Okay, I want you all to sit down for this one: I will not post who wins, because I just don’t care. Even though my hometown team is playing **I am not watching the Super Bowl**. I just don’t care. Therefore, I’ll note who wins from the news highlights, but I ain’t gonna watch the freggin’ game. Tripler I’m such a Communist. . . ---

If someone does post the winner in a title, someone should do Crunchy a favor and post another thread with a title saying the other team won. (I’d do it, but I have no idea who’s playing and I expect I’ll have even less idea who won.) ---

Ron, dear, I care so much for you, that I will actually make the supreme sacrifice of not even WATCHING the game, just for you. No, no, don’t plead with me to give up my happiness for yours. I will be fine, and maybe I will get some laundry done. Scotti ---

Hey, Crunch, I could get into watching Farmer Ted and his re-sodding. My lawn could use a few tips. Probably very interesting. > [@](#): > > How do you know you weren’t #1? 😉 Is that for real? I might actually be #1? I’ve never been #1 before. I think you’re kidding me. Still trying for #3 Jim ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by iampunha \* > \*\*And CF, I hate you too:) \*\* Nope, you’re not the guy. Sorry to disappoint you. **Scotticher** thank you for that amazing sacrifice. You are a saint. **Nacho4Sara** - I don’t want to pick which team I’m rooting for since every playoff game this year the team I rooted for lost. (Except the Viking-Giants game, I didn’t give a shit about who won, since I don’t like either of those teams) 😉 ---

Actually, all we normally watch is CNN too… but the weekend manager is a football geek, so he’s pulling some strings and getting this done. If the site manager found out, we’d all be in trouble… except the weekend guy, 'cause he’s been here to long and has too much pull. _sigh_ ---

Last one I watched, Staubach was playing in, so I don’t really remember much about it. I hear he isn’t playing in this one, though. ---

Crunchy, I feel for you. The only reason we are going to be able to see the game tomorrow night is because of a very kind co-worker. We have DirecTV here, but someone in our extremely inefficient accounting dept. didn’t renew the annual contract. So one of our day-shift buddies brought his satellite box thingy in so that we can watch the game. What a sweet thing to do! ---

And all the commercials… don’t forget the commercials! My company (the corporate drones that I work for!) will be airing a new commercial… from the people that brought you the lame ass Cat herding commercial, keep an eye out for something to do with squirrels… It should be a blast… _yawn_ ---

Imagine - 25 threads of different winners, different scores…then the Mods will just delete **all** of them, which will serve the same purpose…hmmm…works pretty well both ways. I like your style! ---
