Lights Out, Game On!

“Boy, that first half of the Super Bowl was fun and entertaining!” said no one ever. God, even the commercials were abysmal. A couple gems scattered in, but for the most part, awful and unfunny. I’m just glad to see the guy who used to write the jokes for America’s Funniest Home Videos found work writing every commercial for every company yesterday…

But, back to the game. Here I am (with the rest of America) ready to pound beers and eat myself into a food coma a few minutes into the 3^rd quarter, when all of a sudden, a miracle happened. A stadium of darkness! A game of boredom! A Twitter of overload!  It was the perfect storm… Who would have guessed that turning out the lights would have woken that San Francisco offense up? 

Thank God it did though. What an incredible second half of football! I really thought the Niners were gonna pull it out too. Not that I have a serious attachment to either team, but you had to be rooting for them at the end, right? Damn that was frustrating, but let’s give credit when credit is due. Hats off to the John Harbaugh and the rest of Baltimore for hanging on. I’ll even bite my tongue and congratulate Ray Lewis. Gotta give it to my buddy, @StoolPizzaBoy for the tweet of the night though: 

A Cinderella story for Ray Lewis. Btw, Cinderella killed people and took steroids
