Rex Grossman. Seriously. What the hell was that? I know it was wet but come on. Granted, you're better than Kyle Orton, but you have to step it up a little. It was a pretty sloppy game for the most part, somewhat close, somewhat compelling. But not one of the best by far. Even the commercials weren't great. They were OK. I like anything involving Robert Goulet, and the Bud Light commercials were par for the course for the most part. I tend to like the commercials that are completely idiotic yet genius and have aboslutely nothing to do with the product that is being sold. That being said, without a doubt my favorite commercial /promo was the one with David Letterman and Oprah. That is a smart commercial. Make me laugh and entertain me for thirty seconds. Not that difficult.
As for the pre-game, the whole Cirque du Soleil thing. That scared me a lot. I'm not even adequately prepared to write about it. The halftime, on the other hand, was pretty good. I thought Prince did a nice job, even though out of all the rock songs he could cover, he did a Foo Fighters song. Not even a good Foo Fighters song. I was kind of flabbergasted by that one, not gonna lie.
Anywho, onto the briefs:
1/30 - 1:37 A.M.
Up on Fulton St., a student's bike was stolen because, as it turns out, they had cabled the front wheel to the frame, leaving it open to being taken. The bike was later found at five in the morning at Upper West Cedar. So remember kids, always lock up your bikes and scooters and whatnot. Safety first.
1/31 - 5:50 P.M.
A call came into security from Leo reporting some missing laundry. An extensive search of the area was begun, and clothes-sniffing dogs were called in to search the entire Hudson Valley to find the clothes. People searched far and wide for them, and a state of national emergency was declared by President Bush. No one had any idea what happened to them. Did they blow up? Were they stolen? Did they jump in the river? Were they raptured? Where did they go?! Oh. Wait. They were on the floor of the laundry room. Nevermind.
