A running recap, watching the Super Bowl with the family… a few (well, sort of) observations, as well…
- Lots of hype… lots of fanfare.
- Loved the National Anthem — made me miss Whitney Houston.
- Tom Brady… he’ll be in the Hall of Fame one day.
- Russell Wilson in the HOF? The jury’s still out.
- Wish I fully trusted the Patriots.
- Budweiser commercials always tug on my heartstrings.
- (Is it time for Katy Perry yet?)
- Wow… fascinating Coke commercial; can’t tell if I like it or not.
- Lovin’ the avocado “First Draft Ever” commercial.
- Cris Colinsworth — wasn’t he fired by NBC? Oh, wait… that’s next season.
- Brady is amazing. Did I say that already?
- It will be interesting to see how Deflate-Gate plays itself out; does the owner really think he deserves an apology?
- I’m liking that fluorescent green accent on Seattle’s uniforms.
- Why do grown men keep pulling those mouth guards out of their mouth?
- The Patriots are dominating thus far with their pass defense. Oops… maybe not.
- Doritos always has the best commercials, although the car companies are giving them a run for their money this year.
- The Nissan “Cats in the Cradle” commercial just made me cry.
- The Nationwide commercial? Fascinating. Probing. I think I liked it, but the timing seems off… especially in between the beer and chips.
- Paul McCartney, Will Ferrell, etc. at the game; my son just asked how much it cost celebrities to be there.
- Marshawn Lynch is tough.
- Why does Belichick have a pencil behind his ear? Is he taking notes?
- The “Breaking Bad” guy made me laugh — as did the dual advertisement for Fiat and Viagra.
- Halftime. Tied.
- Son just pondered the wisdom of utilizing Super Bowl advertising on social issues. Great question. Love his pondering.
- Ok, the neutered cat commercial just made the entire room laugh out loud.
- Katy Perry… the sound isn’t great but the dancing is good — except for the dancing beach balls and palm trees. “Firework” was excellent!
- Love P&G’s “Run Like a Girl” commercial.
- Seattle ahead.
- Oooh… the INflated football just doesn’t travel as far.
- Way to use the ref as a pick.
- All the “Saturday Night Live” hosts… love it!
- Did I mention this is a good game?
- “Patriot nation” means different things to different people.
- Crunch time coming.
- Game getting closer; did I mention this was only a game?
- Chicken wings; hmmm…. do people really eat all those chicken wings?
- Josh McDaniels is on the sidelines encouraging Brady; isn’t he the former coach who drafted Tim Tebow?
- Patriots back up. Well done.
- Seattle battles. Driving. Done. Those end zone INT’s are killer.
- New England wins. Wow.
- New England wins.
- Hope they are good guys. I like to see the good guys win.
Ok, ok… so maybe a little more than a few observations. Here’s to next season. P.S. It was just a game, right?
Respectfully…

Exact same comments at OUR house! Well, at least most of them. Lots of grumbling during the commercials. They used to be the hilight of the game. This time that final interception at the end of the game for a last second win was the hilight. Shades of Seattle vs. Green Bay!
