February the 5th 2012, day of the super bowl has arrived! I know that to most of you guys this is just another sports event, but believe me: this is not just any sports event. It is the biggest sports event in the world and 800 million people are expected to be watching it all around the world. Can you imagine how much money a 30sec advertisement during this event costs? Some companies spend up to 5 million $ just for their promotion during a super bowl. The sport itself almost becomes secondarily, however, for the fan of the sport it's more about a clash of the two best NFL teams and just like in this year also about the clash of two of the greatest Quarterbacks: Tom Brady against Eli Manning.
True fans of the sport might recall Tom's "almost perfect season", when he went 16-0(reg-season) and (2-0post season) straight to the super bowl, just to lose against..
Eli Manning! Tom therefore has a bone to pick with Eli and for me, personally, there could not have been a better super bowl after my Cowboys missed the playoffs, unfortunately.
I shout out to my family in the states, if they read this. I'm sure there will be a great super bowl party with the whole family gathering to watch. Dad & I will surely watch this over here as well and maybe have our own tiny party with friends.
My pick: I'm sure it will stay close until the very end but I think Brady will overcome Eli this time and will tie Joe Montana's record for 4 times super bowl champion..
New England wins, your picks?
XO, Dré.
