Scroll down to the Fun(nies)
section for a page listing this year’s Super Bowl
commercials (which feel underwhelming) and how you can
stream it for free in 4K from a compatible streaming
device.
I’m an AFC
guy.
So when my home team isn’t in
the Super Bowl (which it has never been), I root for my
conference. The logic is that even if my team was 4-13
(which it was), at least I can say we were playing
against the best team in football.
Except
– maybe – this year…
Kansas
City.
I’ll be rooting for Kansas City until I see
a reaction shot of Taylor Swift cheering her
beau.
I had my fill of this during the regular
season when every Kansas City TV broadcast made you
think that Ms.
Swift was the only fan in the entire stadium.
So
here’s my game plan:
GO CHIEFS.
But the
nanosecond after I see Ms. Swift’s reaction shot,
then…
(CLICK)
GO
EAGLES.
It is so painful to type
those two words.
But that’s where the High
Priests of the 2025 NFL have pushed me.
For the
record: A notable exception to this rule is if the
Patriots are in the Super Bowl. Then I go to the movies
and pretend the whole thing never
happened.
🙂
To my non-US audience, I
apologize if none of this makes sense. But in the end,
I’m just hoping for a close game that scores more than
30 points.

Let’s get to the
Newsletter. I’ll see you next Sunday.
Happy Grading!
