Super Bowl Showdown

My plan of briefly blogging about the then upcoming Super Bowl, quickly went down the drain as I found many other interesting things to waste my time doing last Sunday. So in case you have lived under a rock for the last week, the New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots 21-17.

There is something about Super Bowl Sunday that just gets me excited. As I have previously blogged about, I happen to be a huge NFL fan. I have been for a long time and plan on being one forever. Although my two teams didn't make it this year, I guess thats what you get for having one in each of the past two Super Bowls, I found myself really looking forward to this game.

Because my family tends to be such crazy fans, we normally don't go to parties our host any ourselves. We have made a tradition of chips, dip, pizza and pop for the night of the Super Bowl. When were fortunate enough to have our teams in the big games, a cake is in order. Anyway the food was just as delicious as ever this year.

For anyone who truly knows me, they would know that I definitely wanted to see the Patriots get crushed. I despise the whole franchise and especially their coach. It seemed weird cheering for the team who took my Packers out of contention but it was completely worth it. I thought the game was a good one. After all the right team did win and it had an exciting ending thats all I could have asked for! I would consider myself to be an Eli Manning fan so it was nice seeing him have some success, especially against Tom Brady.

It wouldn't be Super Bowl Sunday without the discussion of the commercials and entertainment. There weren't too many commercials that I thought were that great. To me it just seems like the hype is what makes these car, movie and Budweiser advertisements superior. I did think Kelly Clarkson's rendition of the National Anthem was great, I applaud her on her performance. Halftime was neither here nor there, I think it was better than the past few years combined though.

I think that covers it all, now I just have to wait for next season and hope my team can make it in 2013!
