Super, thanks for asking!
Super sweet: The New England Patriots outscored the St. Louis Rams 20-17 to win Super Bowl XXXVI, quieting all the nay sayers who didn't give them a chance. For a New England sports fan like me, it's pretty sweet to finally get the W. This was the Patriots' third visit to the Super Bowl, who lost the first two to the Bears and Packers, and also endured the ignominy of being "Super Bowl Shuffled."
Super lame: As a group, this year's Super Bowl ads were hella lame. A few were reasonably funny (like the E*TRADE chimp and Bud Light's Satin Sheets and Cyrano spots), but most were just plain bad. The worst had to be those from the Office of National Drug Control Policy. I've got to wonder who the ad wizards are over at the ONDCP who think that a couple of super bowl spots are going to get junkies to kick. They couldn't think of anything better to do with a few million dollars? Even more insulting was the lame attempt to make the "war on drugs" a subset of the uber-patriotic "war on terrorism." Seems less like a real issue and more like a convenient way to continue the sad "justification" of the crazy dogmatic drug policies forged in the 80s. I can only imagine how happy it made everyone's favorite McCarthyists, John Ashcroft and Lynne Cheney.
Hey, speaking of narrow-minded zealots, have you seen PETA's sexually suggestive pro-veganism ad that Fox allegedly wouldn't run during the Super Bowl? At least the left-wing kooks have a sense of humor. They all make me nervous, though. I wish all the over-zealous groups would just lighten up and take a nap or have a snack or something.
