Okay.  I admit it.  When push came to shove, I really didn’t care who won Super Bowl XLVII today which is unusual for The Red Man who typically has a favorite team   I pulled halfheartedly for Baltimore because of the Chris Culliver episode on Media Day earlier this week, but I won’t go into that again tonight.  Of course the old woman Slow would NEVER miss the Super Bowl, and I confess  I was hooked right along with her from the pre-game ceremonies to the presentation of the Vince Lombardi Trophy afterwards.  Here’s why…

Jennifer Hudson singing America the Beautiful

Football Game

After a weird 34-minute delay in the second half,

the 49ers decided to play football.  Game on.

Dad and Mom Harbaugh happy their son Coach John  won

Uh, oh.  Their son Coach Jim lost

Slow talked about a couple of other Joes that were MVPs in the thrilling days of yesteryear…

like Namath and Montana

079

Baltimore wins and takes Lombardi Trophy home

If you win it, then they’re gonna put a ring on it
