Now, before I get any hate mail for this, I just want to say I have nothing against sports.
But I'm not so fond of watching a little entertainment with my commercials.
Seriously people. They don't even interrupt the Rose Parade with commercials, if they can avoid it, but the Super Bowl is so packed with advertisements you'll spend more time fast-forwarding your Ti-Vo than you will watching the game.
And now, as Bill notes, we have the commercialism taken to a whole new level. Whether that level is high or low--well--I'll leave that alone.
Tailgating is a no-no this year. So is showing the game without paying for the privilege. Churches, that means you, especially. Why this latter rule? Folks, it's all about ratings.
