Super Bowl Cometh

Well, we are headed into Super Bowl weekend. You know, the one where the diehard fans tune in to see who has the best commercials.

That's right, the history of the Super Bowl teaches us that the best part of the game is the commercials because the games are normally ho hum.

Oh, but the hype this year is the best quarterback ever against the worst quarterback ever.

The pre-game and half-time entertainment are not entertaining either.

The announcers switch sides anytime one team gets a little momentum explaining what they got going now and what they did during the season.

The announcers are furnished a lot of useless facts they like to tell you, which basically means they overtalk.

Then after each play they explain it to you as if you didn't see what you just saw!!

In addition to the commercials, the other thing that is great about the Super Bowl is you get to do nothing all day in preparation for the big game.

Then when the game begins it is time to start eating all the good snacks you can get your hands on.

Of course we all have to watch the game so we can stand around the water cooler at work and talk about all the exciting plays.

"Man did you see that coin flip?" "It spun end over end 12 times and did you see that landing?" "It landed at an angle and two blades of grass were on top of it."

"Wow also did you see after they won, the way the players picked up the water cooler and dumped the liquid over the coach"

What a game!!!!!!!!!!!!



And with that I give you this:

A first-grade teacher explains to her class that she is an Indianapolis Colts fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they are Colts fans too.

Not really knowing what a Colts fan was, but wanting to be liked by their teacher, their hands fly into the air.

There is, however one exception, Kelly has not gone along with the crowd.

The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I'm not a Colts fan" she reports.

"Then," asks the teacher," What are you?"

"I'm a Chicago Bears fan," boasts the little girl.

The teacher asks Susie why she is a Bears fan.

"Well, my Dad and Mom are Bears fans, so I'm a Bears fan too," she responds.

"That's no reason," the teacher says. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was an idiot. What would you be then?"

Kelly smiles and says, "Then I'd be a Colts fan."


And one more for you:

Peyton Manning, after living a full life, died.

When he got to heaven, God was showing him around.

They came to a modest little house with a faded Colts flag in the window.

"This house is yours for eternity, Peyton," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here."

Peyton felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house. On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner.

It was a 3-story mansion with a blue and orange sidewalk, a 50-foot tall flagpole with an enormous Bears logo flag, and in every window, a Chicago Bears towel.

Peyton looked at God and said, "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question.

I was an all-pro QB, I hold many NFL records, and I even went to the Hall of Fame."

God said, "So what's your point, Peyton?"

"Well, why does Rex Grossman get a better house than me?"

God chuckled, and said: "Peyton, that's not Rex's house, it's mine."

GO BEARS!!!
