Pass the Bud Light and Cialis

Lets talk Super Bowl.

At our house, all is well in the land of people obsessed with teams from Boston. There will be no break for those of us who tire of this… Red Sox this, Patriots that, blah blah blah blah. I am thrilled your team won; now, can we just let it go?

I think Andy Reid, coach of the Eagles, does not own a watch, or missed the concept of not using up the clock while trailing. I can only assume someone must have noticed the time just tick-tocking away. Or, was I the only one who wondered what point spread Reid had bet on this game?

The game itself was pretty good. This, of course, comes from someone who usually watches the game for the commercials.

The halftime show was ok. And some of the commercials were pretty cute. Apparently, the most Tivo’d ad was the Godaddy.com, where an actress breaks a strap and comes close to exposure. The commercial was to run again during the broadcast, but was yanked by the NFL after complaints from the FCC. And you thought the play calling was tough.

Ok, let me be the first to say that I think this safe and sane approach to the Super Bowl was kinda boring. I didn’t get too excited about the whole Janet Jackson-thing last year and was frankly amazed at the entire “scandal” it caused. I believe the best comment following the entire thing was from a Washington Post writer, who said he had little trouble trying to explain the wardrobe malfunction to his kids as compared to trying to explain a 4-hour erection, compliments of the folks from Cialis.

Wood is good. Boobs are bad? Yikes I am seriously confused.
