A philosophy of football

[jhetley]

So New England is playing Philadelphia in the Super Bowl. In Florida.

I'm sorry, but I'm old enough to think that football should be played in Weather. Mud and cold and such are factors in the game. My football uniforms had permanent red stains from Georgia mud. Dome stadiums and artificial turf are abominations before the Lord.

And I'd bet serious money that if last year's Super Bowl had been played in Green Bay or Buffalo, we wouldn't have had that farce over "wardrobe malfunctions." Too many layers before any bare skin got exposed to the windchill....

I'm thinking that this afternoon may be ski-worthy.

Wardrobe malfunctions

I had that exact thought a long time ago -- if the Superbowl was being played in the kind of weather that football is supposed to be played in, NOBODY would be pulling off a shirt and accidentally(?) exposing more than intended, because the shirt would be underneath a warm jacket. :-)
