superbowls

enjoyed the superbowl from the perspective of loving the city of seattle and wanting to live near there one day, but otherwise it was a sad day for one of the greatest quarterbacks who ever played the game, a quarterback that history will asterisk as one who does not win the big game... yeah, he has one superbowl win... but he has twp superbowl losses and a record twelve playoff losses, most by any quarterback... he's had the bad lucky of playing in the time of brady, who used to own him, but he still does not seem to be able to handle the big games... his teams don't seem to handle the big games well either with many foolish mistakes helping, receivers who don't know which direction to run, penalties by a defense that does not tackle well when it matters most, and a few poor calls by the referees, but what matters most is - does the quarterback does not rally his team when it counts... in this case, the answer is no much more often than it is yes... on the other hand, the best defense in football played like the best defense in football and took advantage of every mistake the best offense in football made... four times in superbowl history the best defense played the best offense and all four times the defense won...

meanwhile, in the interest of complete disclosure about superbowls, the food was good and plentiful and after indulging all night during the game, the toilet is clogged... i mean mine at home... i mean by me alone... the first huge dump almost clogged it but the second, well, yes the second dump that asked to come out just fifteen minutes after the first was bigger (in volume, though not in width... i did mention full disclosure... not every detail is measured even by eye though, so i suppose we can consider ourselves lucky, aye?) than the first... phew and all that... we might say that at least in the case of my bathroom tonight, unlike the game, there was no defense to stop this offense...

yeah, superbowls, what did you expect? :)
