Peanut . . . .Peanut butter AND JELLY!!

Posted on 7:32 AM by Unknown
WOW - what a game. The Badger played a near perfect game yesterday and for the very first time in Wisconsin history a guy scores a triple double (double digits scoring, rebounding and assists).

But forget that - I can not WAIT for the football game tonight - GO PACKERS - I HOPE THEY WIN!

WHAT?  it was yesterday? Are you kidding me?   MAN - why did I not turn the TV on at the liqueur store! STUPID STUPID STUPID!
---------------------------------

OK - seriously sweet game! However - I can almost guarantee our house had the weirdest Superbowl celebration of all.

You know when you have an infant (I think 2 years is still an infant right?) you do weird things to make them smile. Well, one thing we do with Caydence is the Peanut butter and Jelly Dance. She loves it! Peanuuuut . . . .Peanut butter AND JELLY.

Well, the Bears are driving and most of Wisconsin residents hearts are in their throats and BAM interception! We all let out a WHOOOP!!! and as the "P" hits the airway in WHOOOP we realize that Caydence, who is not real big on loud sudden screams and surprises, will not feel the same joy we are feeling.

I believe DJ was holding Caydence and as she starts to get that little birdy lip in preparation to the big cry DJ breaks out in the Peanut butter song and instantly we all follow!

So as we're all high fiving each other with glee we're all singing and dancing Peanuuuut     Peanut butter AND JELLY over and over again! I'm pretty sure Caydence thought that was the most enthusiastic Peanut Butter song she as ever seen and loved it!
----------------------------
OK the game -

I've been railing on the Special Teams all year and I tell ya - I give Time Masthay, the punter, the game ball (if I actually had a game ball and wanted to give it away which I would not). Outstanding.  The rest of the  Special Teams still pretty much sucked!

I also give a game ball to Julius Peppers for a bone head crushing the passer penalty which seemed to work in "our" favor (although Rogers was not quite the same after that play). And - it has not been reported but Rogers, I believe,  DID have a concussion but let's keep that a secret - I figure when QB has trouble focusing as he "shakes it off" and then goes on to play sub-par  . . . .shhhhhhhhh!    

The Packers are 2.5 point favorites in the SuperBowl and tickets are about $2,750 each which is probably normal!  

And for anyone counting the LOSER of the Superbowl each get on;y and extra $38,000 while the winners get $73,000 each. 

As for the SuperBowl - this is a pretty big game for the NFL with two teams that have probably the best fans.  As Peter King says  "In the 45-year history of Super Bowls, there's never been one with such history. Never has there been a title game with two teams more than 75 years old. And never has there been a matchup of teams with as many Super Bowl titles -- Pittsburgh six, Green Bay three.

And Jerry Jones, you built the big Arlington ballyard, halfway between Dallas and Fort Worth, for occasions just like this --a Super Bowl dripping with history, and with fans who would walk a thousand miles to see the game. I can just hear those voices that spoke to Kevin Costner in Field of Dreams. Kind of. You built it, Jerry, and they will come. Oh, they will most definitely come."

Have a nice Monday!!
