Super Bowl XLIII

Football fan? Me 2. Need proof? Here's an excerpt from my convo with my roommate just minutes ago...

Me: I wish we could watch the Super Bowl instead of studying all night. 

MA: Me too. 

Me: It's not like I'm a fan of either team, but anything is better than this. I think I'll root for the Cardinals.

MA: Perfect. Then I'll root for the Stealers. My mom is rooting for the Stealers, and we have family friends who are huge fans.

Me: I really have no reason to root for the Cardinals. It just sounded good. And, I have friends who live in St. Louis, and they are Cardinals fans.

MA: (with a look of shock and disgust on her face) What?!?! Pleeease tell me you're joking! You know they are from Arizona, right? Please tell me you know this! 

Me: Um, yah. Of course I knew that. Obviously. (foot in mouth, trying to take it back. Not successful. Damage is done.)

MA: (nothing's said, face tells all..."haha! I'm never going to let you live this down.")

So, for my fellow sports fans, a little piece of information for you....
St. Louis Cardinals =baseball team. Arizona Cardinals=football team.

Happy Super Bowling to you. Go Cardinals. Or Steelers. Or whoever, what do I know? 
After all, it's all about the commercials anyways, right?
