As I write this, kick off to Super Bowl XLII is about 2 hours away. That means Fox's coverage has been going on for about 6 hours.
The game promises intrigue, regardless of the outcome. Both the Pats and Giants have a bit of the "America's team" aura around them. Also adding to the American feel of the event we have Ryan Seacrest to interview celebrities on the red carpet (yes the super bowl now has a red carpet). To top it off I'm enjoying a nice Baltika beer, straight from....Russia, a nice lager whose website I just "stumbled". And yes I'm still sitting in StumbleUpon purgatory with my one fan ROTUS.
I think the Patriots will win. I'm a big Brady fan because he went to Michigan, and no, I'm not one of those Johnny come lately UM fans that like him now but didn't like him at Michigan. I've liked every single starting quarterback at Michigan with the exception of Drew Henson. I probably only didn't like him because he was about the same age and I was jealous of his "golden boy" fate. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy about him being an absolute flop. Although a big part of that is because he left Michigan early to be a Yankee- damn New York. Ah, maybe that's another reason I want the Patriots to win.
So now its sit back, relax, order pizza four hours before its needed, enjoy the commercials, a great game and a real American tradition.

Ooof!! Was it a sad day in Ryanville last night? Just read your post. Being a Coloradoan, I completely understand getting your hopes up for a perfect season then falling very short. It was an excellent game (I hear) nonetheless.
Hope the beer was excellent!
We cried here too. We have been big time Pat fans since we lived in Maine.
Oh what happened to them?
I still love them though:)
Wasn't it the Patriots that were caught cheating, taping the other teams signals?
I watched some of the game a lot of the commercials, but I am glad the Giants won because of the whole cheating escapade with the Patriots.
