defective yeti is pleased to annnounce that today marks thirty-two straight years of Not Giving A Rat-Ass About The Superbowl. A big "thank you" to everyone who took the time to send cards and congratulatory emails -- I couldn't have done it without you! *
* Lie.
Posted on January 23, 2003 to dyI'm right there with you. I don't even own a tv, let alone follow professional sports. What a waste of time, energy & money.

Posted by: Stacey on January 24, 2003 1:19 PMI swear, Matthew Baldwin, sometimes I wonder if you really are heterosexual. The only reason I became gay was so that I would never, ever have to sit through a football game again. And I haven't. Now you tell me you can dislike football and be straight, too? I'll need more data.
Posted by: Bill on January 24, 2003 2:09 PMI thought the Superbowl was this Sunday. Or maybe it was last Sunday?

Posted by: Katie on January 24, 2003 2:24 PMYou know, I used to think all the sports fanatics were just meat-headed idiots. Now I realize the amazing parallels between sports fanatisism and my own music fanatisism:
Watching football at home Listening to local college station
Going to Game Going to show
Reading Sports Illustrated Reading Magnet
espn.com pitchfork.com
fantasy football starting a band
Playing sports playing music
Knowledge of sports stats knowledge of thousands of band's, band member's
On and On. My question is why are both of these, in general (no flames!), male pursuits?

Posted by: lee on January 24, 2003 9:11 PMFootball is too boring, but I will be sure to watch the commercials, they are far more interesting.

The guys with the swords on their logo won.
Gannon would be the bad guy from Zelda, IIRC.
