This is the day NFL fans have been waiting all season, Super Bowl Sunday. Philadelphia Eagles vs New England Patriots. Game time is 6:30 on NBC. The two teams met 13 years ago. The Patriots won 20-17 and are favored by most in todays encounter.
The game will be played in U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, MN. Al Michaels will do the play-by-play, Chris Collinsworth is analyst and Michele Tafoya will be the sideline reporter.
Bitter sweet for many fans in Minnesota. Would be better if the hometown Vikings were playing.
Thank goodness for an inside stadium.
Many TV fans will be glued to the tube all day long listening to talk shows coming out of DC, not me. Lord, bring the country together, don’t need more controversy, less would be better.
