Superbowl Sunday

It's that time of year again: The commercials that make you laugh, the halftime performances that no typical football fan would enjoy, and well to watch the same damn teams that are always in the Superbowl play each other. The Superbowl is known as one of my favorite American holidays, except this year I'm looking forward to everything but the game.

This year features the AFC's best record team the New England Patriots and the NFC's New York Football Giants.  For a brief history lesson, these are the two teams that played in the 2007 Super Bowl, Giants won by 3.



As exciting as the Superbowl should be, this year sucks in my honest opinion. Nobody really wants to watch these two teams play against each other. The only way that this Superbowl will be a maintainable watch is if and only if the commercials are good.

I'll be enjoying countless buffalo wings, smoked hot dogs in bbq sauce, and various other junk food tonight while watching some good commercials.

As for my game prediction being the typical sports nerd I am (when it comes to these two teams, I'm the farthest thing from a sports nerd though) I say Patriots win it 27-17, with Tom Brady being Super Bowl MVP (I'd say Rob Gronkowski but hes had injury trouble lately).

Farewell!

Update 9:20pm: Well that game was a miserable fail, the commercials were alright, the food was delicious as always, and the team I was rooting for ended up losing. Superbowl 44 is in the books and it's one I'll never turn back to. As a friend of mine on twitter said "Championships just mean your team used to be good."

Hope everyone has a lovely week, Go Bears!
