Sports competitions have consequences that break hearts; politics have consequences that ruin lives.
On some days, I prefer the momentously serious to the amusingly meaningless, but today's a day off.

Today, I'm proud to say I'm a liberal and I'm watching the Super Bowl.

2. I love sports, but don't bet on it or take it seriously.
And there is way too much needless money in it but I still enjoy the games. I have never been to a football game though. My husband went to Foxboro to see the Patriots and told me never to do it, it was FREEZING!!!

3. The multi- national corporations thank you...
for continuing to support them by tuning in
to the networks they own and use to further their agenda.
Carry on.

5. You're right. Because multi-national corporations have NO place in politics.
Wait a minute...

7. I enjoy watching football, but I've boycotted the Super Bowl for years. It's just a game.
That's all, a game.
