Star TrekSome of you may already know that Kelly and I are Trekkies, and all day Sunday was a marathon day of the Star Trek: Enterprise series. (OK, I’m putting in my first retraction: Kelly and & are not “true Trekkies” we are Star Trek fans. I guess there is a big difference so I stand corrected.)

At the same time, we didn’t totally ignore the BIG GAME (Super Bowl) that was going on. We did flip the channel during commercials, but it didn’t look like much was happening.

It just so happens, that we caught the most exciting and important “last 2 minutes” of the Giant’s Upset for the 14-17 win… and it was unbelievable!

Did you know?

  • Inner Mongolia Satellite TV broadcasted the Super Bowl game nation wide in China.
  • A 30 second Super Bowl commercial spot cost $2.7 million.
  • You can watch all the Super Bowl commercials on the web…imagine that, watching commercials on purpose!
  • Super Bowl Sunday is the 2nd largest day of food consumption behind Thanksgiving…
  • It is estimated that there were 97 million Sunday viewers of the game, making it the 2nd most watched televised program ever…
  • Only the final showing of Mash in 1983 had a higher viewing of some 106 million

I guess the next big event is, “Super Tuesday”…(No chads in Florida)
