Super Bowl Sundae

One of my co-workers invited me to a party last week; the email he sent around was an invite for today to a Super Bowel Party(Typos are funny!). I didn't know what that was so I decided to stay on Henry St. to watch it.

So far so good; There is something very cool about the game being played in the rain. Even Billy Joel version of the anthem was somehow more real with raindrops on the ivory. The opening kickoff went for a TD and that's a pretty good indicator of things to come. 6 turnovers in the first half and a 16-14 lead for the Colts. This is Peyton Manning's game and he has performed as expected. If he wins this game I may consider stopping calling him Fetus-Face Manning - tough call though, that's pretty funny.

Update - The second half continued the way the first half ended; with the Colts moving the ball and the Bears looking anemic. You just knew that Sex Cannon Rex was going to mess it up. He's clearly had a busy week. The Colts didn't really even need that big a game out of Peyton. Their o-line and defense won them this game. Truth be told I'm happy that Peyton won; not for him but for Danny boy. Now that Peyton's won a Super Bowl ring Marino retains his title as the Best QB never to win a Super Bowl. That title is his Super Bowl.
Performance of the night - clearly goes to Prince for his halftime show. He actually just came out and played...very well. Him playing Purple Rain on a purple lit stage in the rain seemed almost staged.
Great song though; one of the underated soul performances of the 80's. Best halftime show in memory...although the only one I remember rating above shitty was the Stones performance last year. Still.

SuperBowl Sundae = Vitamin S

I wonder who won at the Super Bowel party?
