And that there were adverts right after kick-off. I'd been used to Channel 4's fast-paced highlights show on Sunday evenings. I'm pretty sure we ran out of booze before the 4th quarter. (there were three of us)

Anyway, tonight I'm a guaranteed $275 winner for a $10 stake. A bookie was offering 55/1 odds on either team with a maximum $5 stake for new accounts so I opened one for me and the Mrs and bet on both teams.

I fancy Brady (who I, and everyone else strangely seem to not mind thee days) to engineer a win. Although, I don't really care as long as it's a good game.

This will be the first one I've watched without friends or (extended) family in as long as I can remember. I've promised myself that next year I will throw down. New TV, good food and plenty of booze. I'll take the Monday off.
I'm watching.

Can't believe how easy this is going for TB.
