Super Bowl musings...

Some random thoughts while watching the Super Bowl...)

1) Jordan Sparks did a good job with the anthem - normally, we cringe in pain when a "pop" star sings it, but her version was nice - go Jordan!

2) the commercials have been pretty good - so far our favorites include: breathing fire with Bud Lite, dancing lizards, Rocky budweiser horse, and Godfather/car in bed.

3) the game has been pretty slow...the score has been stagnant at 3/7 for 3 quarters now...someone won 2x in the school pool so far....

4) yeah - oboe in a football commercial - gotta love it! And he plays pretty well - Let there be more OBOE!!

5) Giants just scored in the 4th quarter- oooh, there may not be a perfect Patriots season...

6) wonder what happened to my Big Wheels - we would love to have a derby like they do on that commercial...ah, youth.

7) Hmmm...feeling tired - Rob has a "superbowl recovery" day off from work tomorrow - what!?! Not fair - I want a day, too...

8) Do you think FOX wants us to watch "House" and the "Sarah Conner Chronicles"? Every other commercial seems to be for one of the two...who writes the commercials? Are they affected by the writer's strike?

9) mmmm...chili and wings are good. So is chocolate cake.

10) Will Ferrell just did a commercial and had the best line of the night: "Bud Lite...suck it."

11) Patriots score - 14-10 Patriots with 2 minutes to go in the 4th quarter...we're not sure who to root for - torn between the perfect season bid and our home state of NY...okay, Rob just decided he's rooting for NY - correction - he is now rooting for the Victoria Secret model....typical.

12) agh!! sickened and repulsed by "Amp" commercial - do not ever show jumper cable dancing man again.

13) 1:43 left - there's still time!!

14) oooh....almost an interception by the Pats...and holy crap - Manning fought off a sack and threw a pass to Tyree - what a catch!!

15) 59 seconds to go...throw the ball!!!

16) woooooooooooo - touch down NY......this is crazy! Here come the longest 29 seconds ever...for both teams.

17) The Giants are not going to let them get close to the end zone....I predict that it is over for NE.

18) Giants win! - there are some very happy people who bet on them, I am sure - time for bed.
