It's A Sweet Life: Super Bore 2014

Well, that was a disappointment.

And I'm not just talking about the fact that the team I was rooting for lost the game. Although, that was disappointing too. Not that I'm just a huge Bronco's fan...but I like the Manning boys. I've always thought they seemed humble and genuine but after ESPN aired The Book of Manning, it made me like them even more. I don't know, they just seem like good people. I'm sure anything can be edited to put people in a good light but ...it just seems authentic.

And then the Peyton comeback story. I was rooting for him just so he could give a big, fat "Ha!" to the Colts. Then they choked. And Manning never got his "How do you like me now?" moment.

And was it just me or was that the most unsuper bowl game ever? First, it didn't seem to get the hype that it usually does. Or maybe that was just me...because I missed the buzz. Maybe because everyone was focused on the weather concern...but it just didn't seem to have the media energy that it normally does.

Then the game itself just kinda sucked. I'm sorry, if you're a Seahawks fan I'm sure you're happy that your team won, but can you really say that was a good game? Blowouts aren't fun to watch. By the third quarter everyone knew it was over, game done.

And what was with all the sucky commercials? There were like two that made me laugh. The rest just flopped. Maybe my super bowl commercial expectations are too high but I'm a product of the Budweiser frogs, Cindy Crawford's Pepsi, and Clydesdales farting days - I have high standards for super bowl commercial comedy.

At least we got to spend the evening in the company of some friends. And with a game like that, we did a lot of catching up. They were great hosts and we enjoyed good food and even better conversation - guess I'll consider that a win!

And a special shout out to my husband, who managed to snap a thousand pictures of me in every unflattering and awkward position possible. And these aren't even the very worst ones...
