What about the universe that watches but at no other time in the year pays any attention to football? Told you it was sacrilege. They give a passing glance to the game but are there for the other integral parts of a Super Bowl matchup:

• the who’s who of big name celebrities
• the back stories like did you know his brother…
• the food–any self respecting Super Bowl football watcher has plenty of the good stuff–the wings, the guac, the dips, and the desserts–parteee
• the half-time show–especially this year, with 12 minutes of  Bruce
• and, of course, the commercials

How can you even think of going to the office tomorrow or even talking to anyone tomorrow without some idea of the best commercials? What about the terrible ones? Can you believe they hired an agency to do that?

Super Bowl numbers are always impressive. The number of people who attend the game, throw a party, or just hole up and watch it. I personally think we should count the number of people who love the Super Bowl so they can have an evening of appetizers without anyone telling them they need to eat healthier.

Told you, sacrilege, but I did get to see the 100-yard interception return, which no matter which team wins,  was quite an impressive display of footwork.

All in all, it was a good game. The food was great, the commercials were pretty good considering everyone was in a stew about how could companies spend money on something so frivolous during these hard economic times. Me, my favorite, the 7-layer dip, even though there are lots of variations, the concept’s a winner. You can’t go wrong, get creative, but make 7 layers!

Who knew!
