bellabooks) and Olex (mostlyhere) for the spread of Superbowl snacks that entirely consisted of crescent rolls. (Oh, crescent rolls, how I love thee...) We had jokingly tossed around the idea of only eating crescent rolls at the Superbowl a while back and they totally ran with it! We had crescent roll pizzas, crescent rolls stuffed with mushrooms and spinach and fennel, crescent rolls stuffed with buffalo chicken and blue cheese and celery, and pigs in a blanket. They were also going to put chocolate in crescent rolls for dessert but we were all so burned out on crescent rolls by that point.
Woah, starch coma, and we'll probably all be constipated for days. But really, how can you NOT love folks who will make a 5 course crescent roll smorgasbourd for you?
xxxoooxxxooo

I suppose it had to happen sometime. I really was okay with the idea of being the Ratbutt1 because I knew the Steelers were favored to win. I had friends who were very passionate on both sides, but when it was my turn to choose teams, I chose the Seahawks for volumeat11 because he'd just trekked out to Seattle for his 30th. (Sorry, kungfoogirl!)
It actually would have been a much closer game than I'd anticipated if the Steelers weren't a bunch of big cheaty cheaters. What was up with that first touchdown of theirs, the one that was about one yard away from the line but then he moved his arm after he hit the ground and stuck it out there? And then the replay judges saw the all-angles tape and /still/ decided that was in? Good gravy, whose payroll were they on?
And how about the fact that the referrees called 8783467863872617814 flags on Seattle but, like, NONE on Pittsburgh? What was that all about?
I'll wear my Ratbutt name with pride this year, because I'd rather be a Ratbutt than a stinky cheater!
Also, the commercials were incredibly disappointing this year. I liked the 'revolving door and magical fridge' Bud Light ad. And I liked the Ameriquest one with the dead fly. And of course I loved the Emerald Nuts one. But otherwise? Naah.

1Every year, Guy and I pick Superbowl teams to win. The winner gets to call the loser "Ratbutt" for a whole year. (This doesn't matter as much now as we don't communicate as much as we used to, but still.) We've done this for 8 years, and though I don't follow football AT ALL, and though we take turns getting first pick of teams, I've never lost until tonight. It started as his ploy to get me to watch the Superbowl, because he is a HUGE football fan. It's always been our little "thing."
