The Voice

A common belief among sports fans — okay mostly among male sports fans — is that women have no idea what’s going on this Sunday.?Okay, we admit that between all of us we could only name one of the teams that will be playing.
When you get ready for the Superbowl this year, you may be surprised to find that the women in your life may have taken your favorite spot on the couch, hogging your cheese dip and eating your wings.
You may be wondering why a group of females would be biting our nails in anticipation for the game.?? No, it’s not because we can’t wait to see if they will run the ball or whose quarterback will get sacked.? We can’t wait until Sunday for three reasons:? the friends, the food and the commercials!
Sure the events of the Superbowl ultimately decide which team will triumph over all of humanity, but we just want to try out all the snacks.? Wings, nachos, pretzels and beer!? Mmm, Superbowl Sunday — the national holiday of finger foods.
When we watch the Superbowl, we are also interested in the crazy commercials.? We can’t wait to see what Pepsi and Coke will come up with to wow us this year. Who can forget about the Budweiser frogs?? Those little cuties were just hilarious!
We are also looking forward to Superbowl Sunday because it will bring our friends together, and you can’t help but get caught up in the excitement of the day.
We here at The Colonnade stand firm in our conviction that the Superbowl is not only for the most fanatical sports-lovers.? Even if our only prediction for the game is that the Panther’s uniforms will not be very intimidating (come on, they’re baby blue), we are looking forward to this weekend just as much as you sports buffs are.? And hey – some women might even be able to name both of the teams playing!
