And the Patriots played an AMAZING game, and should be proud.

That was one crazy awesome game!
I love it when a game keeps the audience on it's toes.
And I ain't cryin' that the Eagles won.

The game kept me on the edge of my seat right until the last second. What a contest! Two great quarterbacks with teams to match. What more could you ask for?
On the other hand, the commercials were, for the vast majority, real losers. The only ones that even made me smile were the Tide commercials and the Crocodile Dundee parody for Australian tourism. Too many touchy-feely ones that were either stupid or schmaltzy. No Budweiser Clydesdales, either! That was a letdown.

The first thing Rick said to me this morning was "The Eagles won the Super Bowl". And when he got to work this morning, he didn't text me to say, "I'm at work". No, no, it was "The Eagles won the Super Bowl".
He wants a hat, a tee-shirt and a sweat shirt. He's taking off work on Wednesday to watch the parade. And if the weather was to be OK, we'd probably go to Philadelphia instead of watching it on TV (but alas, freezing rain is forecast). This man has been a die-hard Eagles fan his entire life. I think there are a lot of people like Dear Richard, who have been waiting a long time for this one.
There was a bit of muttering last night, a few
words throughout. During the last couple of minutes, he came back to the bedroom and told me that he couldn't watch, he couldn't watch, he couldn't watch. "Please don't let Brady have the ball!" Lots of praying going on. And then finally, "YES! OH YES, BABY! YES!" And I knew.

As well he should! He should enjoy every minute of it.

I thought it was an excellent game! Great interceptions and long throws! I am happy for the Eagles= I like seeing new teams win the super bowl for a chance. The Pat's defense SUCKED honestly they were wide open in so many plays=but alas it was a good game. I like the hop jump to catch the ball when the guy jumped over this other guy in the 1st quarter. I fell asleep 5 min to go in 3rd quarter. There was some muttering swear words here too. LOL. For both sides.
Congratulations to the Eagles,, and their fans!!
I knew, after the first 5 minutes that this would be an upset.. just knew it.. not a football fan.. but I could tell..
Anyway.. Rick deserves to get all the 'stuff'' he wants.. this is great for him...and for all the others..

Pam, the parade is this Thursday, not Wednesday. Here's the scoop:The first thing Rick said to me this morning was "The Eagles won the Super Bowl". And when he got to work this morning, he didn't text me to say, "I'm at work". No, no, it was "The Eagles won the Super Bowl".

I know, I was so disappointed.
DH and I love the Budweiser Clydesdales horse commercials every year.

Yes, I think it was changed due to the weather today. He's now taking off work tomorrow!

A beautiful moment (unless you're a Patriots fan!): the Philly Special play. Doesn't come with a cheesesteak, though:
Watch: Nick Foles called the fourth-and-goal play
Watch: Nick Foles called the fourth-and-goal play
So, we're both off work today and getting ready to settle down on the couch with football-shaped sugar cookies 
to enjoy the afternoon. I swear my husband is still excited. Rick saw the Philly Special. (I wasn't going to take the day off, but then Rick said vacation days are for good things and to just stay home.)
He was watching a program last night where they put mics on some of the players, the refs, etc. When that particular play was done, even a Patriot player said it was well-called, and well-done. Kudos!
