Super Wonderblog! The Highly Rated Fantastic Blog of Choice

  Well sports fans, another football season is in the books- or as the kids are calling them these days "inter-mails" (that's what they're using instead of books, right?)
That means the Super Bowl was just finished.  This may come as a shock to many of you, but I really like the Super Bowl.  Although it's not like I have much of a choice.  How could you not like anything that has "Super" in front of it?  Back when it was just called the "Meh.  Bowl" I don't think anyone cared.  I'm sure if ratings should ever start to decline (heaven forbid!) they'll just add a "fantastic" in there somewhere.
I really enjoyed the game though.  Proof?

Yeah that's right.  I'm cutting edge.  New Reese's minis, Chili Cheese Ruffles and Coke Zero.  The prototypical modern man.  And doesn't hurt to have a couple classics "Cool Ranch" Doritos, and some stuffed crust pizza hut.  And for desert?  Diabetes and high cholesterol!  Mmmm.

Things I also enjoyed about the game:

Christina Aguilera thinking she could make up for leaving out half the National Anthem by holding out the last note for the length of the verses she skipped.

Doritos (hallowed be thy name) incredibly awful commercials, and the fact they spent millions on them.

The Black Eyed Peas borrowing some of the Chinese from the '08 Olympic opening ceremonies.  (Although where were the drums?  Come on.)

Wanting to barf afterward- that means you ate your money's worth- really what the Superbowl is all about.

The shot of John Madden staring at his cell phone as if someone just explained the concept of texting to him for the first time.
What's a TEXTER?
The Puppy Bowl being mentioned no less than 5 times throughout the day.

Fighting with all of my willpower to avoid the typical 3rd quarter "post 1st half snacks halftime pizza" nap that seems to always take over during a slow part of the game.  Stayed awake!  In your face stomach!  Trying to knock me out to gain extra energy to digest all that junk.  Showed you.

That the Superbowl is slowly making its move to overtake Thanksgiving as America's unifying tradition that people gather together to eat and celebrate over.  I highly anticipate the day when schools are teaching children how John Elway sailed across the Deleware to discover America and break bread with the Chiefs and Redskins.

Oh yeah, and I think there was some game on.  I liked that too.
