The Stupid Superbowl Poem by Mary Nagy

The Stupid Superbowl



Today they eat the nachos
they sit and ''shoot the bull''.
There never is a shortage
of a spare finger to pull!

They seem to just go crazy
like they are not all there!
They just don't seem to realize
I REALLY DO NOT CARE!

Maybe it's un-American
to not enjoy the game
but I'm just not impressed at all
by all this football fame!

They sit and count the money
they're surely going to win
but, their team needs a touchdown...
Oh, here we go again!

When I ask him ''who is playing? ''
He says I have no soul!
Is it my fault I don't go nuts
for the stupid SUPERBOWL! ? !

I will apologize in advance if this offends any football fans. I don't really HATE it, I just have no interest. (Same thing huh?) Sincerely, Mary

Mary, if you didn't watch the Superbowl, you missed Mick Jagger dancing around and singing Satisfaction at half-time. I must say there's something a little creepy about a 60-year old singing an adolescent anthem, especially as if he means it.

No need to apologize Mary. Not all of us have the urge to pick a day to act like idiots over a pigskin fight. Rusty

I have no use for football, but I dug seeing the Stones at half-time.
