Super Bowl XLVIII is this Sunday February 2, 2014! Two tough and talented teams, the Seattle Seahawks with the best defense and the Denver Broncos with the best offense will play the last game of the season to determine the Super Bowl champion. The matchup will be held at MetLife Stadium in Rutherford, New Jersey, the first outdoor cold-weather stadium to host the Super Bowl. The temperature is expected to be in the 40’s and in the 30’s later in the evening. We look forward to watch and do a lot of snacking during the game.

For me personally, this Super Bowl game will be hard not to cheer for both teams.
Why? . . . . .
Reason #1 . . . . . The Seattle Seahawks is the home town team. Bill and I have been living here in Washington State for many years and our kids enjoy watching the Seahawks play. Russell Wilson {quarterback} and Marshawn Lynch {running back} will be leading the Seahawks to their second appearance in the Super Bowl. The enthusiasm and excitement here in Washington State have been incredible. The nearby high school front entrance has a big banner displaying the number “12” in support of the team. The kids at Caleb’s elementary school took a short break and made the number “12” out in the field while the principle took their pictures. And of course the talk about the Seahawks are all over the local media and internet. It’s great to be a part of this. ‘Beast Mode!’
Reason #2 . . . . . I grew up in Wyoming and Colorado and watched the Denver Broncos play their games. During those years I saw the team go through many ups and downs and became a big fan of John Elway {quarterback}. The Broncos had suffered 4 Super Bowl losses and Elway was looking to retire from the game. In his final last two NFL seasons, Elway took the Broncos to the Super Bowl and won back to back Super Bowl XXXII and XXXIII. To win the the third Super Bowl with Peyton Manning as the quarterback will be incredible! ‘Time To Ride!’

Richard Sherman #25 & Peyton Manning #18
My son Caleb has been wearing the Seahawks and the Broncos colors to school. When ask about which team will he be cheering for, his answer was always, “Both teams!”.
Which team will you be cheering for?
