Hmmm. I'm not a "real" football fan even though for business purposes I have season tickets for both the Cowboys and Chiefs. I do not care if a bowl game was played in the nude, in a hurricane or by mistake. I do not care if whoever played won, lost or dropped dead. That I will have to hear about this all day from associates who will be hungover, gloating, not gloating or as dis-interested as am I is also beyond the pale. Apart from what Americans have been gulled into believing, the NFL has nothing to do with governmental policy and this super bowl business is just that, a business not a city, county, state or Federal holiday as many seem to believe. I hope those of you to whom this was of surpassing importance enjoyed it and, since you've seen fit to share your enthusiasm here, I feel equally free to share my complete and utter lack of interest. Gentlemen, I'll see you in front of the mirror where I'm trying to learn how to trim a 'stache with the scissors from a Swiss Army Knife. Now that's important.
Why sully this thread with drivel like this? Let those that enjoy the game comment on it. You can always start your own thread speaking to why you do not like football or the game.

I was not real impressed with the half time show.
Thank You, Gentlemen for your cursory reminder that this is finally the land of the lack of freedom of speech. Unless I mis-read, this was a thread about the recently played super bowl and football. Ever hear of trash talk? I responded within the spirit and parameters of the thread. As I repsonded privately to "Schro" since I wrote that I've had to cancel two conference calls due to shouting and yelling about the "game", one person called in reporting they had alcohol poisoning and another who "hung together" to use American Idiomatic speech haven't appreared at all. I want those who have an interest to enjoy it, do whatever they want in celebration but, gentlemen, I also want you to understand not every opinion is universal. If you do not want an answer such as mine then indicate that only positive, inane posts will be accepted. Go out and support your teams, I certainly do mine (Go Trojans, Fight On) but to cloture me with petty comments because you feel I've "sullied" your football and by inference your site is beneath consideration. P. S. As to wagering on any team sports, I wouldn't pay a dime to see an ant eat a bale of hay. PJ
