Day 157: Post Super Bowl at Mi Casa

I will start this post with some words I never thought would be uttered from my lips: congratulations Eli Manning on winning the Super Bowl. Now, I will continue with some words I have spoken many times: Joe Montana is so much better than Tom Brady that it causes me physical pain any time they are mentioned in the same sentence unless it is to say how much better (qualitatively or quantitatively) Joe is! During what was undoubtedly was the greatest non-Niners Super Bowl in history (especially the one where we kicked the crap out of the Stan Humphries, Natron Means, and the rest of the 1994 Chargers!), I had stuffed such a monstrous amount of brownies, chips, guac, and beer down my gullet that I was unsure if I would be able to keep a taco down. around 10PM, my bloated belly had subsided to a level at which I was comfortable that immediate vomiting would not occur if I attempted to choke down my daily requirement. Vegetarian seemed like the healthiest option in light of what I had done to my body during the previous sports-filled hours, so I filled a tortilla with beans, guac, and tasty cowboy caviar (a spectacular concoction my sister had thrown together), and threw caution to the wind. Yum! It never ceases to amaze me how delicious a taco can be even in such dire digestive straights as I found myself in Sunday night.

OK, I agree that Montana is on his own level. But what really was teh impetitus for the 49ers 1980's Super Bowl run? Was it Joe? Was it Bill Walsh's football genius that allowed a new brand of football to fully take advantage of Joe's stronger attributes? Was it Eddie D. (How we miss such good ownership) and his largess and desire to win? Or was it the perfect storm of having 3 of the best players to put on the uni: Joe, Rice and Lott, having the Coach with new ideas: Walsh, enjoy the generosity of an owner who was more interested in winning than anything else and making money by accident: Eddie D? It is a debate for the ages. No matter how you cut it, the 49ers didn't lose a Super Bowl to a man named Elisha. What a great day indeed.

Hey now there is no reason to take a gratuitous shot at Stan and the boys just because you cant stomach the fact that Brady is a taco supreme and Joe is just a taco regular.

Get your facts straight buddy:

The latest estimate gave Clinton 582 of the 1,681 delegates at stake Tuesday, compared with 562 for Obama. It will take time to determine the final distribution because of complicated formulas.

CNN's overall count showed Clinton leading at this point in delegates with 823 to Obama's 731. They'll need 2,025 to secure their party's nomination.
