Did you watch the SuperBowl? What did you think?

Posted: **Mon Feb 02, 2015 12:35 pm**

I did off and on. Had people over.

It's simple, really. Super Bowl winning 101 (from a n00b): If you have Marshawn Lynch, you don't throw on 2nd and Goal.

Isn't it funny how the Seahawks lost the same way they essentially sealed the deal against Carolina in the playoffs (goal line interception)?

Posted: **Mon Feb 02, 2015 2:21 pm**

Sure (I didn't watch it).

Was this year's Super Bowl fun to watch?

Posted: **Mon Feb 02, 2015 3:44 pm**

How would I know? It bored me before it even started so I did a binge watch of Arrested Development.

Does it really matter in the grand scheme of things who won the Super Bowl?

Nope, not a whit! But only doing/enjoying things that matter in the Grand Scheme of Things would lead to a pretty crippling existence for most folks, methinks....
