Reasons you want to watch the Super Bowl (other than the fact that it is the freaking Super Bowl)

1. Larry Fitzgerald - Check here, here, here, here,or here to figure out that the national media is at least enamored with Larry Fitzgerald. And honestly for good reason - he is really, really good. His craft is an entertaining one in and of itself, but when someone is performing that craft at a highest level, it is a thing of beauty. It's not really a sports thing - okay it is, but this guy is amazing, to say the least.

2. Kurt Warner coming back from the dead - Ok, obviously he wasn't really dead, but this guy has a totally rejuvenated career for like a 67th time. That's a story line enough.

3. The St. Louis Rams - Remember those fun St. Louis Rams days when he came out of the Arena League and the Greatest Show on Turf won that Super Bowl. Yeah, me too that was awesome and this Cardinal team is almost as entertaining. They have so many weapons and the same, albeit older quarterback pulling the trigger. Offense is much better to watch then defense and any curmudgeon who tells you otherwise is lying.

4. The University of Phoenix Stadium - You might think this is the home field for the University of Phoenix, then you remember that it's the University of Phoenix and you think that as much bad there is to say about the corporatization of sports sometimes it's just funny.

5. Pittsburgh vs Arizona - No not the Steelers vs. the Cardinals, the City of Pittsburgh vs. the City of Phoenix. As I type this it is 79 degrees in Phoenix and it is 20 degrees in Pittsburgh. For those keeping track at home that is like a 59 degree difference. 59 degrees! That is just the tip of the iceberg. I mean are they similar in anyway?

• West vs. East
  
• Northeast vs. Southwest
• traditonal vs. new
• old line steel city vs. emerging metropolis
• river city vs. desert city
  
• cheesesteak vs. tacos.
• Jeff Goldblum vs. David Spade
• Steven Spielberg vs. George A. Romero
  

(Random note: on the wikpedia page of famous people from the Pittsburgh area there were zero porn stars, on the wikipedia page of famous people from the Phoenix area there were six. I am not judging, I am just saying).
