Well, it had to happen. \u00a0At some point in my life the Patriots would have to make the Superbowl against the Seahawks. \u00a0My beloved team (ok my team, I don’t know if i would say Beloved since I haven’t followed them my entire life etc) beat the Colts last night (in a wet wet thumping) and now play against the Seahawks (who beat the packers in a pretty epic game to be honest) in 2 weeks time. \u00a0Now how do you handle a person who has been a Seahawks fan all her life, lives in Seattle, breathes Seattle and is die hard. \u00a0Well I just have to.<\/p>\n
But this post really has a history stemming back to the start of the season, Heidi & I put down a bet that had to do with our teams. \u00a0If either of our teams make the superbowl, then that person could have a new jersey ready for the superbowl if they want. \u00a0However there was a 2nd clause. \u00a0If either person’s team won the superbowl, then the other party in the marriage had to have a jersey of that team. \u00a0This could get very interesting, as now that both of our teams are in the superbowl, 1 of us is getting 2 new jerseys, it is just going to be a matter of who gets an unwanted jersey \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
To ensure safety and sanity in our household for the next two weeks, Heidi & I have banned all football talk, so this will be the last from me in regards to this game. \u00a0Heidi & I both want to make sure we come out of this in one whole piece and intact with sane minds. \u00a0But I know we can do it! \u00a0I am not going to spend the next two weeks throwing the patriots out there, I will be respectful (since I like my life in one piece) and I will only talk about the game unless someone approaches me about it. \u00a0That way I don’t have people saying I am the one starting stuff.<\/p>\n
I will end with one thing.<\/p>\n
