ALL THE WAY WITH GREEN BAY!
Here’s the Crier’s quarter-by-quarter thought process of Super Bowl XLV (45 for the Roman-numeral challenged), the finale of a Green Bay NFL post-season sweep and the fourth straight Super Bowl win for the Crier’s community:
PRE-GAME
Well, Mr. Mouthpiece who appeared on one of the local stations eleven days ago. What happened to your public notice of ‘all indications are that a ton of Pittsburgh money will be coming in so anyone who likes Pittsburgh should step up and bet early?’ Hmmm? Why is the line still the first-day line from two weeks ago: Green Bay –2.5, or –3 in some places? Were you just full of it, as you and your kind always have been and always will be, now and forever?
1st QUARTER
The Packers are leading 14-0! Is anyone surprised? Why is anyone surprised? The Packers led Philly, 14-0, early, led Atlanta, 21-7, early, and led Chicago, 14-0, early. Now, they’re leading Pittsburgh, 14-0, early. This is what was supposed to happen! This is not a surprise. We’ve all seen this before, multiple times. So, go ahead Pittsburgh - run the ball with Mendenhall all you want to now! Ha-ha!
2nd QUARTER
Uh, oh. Someone thinks that the nation needs a competitive game, despite the contrary truth that millions of people nationwide will be extremely overjoyed if Green Bay wins 38-3, enjoying every step along the way. I never understood the “I just want to see a good, close game,” mindset. If you take a side, you want to see that side win, 56-0, and you will enjoy every mounting score as the game just gets better and better! Screw anyone who likes the other side, or has a bet on the other side. Unfortunately, Pittsburgh is moving the ball and scoring some points. Nobody said it was going to be easy. It never is. But hey, it’s better to be leading by two scores at halftime and getting the ball to start the second half, than it would have been to be trailing by two scores at halftime, then kicking off to start the second half!
HALFTIME
Who are these so-called entertainers on the football field? Do people actually pay to see them and spend money for their recordings? Who would do that? American contemporary music must really stink if this is the best they can do. A bunch of nuts in funny-looking costumes singing lousy songs and dancing around like fools. They don’t appear to have much talent. Why are they up there, going “Blah-blah-blah! Blah-blah-blah! Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah!”? Seriously. The Grambling Marching Band and a rundown of College Basketball and NBA scores of the day would be a lot more interesting than this particular so-called halftime show.
3rd QUARTER
Why can’t Packers’ receiver Jordy Nelson be two inches taller? Doesn’t Aaron Rodgers realize he’s not two inches taller than he is? Why did the Rooney family that owns the Pittsburgh Steelers pay very key Packers players, Charles Woodson and Donald Driver, to fake being injured and out for the entire second half? This is not good.
4th QUARTER
Troy Aikman and Joe Buck sound like they are just yapping away, but we have enough people over the house that we don’t hear 90% of what they are saying, which is awesome. Seriously, I would rather listen to my friend’s wife talking about her Hobby Theater season membership during the game than I would Joe Buck’s play-by-play or Troy Aikman’s analysis. Sincere thanks for coming over, ladies! You screened me from the annoying blah-blah-blah!
Okay, the NFL is paying more money to the referees than the Rooney family is, in order to prevent Roethlisberger the lowlife misogynistic creepo from being the Super Bowl MVP. The NFL managed to bury Brett Favre’s weirdness, got Michael Vick out of the post-season early, and they don’t want this Roethlisberger dude’s weirdness winning the Big Game, not this season anyway. Women are the NFL’s fastest-growing demographic segment. (And women’s college basketball stinks and should be banned.)
Where was the personal foul penalty against Pittsburgh on the kickoff return preceding their final, empty possession? Has anyone seen it yet? Not that we’re complaining. The Pittsburgh franchise has certainly had enough phantom calls go their way in these post-season games…Packers win! Brett Favre, Human Anchor! So heavy an anchor that it took the Packers three years to get from the Championship Game of 2007 in Favre’s last game, to the Super Bowl of 2010!
Did Aaron Rodgers throw any interceptions in the Super Bowl? No! How about that, Favre? No interceptions! What’s that feel like? You wouldn’t know! Favre, why didn’t you invite the media to your home to watch the game with you, so you could get your face on TV during the Super Bowl and comment on how much better Aaron Rodgers is than you are, Favre, you perverse little self-centered attention-hog?
DON’T GO ANYWHERE!
Again, for those handful of followers, thanks for being with the Crier this football season. We hope you enjoyed it. College Basketball and NBA coverage continues in weekly newsletters with daily updates via e-mail. March Madness and the Conference Tournament and NCAA Tournament issues will be here before you know it. Also, as noted before, we’re going year-round now: MLB (Baseball for the acronym-challenged) 2011 begins on March 31. Now, year-round action with upcoming coverage of a six-month sport that we didn’t have previously. And it’s all free to you brave souls that believe in the Crier. As Mel Allen would say, "How about that?"
