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…
