0:00.0	Super Bowl. That's it. Football season is over. Super Bowl is nothing personal.
0:20.7	We're the day today is Monday, February, 2021. Even people who don't like football are watching
0:27.5	the Super Bowl or at least they're hanging out at Super Bowl parties and eating food that's
0:32.4	not good for you and pretending that it doesn't matter and then starting over today Monday morning.
0:39.2	I got quite a few things I want to mention that happened to me yesterday during the course of
0:43.8	the Super Bowl because this was not an ordinary Super Bowl Sunday for myriad reasons but the most

2:11.7	City Chiefs with the greatest of right now Patrick Mahomes and quarterback. That would be the dream
2:17.9	matchup in a year that's basically been a nightmare. The NFL we have talked to death about COVID,
