Historic Game

So by now if you have not noticed Im very fond of football. Im actually cringing as I write this because there will be no football until August which saddens me deeply. Last night's game will go down in history as one of the better super bowls whether you look at James Harrison's one hundred yard interception return, Larry Fitzgerald's amazing fourth quarter, or Big Ben connecting with Santonio Holmes for the game winning touch down. This game had all the drama, glitz, and glamour that make the super bowl the spectacle of the year. Though some of the commercials were questionable (see Macgyver spoof probably on youtube) there were definitely some laughs in between the drama. One that comes to mind is definitely the etrade commercials with the talking baby who called someone a shankapotamus. If you turned the game off after its conclusion then you more than likely missed it. There were also previews for yet another Fast and Furious movie and perhaps the more highly anticipated sequal to Transformers due out this summer. As a watched the drama unfold I sat and thought to myself about what it is that the Superbowl represents to me. These days I have jopined the copuntless fans who watch the event every year no matter if their team made it or not just because of the drama. I thought about the ads that are ran and the two million dollars spent to get a commercial slot during the game. I came to one conclusion sometime in my life I must somehow get involved with the Superbowl, whether I one day make it as an analyst on sportscenter or if I work for one of those companies that shells out the money to have their commercial ran. My long time dream is to be a sports writer and work my way to ESPN somehow but to be involved with the Superbowl would be a dream. Lastly I have to touch on what we witnessed last night and that was a team from Arizona that no one picked to do anything hold their own against a "scary" defense. The cards continued to fight and move the ball against what was labeled the best defense in the conference and even after the final touchdown they were moving the ball. Whose to say if Warner and Big Red did not have another minute or so the outcome could have been different. Now we have to wait a year to see what unfolds and if it is not apparent getting to the Superbowl is not easy. It will be easy to see how things unfold next year for the Cardinals will they bounce back and be just as good if not better or was this just a fluke season. I know one thing all eyes will be on Big Red and the rest of the nfl next year.
