Superbowl Sunday

After CG.Drama, I went over to Sara's for a rib party. I watched the game, had some beer, and filled my stomach full of BBQ ribs and baked beans.

When most people sit and watch football, I imagine that they discuss the advantages a particular team has over another. Why a certain player will be key or why a particular player "sucks ass". But when you have geeks watching the biggest football event of the year, you end up talking about the line. Yes, the line that indicates where the first down is. We go beyond talking about how it's kewl, but in to the specifics of how it works, the sort of resolution it must be displayed at, etc etc.

During the game, we commented how the Eagles would have benefitted if Superman was on their team. He could do such craziness as throw the ball and cherry pick it himself. He could even just run it in to the end zone. Even after the game was over, he could still help by spinning the earth backwards and going back in time. The silliness was stopped by Jimmy saying, "You morons!"

Ah, good times.
