A Miserable Spectacle

A sporting event watched by the multitude took place last night. The contest for the championship of American professional football was neither competitive nor entertaining. The first play from scrimmage set the tone and gave the team from the Pacific Northwest momentum and a lead they would never relinquish as the snap from center went astray and the team from the Mile High City crumbled. The team of the superstar quarterback seemingly lost the will to compete after that botched snap and some hard hits by the league's most dominant defense. Even the special teams of the boys from the Rocky Mountains failed them as they gave up a touchdown on a long return to a former Florida Gator who had been out with injuries all season. In this instance, the commercials were more interesting than the football but that is not saying much.
