Gridiron Gathering

I once referred to the Super Bowl as "the world's biggest display of homo-erotic macho bullshit." That was three years ago, and though I still don't place a lot of emphasis on professional sports, I can't deny the fun to be had a good Super Bowl party. Case in point: yesterday, Drew and Becky had a great party at their place. The big game was pretty exciting, and was book-ended by equally exciting games of Settlers. Just for the historical value, a little part of me wanted the Patriots to win; but the bigger part of me was rooting for the underdogs, so I was glad to see Eli and the Giants pull off one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history. Plus, what better excuse is there to drink beer and eat junk food all day?
