My Take on the Super Bowl

  • Katrina - I get it.  Katrina was bad, people were sad and the Saints make everything all better.  But just take a time out and think about the poor people of Indianapolis.  At least the folks in New Orleans have Mardi Gras, great food and jazz.  Imagine being sentenced to a lifetime in Indianapolis listening to John Cougar Mellencamp and eating Orville Redenbacher Popcorn.
  • The Game - Awesome!  Few penalties and turnovers, some gutsy calls and drama all the way to the bitter end.
  • Commercials the Good - Betty White, the little kid who tells his mom's gentleman caller to keep his hands off his mom and his Doritos and the "slug bug" VW commercial.
  • Commercials the Bad - Anything with half naked men or portraying Budweiser as a safe alternative to crack.
  • Commercials the Weird - The Kia toys commercial.  I guess one must be high to truly appreciate aesthetics of Kia.  And what was up with Tim Tebow tackling his mom.  Kind of oedipul if you ask  me.
  • The Who -  Loved their 12 minute melody of CSI theme songs.
  • Most Touching Moment - Drew Brees holding his little boy on podium with the Lombardi Trophy nearby.
