My plan is to not watch it. Watching sports of any kind just bores the hell out of me.

Let's see, I'm going to my son's house this morning, and we'll probably play a little wii, then maybe go bowling, and after that probably go down to Westport for a bit before we eat somewhere, then I'll drop him off and come home and do homework.

NOT MUCH, AT LEAST I WON'T HAVE TO SELL AND SERVE BEER OR PUT UP WITH ALL THOSE RANDOM BETTING GAMES THAT GO ALONG WITH WATCHING THE GAME.

We will be watching it at home while stuffing our faces with a bunch of snack foods. I'm making my pineapple/teriyaki chicken drummettes so I hope they turn out good. Oh and I found not just regular lil' smokies but cheese filled lil' smokies so my husband is gonna be one happy man. Everything is better with cheese! Hope everyone enjoys the game!

teacher, it's kinda like whizzing away $150 million on an orgy of self-congratulation for the O'dude's coronation, isn't it?

"Instead of wasting all of the money on a stupid game, they could hurt the homeless, help out the poor countries, or help the economy. What a waste of money."Ummm... I don't think you understand: the Super Bowl MAKES more money than they spend on it. It's not a "waste". It helps the economy. What's good for the economy is good for the homeless. Are you really a teacher?

Not doing traditional Super Bowl stuff this year. Sure, we will have the game on, but staying home...and I really need to grill those 1 1/2 thick T-bones that are in the fridge. That will be "Super Bowl food" this year.

Apparently, part of our plan was also to get a puppy, but I wasn't aware of that this morning.

teacher101 (Anonymous) says… "Yes, I am a teacher. This spending of money on a sporting event does not help out anyone but the greedy and rich. Millions around the world are staving and everyone just sits back in the easy chair and gets fat."I am sure s/he felt the same way about the millions wasted on President Obama's inauguration while hundreds of homeless were swept off the street by the DNC so all the celebrities wouldn't have to be inconvenienced. Besides the President himself is hosting a Superbowl party.

I usually go shopping during the Super Bowl. It's great. Plenty of parking, good service. Just gotta get home before the drunks hit the road. I rather drive around on New Year's Eve than after the Super Bowl.

Perhaps after the final whistle blows, the O'dude will bestir himself to get FEMA involved in the crisis going on in Kentucky.

Awww jonas I'm so jealous! We've been looking for a small breed puppy to bring into our family forever! My husband is a farm boy who was raised around farm mutt dogs and has told me he won't pay more then $50 for a rehoming fee. It's been so hard to find a small breed puppy with that kind of budget!
