Super Bowl XLV

Well, it's official.  Congratulations to the Green Bay Packers.  The Pittsburgh Steelers did manage to make a game of it, but in the end, they shot themselves in the foot (or feet!)

Usually one of my favorite parts of the Superbowl is the commercials.  This year, there is only 2 that stood out in my mind.  The Coke commercial with the dragons and the bud commercial with the sword fighting.  (What can I say-- I'm a sucker for fantasy.)  Overall, I was rather disappointed with the commercials that we saw.  Many of them had me scratching my head as to what they were actually trying to advertise!

How about you?  Did you have a favorite commercial?  Did the game go the way you wanted?  Share below, and have a great Monday!

Super Bowl XLV

Well, it's official- the Green Bay Packers will be playing the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Superbowl in two weeks.  (I attribute it to my wearing the black and gold of the Pittsburgh Penguins last weekend and of the Pittsburgh Pirates this weekend to support my husbands team.  I'm sure he would have worn a combination of blue and white to support my Colts had they made it this far, and his team hadn't!)

After watching the playoff games where the scores were either very close, or very far apart, I am hoping for a good, close game.  I want to see good effort from the players and good officiating.

We'll be watching at home with friends, rooting for Pittsburgh (go AFC!) .  How about you?

50/50 in week 13

After flipping between two blow out games (Redskins vs Giants, Bills vs Vikings) it was great to watch the Colts score 21 points in the 4th quarter to tie with Dallas (they should've gone for 2!!)

After swapping possession in overtime though, Dallas managed to pull it out with an field goal.  Even though my team lost, it was a great game to watch.  Playoffs are looking slim this year, though.

How's your team doing?  Are they a division leader, a wild card, in the hunt, or looking to next year?

In other news, tomorrow, December 7th, Christian Kane's CD House Rules comes out.  Many of you might know him as Lindsey (the lawyer in Angel) or Eliot (the Hitter in Leverage- which returns on Sunday!).  He is also a talented country singer.  You can check him out at www.christiankane.com

Football Season

Well, football season is finally here again.  Sundays pigging out on cheese and cracker trays, bowls of chili, homemade pizza's, and company of family and friends.

With the three of us liking different teams (and the neighbor we usually watch with liking even a different one still) we do a lot of channel flipping while the games are on.  This week wasn't so bad, hubby's team (the Steelers) and my team (the Colts) were on at the same time--but, my Colts weren't looking so good, so we watched the Steelers.  My sons team (the Eagles) was the 4 o'clock game (and oddly he didn't watch hardly any of it!).  Then there was the night game where our neighbor's team (the Cowboys) played.

When my husband and I were talking about the scores this evening, I realized his was the only team out of all of ours that won yesterday.  Hmmm.  We'll have to see how the season goes.

How did your team(s) do?  Share in the comments.
