The big game

Well today is the day that football fans have been waiting for. To be totally honest....I'm not even sure who the teams are. I watch it for the half time show and the commercials.

Every year they seem to hype up the commercials. The TV talks about how many millions of dollars are spent on the ad space. Every year I watch the commercials and hope I won't be disappointed. Most times the commercials are ones that are already airing. I guess I would expect advertisers to make new ones given the fact they spend so much on them. Maybe this year will be different.

I also watch for the half time show. In past years there have been a few good ones, ZZ Top was my favorite so far. There have also been a few duds. I'm hoping this year they don't try to squeeze to much into a little bit of time. I would rather hear the whole song, even if It's one I don't like, then to hear bits and pieces of several songs. It's almost like the half time show tries too hard to please every one by doing snippets of all genres....just pick one and stick to it!

The Super Bowl is the perfect show in our house. It's also the only time the TV stays on the same channel for any great length of time. Usually hubby is flipping thru the channels when the commercials come on when he is watching TV. Today that is not allowed.

He gets to watch the game uninterrupted. I will get up and get the pop, chips, let the dogs out....while the game is on. He will do it during the commercials!

Next weekend is my "super bowl" The Westminster Kennel Club has their dog show! I'm rooting for the St Bernard!
