1) I walk into dispatch. There are drivers and my salesman standing around talking about winning and losing money and so on.
R: Was there a football game this weekend?
Crowd: (general hissing and booing) Just the Superbowl (spoken with condescension).
R: That's cool. Who won?
Crowd: (general hissing and booing)
Salesman: The Chicago Bears
R: I always liked the Bears
Crowd: (general hissing and booing)
I leave the room in turmoil, but I am strangely satisfied.
These fine graphs offer some stats on football injuries for them as that might be interested in that sort of thing.
2) At the water dispenser I overhear several people talking about the Superbowl. Everyone has their say and there is a long pause.
R: I decided to watch a Superbowl once, but when I turned on the TV it turned out to just be a football game.
Crowd: (general hissing and booing)
I go back to my desk and get back to work.

Don't worry, E, didn't get the pie graphs either. Didn't the Colts win anyway? I actually enjoyed the bits & pieces in between cooking. Dustan has decided he is a football fan...I think he just doesn't like not knowing what happened when he goes to work...LOL. I still have to have someone watch with me, cuz on my own I only get the touchdowns! Love, little B
I think not knowing what happened in a football game is a good thing.
I concur.

I like all the cool comercials, and all the food to eat at the superbowl get togethers. That's why I love superbowl Sundays with family.
I'd eat the food. And if the Bronco's were playing I might even watch the game. Did you know that Superbowl Sunday overloads sewer treatment plants and they have to have reserve tanks to meet the volume? I think that stinks.
