Monday Morning Quarterbacking

We aren’t what you would call football fans here at casa dlyn. We don’t hate it though and usually catch a game or two through the season. I vastly prefer baseball and Larry doesn’t care much about sports at all except for the kind where you strap a ton or so of steel about your person and drive it ’round a circle for several hours. But what kind of Americans would we be if we didn’t watch the Superbowl? Besides – there are snacks!
There were two first half highlights. One – we didn’t know there was a new Star Trek movie. This makes us very happy. We like Star Trek. startrThis longest- touchdown-run-in-Superbowl-history was very cool. That “uneccesary roughness” business later in the game? Classless, dude.92Springsteen was ok. The steak sandwiches we had at halftime were really good though.springsteenEarly in the second half, I potted these plants. 3 bargain plants from Lowes in a planter Ellyn gave me for Christmas a couple years ago – I need to garden NOW!plantPeople on our cable system who really cared a lot about the game were probably kinda pissed off – the picture for NBC stations was awful for some reason.scoreHaving no dog in the hunt, we didn’t care who won, but it was a good game. At the end we were thinking that maybe next year, we ought to watch more football.

    It was a good good game. We enjoyed it too.

    Love the plants you chose for your planter. Very complimentary colors.

    It was an okay game. The food was good. Some of the commercials were pretty good… Springsteen was the best!

  3. Mental P Mama says:

    It was a good game. Even if the Giants weren’t there. Love those plants!

  4. Ashleigh says:

    I only watched the 4th quarter. That had the best plays I think. I did catch Springsteen at half time. He was great!

  5. Deb says:

    OK, I am going to get some plants. Before I had children, I had at least 30 plants everywhere. Now, there isn’t one living growing thing in my home…except maybe that pink ring in the toilet…
    Off to Lowes now… :)

    plants look great .. and seeing JJ Abrams is involved with the new Startrek makes it even more appealing!

  7. dlyn says:

    Thanks Ellyn – I knew you would approve.

    AG – I have never been a big fan of Springsteen, but he was pretty good last night.

    Well the Giants can’t be in the SB every year MPM!

    Ashleigh – the whole game was pretty good but of course the last couple plays were really something.

    Deb – plants make my life very happy :)

    I agree Daryl – we may even go see it in ther theater instead of waiting for Netflix!

    Nice planting during the game. That made me laugh.

  9. Country Girl says:

    Your plants look beautiful. Maybe that’s what I need. If I promise not to let them die.

  10. Tara says:

    Great game, I guess! I was at a Super Bowl party and all the women wound up in the kitchen, like that’s new!

  11. Ruth Hull Chatlien says:

    The first half seemed like it was going to be a blow-out, but the fourth quarter was fantastic.

    Of course, I’m a die-hard football fan. (I can happily watch six or seven games a week.)

  12. Karen says:

    Crazy how the Super Bowl made me wonder if I don’t watch enough football. Hmmm. Plants look pretty.

  13. Lori says:

    I bought a great plant at Lowes on clearance last week, too! I am ready to garden right along with ya. Afterall, what else can we do now that football is over?

  14. Lori says:

    OK, I didn’t mean to comment 47 times! I swear blogger is out to make me look like a crazy!
