That the weather is nice and warm on Super Bowl Sunday so I can ride and ignore all the hype.
I enjoy football but.....I'd rather watch real football (a.k.a. soccer). At least those athletes play without a break for 45 minutes a half, instead of run play/time out/grunt/run play/smash/time out/commercial break/line up/commercial break/grunt........
Of course, I would not be such a sour-grapes if the Seahawks had beaten Green Bay, OR if Tiki was still playing for the Giants...
And what kind of name is PLAXICO????

Temp -4, windchill -24. Whoa.
I'm sure the players have ways to handle it, but what about the fans?

GO PACK!
Now this is football. Last week was the snow, this week the cold. MAN, I love football up here. It's not the same when they play in a dome or in a normally warm place. But that's just me. My brains been in the cold for a very long time
I'm getting very nervous in these last few minutes. Trek, get on that bike!Dar

I can not believe NY missed that kick! That kick would have been it! Bet they have a new place kicker next year!
Someone tell the new york coach to put something on he's face. He is going to loose he's nose.
Oh 4 degrees cooler now! Ouch!Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

Someone tell me who won?
None of this is making sense to me, and the commentators are talking like Green Bay won, but then the ads for hats and T-shirts say NY are the champs."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

A very original one. Reminds me of plexi-glass or Texaco. Very strange!
Knotted, the Giants took it.
I can't believe that the Giants took it!! SAD!!! He kicks it when it counts.
And yes, the bikini girls must have been drunk out of their minds.
I rode the trainer for a very short time during the 1st game - 30 minutes or so - I HATE THE TRAINER. I would rather peel scabs off of my eyeballs. There, I feel better now that I have said that. I will get on the stupid thing again, I just know it.Last edited by Flybye; 01-20-2008 at 07:55 PM.

Yahoo! The Giants won. Little Eli is going to the Superbowl just like his big brother, Peyton. I know there are some other Ole Miss grads here that were happy to see that. I like Brett, too--another Mississippi boy. But Eli went to Ole Miss--like his father. I will really date myself now. I was at Ole Miss when Archie was. Olivia lived next door to me my freshman year. Or maybe I should say I lived next door to her!

We'll be on the last day of our trip to VT. I do not like football. I was praying the Patriots lost so I didn't have to hear any more about the them on the news. I don't care where Tom Brady is going to buy a house... I don't care if they win, either.
We always go out to eat at restaurants where it is hard to get in on days when there is a football play off, etc.
Now, the Red Sox are a different story. But, even though I like baseball, I don't sit and watch it, unless I am at home, with nothing else to do. It's not like, "come on over and we'll watch the game."

Super Bowl Sunday = GREAT day to go out for dinner! We have one kid with autism and one kid with food allergies, so restaurants are normally more trouble than they're worth. On Super Bowl Sunday they are deserted and no one minds if one kid hangs out under another table the whole time and the chef has plenty of time to answer questions about ingredients in food.
I have no idea which teams are even playing this year (not the Ravens - I know that much)--I'm justl looking forward to a relaxing night out!
