The compelling story lines of Ray Lewis' dream run and swan song, the Harbaugh family success, the Colin Kapernick/pistol/zone-read evolution of the game were exhausting! And I was lucky enough to be out of the country and completely disconnected for most of the 2 week runup to the big game. The game is an absolute zoo with too little substance and too much marketing. Ad agencies, PR firms, marketing companies go crazy over media day, go nuts over commercials, the halftime show pomp & circumstance. Ugh!
You know what the Superbowl was like for me? During the first half I watched about 4 plays as I enjoyed 10-ish kids under the age of 5 running around together at a neighbors house. Sheila and I put the girls to bed and settled in to watch the 2nd half. I fell asleep about 5 minutes in and woke up when the referees were blowing one of many calls by not calling holding 11 times during the punt/safety by the Ravens. Wow, what a game! Good night, I'm not going to Disneyland. #whocares
