proud to be a cheddar head!

It's the Sunday around the country that die hard football fans, bandwagon fans, and people at the parties just for the pigs in a blanket gather to watch the biggest game of the year. THE SUPER BOWL.

YES YES YES THE GREEN BAY PACKERS WON THE 2011 SUPER BOWL! This is fantastic news. Growing up around brothers who played football as well as watching football every Saturday and Sunday I love football and especially the Packers.
My Dad's side of the family are all from Wisconsin and have Green Bay running through our veins. It scared me in the second quarter when we had three guys down within a few minutes but we rallied and won!

The Super Bowl which aired on the FOX network for the last time until 2014, had 169.4 million viewers. This broke records of all previous Super Bowls in the past that averaged only 111 viewers. Next year the Super Bowl will be broadcasted on NBC Sports which will hopefully bring in big $ for the network if they can keep their viewership high as FOX has done.

The thing that stuck in my head as the overall loser even over the Pittsburgh Steelers was The Black Eyed Peas and their half-time performance. First off the sound system was absolutely terrible. You would think that at the biggest performance of the year whoever is in charge of the audio would have checked every second. That man or woman is for sure out of a job today. And also The Black Eyed Peas just seemed so so the only exciting part of the whole performance was when Usher did the splits!

After that terrible performance it was at least great to see the Packers Win. I wish I was able to wear one of the numerous cheddar heads we have at my house. oh well there is always next year!

Once a cheddar head always a cheddar head.
