My thoughts of the Super Bowl (part II)


Here was my Super Bowl. My thoughts during game -- between me and me and then shared via email with Batkin.  

I don't know why I am pulling for the Packers, but I am pulling for the Packers. i wonder if Batkin is watching. I wonder if he's yelling at the T.V. Are all those colored lines generated by the T.V. people. How do they do that. Seemed like that one guy held onto the ball long enough to not call it an incomplete, but maybe i only think that because I saw it in slo-mo, so it seems longer to me. Doesn't that one big guys' curly hair sticking out of his helmut ever get caught when he's tackling/being tackled. How is that not a hazard. How many coaches do they have for heaven's sake. i mean really I would like to know. How do they keep each team from intercepting the airwaves for the communications on those Motorola headsets. 

Surely they've thought that one through. i wonder if  Batkin is wearing a ball cap while he watches. Is he yelling at the t.v. now.  Is it really true what they say about the big guys with the big guts still having really low body fat, seriously how can that be. I hope the music sounds better live than what we are hearing. These commercials aren't so great, except maybe the one about Coke and the two border guards that are supposed to be in some made up Kazakhastan. I wonder if Batkin is watching the game somewhere woody.*** Why did they let both teams wear yellow pants, with just differences in socks and stripes. Seems like they could have worked that out ahead of time. One simple phone call. Fergie's looking a little chubby in her Swarovski crystal football getup. 

*** Note to reader: ('woody' refers to stupid joke involving the Olive Garden, bad food, and out of date interiors,  and Batkin's limited vocabulary when describing interiors where he finds himself. When I asked him what some place looked like, he said, 'woody.' Pathetic. Enough said. But I promise you, Batkin does not have the taste of say a Dwell reader, or an Architectural Digest subscriber for that matter..)

Who am I?

I 'm a writer  launching a new online community and book made for the gyspy in all of us. I've spent  3 decades and 15,000 hours 'in search of' -- so if its out there and in english, i've probably tried it -- from acro yoga to the wilds of brazil -- fitness, relationship, bohemian travel, and a heck of a lot of therapy. To celebrate all those adventures to be had,  my friends and I have created a weekly slice of fresh talk, image and adventure from those carving out unexpected lives. Whether we talk of wild places, living until 125 or love, loss and hideous headlines -- the intent is to pluck the ripe fruit of life while we've got it. I would love to connect with people around the world. Looking fwd to hearing from you guys! :)

Super Bowl Sunday and my highly evolved, insightful, (frankly idiotic) set of thoughts!


So here is a post of sorts: 

I know very little about football, but appreciate it as something I would like to  intelligently know about (which I do not). I  have a fantasy that there's some football sports obsessed guy in life who feels a compulsive need to educate me. For now I have a  heartful correspondence on the matter with a (male) friend named Batkin who is well aware how much of a dullard I am in this department. But truth be told, I would appreciate  football as this new something to know something about, you know? For now, I know next to nothing. i watched this year with two of my friends in my hood here, with their little boy and some of their friends. 

So allow me to present to you the full extent of my highly evolved, insightful, (frankly idiotic) set of thoughts between me and me that I shared via email with my sports-obsessed friend, Batkin. He is one of my favorite friends to correspond with, hands down, sports or no. On any topic really. He is the same guy who has single handedly renamed any man I have ever dated: Tricycle Boy, Dog-Humper, O.B.P. (On Bended Pee, long story...) Merger-Dropper (that one I came up with myself and he adopted). Ernesto, Brooklyn....One of his old girlfriend's (well,  it was more interlude than girlfriend,  lets call it) we call R.B. (Rabbit Boiler, our homage to Fatal Attraction). He also calls anytime I date Date-A-Pa-Looza...but that is also another correspondence as well. For now we'll stick with sports. But you get the picture.

More to come....
