For me, watching Super Bowl IVMMCLVCMXXX, was like watching Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh mudwrestling. There's nobody to cheer for. You end up sitting there and hoping they both choke to death on slop.The teams and their stars both stink.
Team: Indiannapolis Colts
The Indiannapolis Colts snuck out of Baltimore in the middle of the night and then kept their name and their right to conjur up the image of Johnny U. All their faithful fans back in Baltimore could go to hell.
Star: Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning is a douche bag. Could the guy say no to one frickin' sponsor? Can he say, "I'd like to endorse your hemroid suppositories but why not ask Joseph Addai?"
And watching Brother Eli celebrate after every touchdown is sickening. How come we didn't get to watch Eli and the hot blonde crying after the game? My friend SleehRat calls them Goober and Gomer and I wish I had thunk it.
Team: New Orleans Saints
The Saints may be worse. The owner Tom Benson hates New Orleans. He tried to use the horror of Hurricane Katrina as an excuse to move the Saints to his hometown of San Antonio. The NFL had to use bribes and threats to get him to go back to New Orleans.
Star: Drew Brees
Drew Brees is a selfish, Scrooge-like prick. He sees no reason for current players to assist in setting up a system to help out former players. Former players that helped create the incredibly successful league that they all cash in on now. Former players that are now suffering from bad knees, bad health and brain injuries.
Drew Brees should suffer a career ending blow to his head, loose his (hopefully) un-guaranteed millions in salary and endorsements, get turned down by the disability board, have his model/wife leave him for greener pastures and then bad-mouth disabled, former players that had to work second jobs during careers that lasted less than 10 years.
No wonder I drank too much. Good game. though.
