Unless Your Team Is In It, It's Not About The Game

Last year's Super Bowl happened to be a fantastic game.   It was great action all the way to the end.  But generally, the Super Bowl really isn't about the game itself.

Other than Super Bowl two years ago, between my Bears and the Colts, where I actually cared who won the game, the Super Bowl is about having fun with friends.  It's about enjoying your favorite guy foods, having some brews, and enjoying yourself.  Essentially, it's a holiday for men.

Seriously, can you remember specifics of most Super Bowls?  Unless you're name is Al Michaels or Chris Berman, probably not.

So when you watch the game tomorrow, unless you're a Steelers or Cardinals fan, just enjoy the fact you have an excuse to sit around with your friends, eat wings and pizza, drink some beer and enjoy.

Because hey, when else can you do this and have it be an accepted practice any other time of the year?

Ask your girlfriend or wife or significant other any other time to go out on a Sunday to watch a sporting event with the guys.  See how that goes for you.

Take advantage of tomorrow.  Those of you who can't get enough football, this is your last shot until the crappy preseason action in August.  

Enjoy it now.  Enjoy the game.  And eat some wings.
