The NFL has never ceased to amaze me in its mass appeal. And the Super Bowl time slot is virtually as sacred of a time slot on calendars as New Year’s Eve, July 4th, Christmas Eve. Perhaps every holiday other than thanksgiving and Christmas (both of which I spent considerable portions of watching NFL football).

But you know I’m all for diverse interests - as much as I follow and discuss football with folks (it’s likely my widest circle), I eagerly engage with people on software engineering, personal finance, youth sports parenting, international travel planning, home automation, MLB, and of course theatre every now and then. I appreciate the different relationships I have surrounding each of these, although interestingly not a lot of them overlap.

It was my first Super Bowl and I enjoyed watching the sport on TV, especially as I've been to the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for a College Football match. I like the way you weave this event into your commentary on the polarisation of US politics, Charlie. I also took in your conversation with Stefanie Lindquist, which was very interesting. Thanks again, for a super informative and lively post.
