Super Bowl
Were anyone’s predictions worse than mine?!
IMHO he big game was just OK. The D’s played well. The QB’s didn’t deliver. I didn’t watch the 1/2 time show because I’m not remotely interested in any of the acts.
Lady Gaga did a FANTASTIC National Anthem.
Most of the commercials fell somewhere between lame and horrible. The commercials I liked:
Doritos -Ultrasound
Heinz – Wiener Stampede
Favorite: Kevin Hart – First Date / Hyundai
