This is why they play the games

I'll admit I'm a little nervous about Sunday's Super Bowl. I'm pulling for the heavy favorite. It will be a crushing disappointment if it doesn't work out. Much will be lost.

I am of course talking about my Super Bowl Squares game, where I drew double zero and 3-7. Mrs. N-B got 6-7 and 7-7. In the words of my Squares MC Bean Stringfellow, "I cannot envision a scenario in which [they] don't win."

Of course I'm also rooting for the Patriots. In a blatant attempt to appease the gods of karma, I will now post a flattering picture of Eli Manning, with whom I have no beef.
