Superbowl Thoughts

I'll admit I'm not a football fan, but Michelle was out of town, and I had the house and couch all to myself. I rounded up some snacks and watched the Superbowl.
Cool game tonight! Here's some random thoughts:
- Were people booing Muhsin Muhammad when the team captains were introduced? Please correct me if I'm wrong on that and it was like a "Bruuuuce!" thing for The Boss.
- What an exciting game! Close and lots of action.
- People seem to play football in Florida during rainfall about as well as they drive in Florida during rainfall - Badly!
- I respect the camera men all the more when they get wiped out!
- It was fun for a while to watch the Colts offense just bounce off of the Bears defensive guys. Those guys are huge! Run run run! *Bonk!* Fall down!
- How much would it suck to be Rex Grossman right now? How bad do you gotta fowl up in a Superbowl?
- Can Manning shut the hell up for once and just throw the ball? OK, I get that's like his thing but it gets a little obnoxious to watch. Although, you can't argue with success - or a trophy.
- Two African American head coaches battling it out in the Superbowl (not to mention an African American half-time show headliner). Finally. It aint over yet, though, people.
Lastly, when I hear stories of people like Tony Dungy, who has never raised his voice or sworn in front of his players (except when saying he would go on The Best Damn Sports Show Ever). I'm inspired. I think, "Gee, I should be like that guy." They say he commands respect not because he inspires fear, but because his players don't want to let him down. What a cultivator! Good work, Dungy.
