Super Bowl Birthday
Feb 2nd 2009
First off…yesterday was my birthday and I am now 25 years old. I only mention this because people seemed to delight in mentioning to me that I'm a quarter of a century old. Bah! That makes it sound much older than it actually is…
Nothing really big was planned. For me these days, birthdays aren't really much of a big deal. All the good ones are in the past and there's nothing else to really look forward to. Well, aside from each passing year decreases the chance that I will ever be called up if the draft is ever reinstated. Go me!
So I did my normal Sunday routine, grocery shopping laundry…did a little programming stuff in the afternoon and relaxed a bit. Then I headed over to my parents house to watch the Super Bowl.
The game this year was fairly boring for the first 3 quarters but the 4th quarter had me on the edge of my seat (well, technically on the floor since I was playing with my parents dog). I totally thought Arizona was going to come back and win that game, but even though they didn't, it was still an exciting finish. The commercials, by and large, were very disappointing. I can't even really think of anything that stood out.
The end of the game made up for it though.
But now it's monday. Blargh.

QotD: Super Bowl 2008
Feb 3rd 2008
Are you watching the Super Bowl today? Who are you watching it with, and which team do you want to win?
I'm going over to my parents this evening to watch the game since they have an HDTV and I do not. It's also more fun to watch the game with other people.
As far as who wins, I really don't care either way. I think the patriots are probably going to win but you never know with these things. I'm going to be rooting for the scores myself. I'm in the mikeportnoy.com super bowl numbers pool, so I'm hoping that the end of quarter scores wind up being:
1st Quarter: New England 0, New York 9
2nd Quarter: New England 7, New York 8
3rd Quarter: New England 5, New York 0
Final Score: New England 1, New York 2
I don't see myself having much of a chance on the final score, but the first quarter might be promising…somehow. We'll see I guess.
