  I used to watch a lot of football. It would consume so much of my time. I’m not sure if it’s getting older, having kids, manufactured drama, folks tying their identity to something they have no control over, or the ‘kneeling’ bullshit but it was kind of eye opening when a buddy of mine called me today to ask who I was rooting for and I genuinely had no idea what he was talking about. I don’t think he believed my when I told him I didn’t know what he was talking about. I haven’t seen a single game all year and I don’t think I’ve missed anything. Happy that folks find enjoyment in it but I just don’t think it’s my bag anymore.

    I was slightly interested in getting into it. Youtube had some 15 minute sample of Sunday Ticket. So I figured I’d catch the end of the Bears game. Why not.

    13 of the 15 minutes were ads and the demo ran out. Iirc it was exorbitantly priced to continue, and you wouldn’t get everything.

  New England Hawks vs Sea Patriots.

    I am from Seattle and I didn’t even know the Seahawks made it to ‘the big game’ until literally yesterday.

    Sportsball!

  I only know because tv shows that normally air episodes on Sundays shift their schedules to earlier in the week. Also, NBA games which I actually follow are moved the day before and the ones are left start earlier in the day.

  If, for whatever reason, you are called upon to bluff your way through a conversation about the Super Bowl, you can say that you’re rooting for the Seahawks because you cannot stomach the particular flavor of Americana that the Patriots embody at this time.

    Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

      That’s the thing about Arsenal, they always try to walk it in. Put in a couple of crosses into the box from the wide area to make space for your number 9 to operate at the top of the box!

    It’s also a very valid answer to a football fan. There’s two camps, Patriots fans and literally every other fanbase going for the Seahawks.
