Great Game

Last night's Super Bowl was among the best of all time. As you all know, I am a homer, so last night's game did not feel the same without the Packers, especially because of how close they came to being there. There was no way I was cheering for the Patriots so, by default, the Giants were the team I pulled for. (Side note: Isn't it weird that three weeks ago I was a Giants fan when they played the Cowboys, two weeks ago I hated the Giants when they played the Packers, last night I was a Giants fan when they played the Patriots, and now I dislike the Giants again because they are not the Packers.)

I enjoyed watching the Patriots lose more than I enjoyed watching the Giants win. They were the "bad guys" and I enjoy watching the "bad guys" lose, whether it is the Yankees, Lakers (more in the past than today), or any other team that is thought to be head and shoulders above the rest of the league. I love when David slays Goliath!

Peyton's mentally challenged brother proved me wrong, again. I kept waiting for him to blow the game and he did not. What a brother duo? When has a pair of brothers ever won their sport's championship, and the MVP of that championship, in consecutive seasons? Never. Will it ever happen again? Probably not.

But, enough of that. It was a great game, but the greatest games have yet to happen in 2008. Those games begin in late March and end in late October (early November). Hopefully many of them involve the Brewers.
