GIANTS WIN...New York erupts!



I'm not even sure where to begin when talking about the Super Bowl...is it with the new love of my life (no not football, but Eli Manning...without his sweaty teen stache), the hilarious advertisements or the rockin' Tom Petty and his weave. Ahhh Super Bowl an event which i have always enjoyed, but now i can say that i actually understand and thoroughly enjoyed it! A tradition we Child Lifers will continue. Since no one wants to hear about the play by plays...because really i've already forgotten most of the technical stuff...i've compiled a list of my favorites things about yesterdays game


10) Even before the game started people were yelling and honking and my grocery store was sold out of all the Bud beers...wait is that a regular new york day though?

9) The red carpet...So my friend Kegan laughed at me when i asked about a red carpet for a major event such as this, he scoffed "it's football". Then when i arrived at the party he said, so did you see Ryan Seacrest's red carpet....WHAAAATT...yeah well i guess John Travolta and a few others walked the carpet before taking their seats at the game, and i missed it!

8)I'm not poking fun at Bill Belichick because he's the coach for the rival team, but i have a few questions regarding his sports wear. This being the cut off sweatshirt. My friend Erin had a lot of issues because of all people who could wear anything, he chooses the cut off sweat shirt and not a nice vest with a monogrammed Pat's logo...hehe, yeah right

7) Paula Abdul and the entertainment- So Paula did a rather "interesting" performance...a flashback to her opposites attract era, but she is now 20 years older, but paula still has an amazing body and she really does try work that stage. BUT Alicia Keys, ahhmazing...ah i can't wait for when she does a half time show! Oh and Tom Petty warmed my heart. I love to see he and the heart breakers still getting their groove on...but his weave was a little bit bizarre who told him it was okay to wear his hair like that.

6)HD football watching...It's like being at Imax. The colours are so vibrant, it moves so fast, it's like being at the game...it's the ONLY way to watch sports i've decided.

5) food...ahhh food-Super Bowl=lots of food and boy can a bunch of girls bring it. polenta chili, choco filed pretzels, real onion dip, mini pizza's, ginger bread...and beer ahhh beer.

4) Advertisements- my theory was due to the writers strike the ads would be amazing...not amazing, but still here are some of my favs...Doritos and the catching of the rat, the talking etrade baby...the Sobe thriller lizards...and the 2 Jackie Moon (will ferrell) budlight ads (ps: budlight, go suck one, hehe)...well you check them out and decide...sooo many that i was laughing over

ps: for those who know me, the Fedex carrier pigeon commercial haunted my dreams last night, chills...what sick ad exec. okay'd that ad?!

3) How the MVP gets a car...WHAT...isn't there no I in team? ps: isn't a Caddy Escalade gone hybrid a bit backwards...does that not equal a regular cars gas consumption? just checkin'

2) The NY Giants won...of course it makes the list of favorite things about the game

1) "House" after the game- let's be realistic here "House" is always number one for me even if the Giants did win
