Who needs the Super Bowl? There's a Sale!
You know, I've never taken much interest in sports, football in particular. The sport never made sense to me. Why call it football when there's basically one guy on the team who kicks the ball.
And he doesn't seem to do it that often. Add to that the fact that the big football fan in my family was my grandmother. It just took something away from the sport when Gran's cheering for the Cowboys.
In high school, the coaches always wanted me to try out for the football team. I never took them seriously. Didn't they see me in gym class? Didn't they know that I tended to fall over giggling when tackled? Of course, I also fell over giggling when running track, playing baseball, or any other physical activity. It was a defense mechanism.
I knew why they wanted me on the team. I was rather large and looked like I would be difficult to knock over. I'd like to draw your attention back to the whole 'giggle and fall over' thing.
So, I'm not watching the Super Bowl. Hell, I'm not even sure who's playing. Let me check.
The Patriots and The Eagles. Wow, Could we get more All-American?
Instead of watching the Super Bowl, the Half-Time show, The Pre-game Show, The Post Pre-game Pre-game Show, and all those commercials that we will see way too often in the next few weeks... I went shopping.
