I can honestly say I have never watched a superbowl.

but it is the last football game of the season and I love football.It's got to be watched it's an American institution,and it gets my mind off of politics for a while.

it is a waste of time.

38. What the hell are you talking about?
I'm a fan of both football and politics.

I don't mind people who aren't interested, but keep the smugness to yourselves.

43. I hear you
Most people that I know that are "sports fans" don't care about politics. They care about makin money, getting laid, and "Go Yankees!"

Most political scientist don't care too much about sports, or other trivial shit.

I'm glad that you like both. I stand by my post. Ask any self described Steelers fan what is more important, Santorum losing in 2006 or the Steelers winning today. What do you think most will say?

At least sports fans care about sports. I know many a man that would rather fuck Paris Hilton then have peace in the middle east.

Jah got to follow your bliss.

31. Not much caring here though I'm going to a game party.
One of my dearest friends asked me to come by, have dinner and get my game on. I'll go just because he offered. I wish I was feeling better though. Friendship transcends everything, most of the time.

34. How about a little Super Bowl song?
Superbowl patriots cheer half-time propaganda,
Fake titties, tooting trumpets, "FREEDOM" is in lights
And is shitting itself out of Post-Hippy "Call me Sir" Paul McCartney's multi-millionaire fucking mouth
Machine guns raised! Kegs secure! Beers held high!
The (Presidential) liars in the house!
Bono's in the house!
We're DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!
FUCKING DOOMED!


Ahh, Propagandhi, how I love thee.

36. So raised
I don't even think the commercials are that great, by and large. Especially when you factor in all the time, effort, and money that goes into them.

37. Yo
American football is a joke — guys padded up with more body armor than a soldier, and they have rules about whom you can hit and where. :eyes:

Nothing is more over-hyped than a Super Bore, except maybe Christmas.

Now, if they went back to leather "helmets" and guys playing both ways, it might interest me.

39. I'm going grocery shopping during the first half.
I figure the store will be totally vacant. I'll try to be back to watch the halftime show. And then I'm going to steamclean my office carpet.

I didn't know when it was or who was playing. Really.

It's just a football game, for cryin' out loud, yet the MSM treat it as an event of cosmic significance.
