I ve heard more people this year than ever before saying they won t be watching the big game to decide the championship of the National Football League. It s so strange to hear people talking about not watching the largest sporting event of the year.
When it comes down to it, I know I will be watching. I have been a sports fan my entire life and while I understand why people have decided to not watch anymore I will have my television on and I will be eating way enough calories for everyone who lives in my neighborhood.
