years Neven Subotic Jersey , I've opted for a third choice: gorge myself like silly ? there went that "Tight End!" ? put on headphones and do my best to ignore as much of the proceedings as possible. (I spent 1997's Super Bowl party in the bathroom after my Discman's batteries died ? thank God for the iPod!) As a result, I've become quite the expert at faking my way through Super Bowl Sunday with a special playlist and little-known sports factoids. PREGAME The Pixies, "Here Comes Your Man" The first thing to know about the Super Bowl: who's bringing the burgers? LOL. Seriously though, you need to know who is playing the game. This year it's the New England Patriots who have never lost a game since football was invented, and the New York Giants who have the cuter Manning brother (see I know some stuff!). And so in honor of the Patriots we have the Boston band the Pixies doing "Here Comes Your Man." I have a dance planned for this one. Do the Patriots need an extra cheerleader? LOL. Art Garfunkel, "Crying in the Rain" But you can't be too one-sided! You never know which team's uniforms you are going to like more, so you can't play favorites. So in honor of that famous New York City toughness and determination, we have to pick Art Garfunkel, whose no-holds-barred collaboration with James Taylor on "Crying in the Rain" really expresses what football is all about: being man enough to cry in the rain. Or score touch downs. They're both kinda the same thing. Lee Greenwood, "God Bless the USA" By this point that guy from the Ace Hardware commercials is probably done blabbing and so it's time for the national anthem. Boooo-ring! Seriously Moritz Leitner Jersey , if you aren't Whitney Houston in 1991, why even try? I've always liked "God Bless the USA" much more, so I listen to that instead. Holla! FIRST HALF Dios Malos, "Starting Five" Okay, you got me! This one is only "foot"-ball related in the title, but I'm so sick of hearing everyone debating during the game: "Who has the better starting five is it the Yankees or the Celtics or the 59rs or blah blah blah blah." Who cares! And so this song, so awesome and sweet and just soooo California, is my own gorgeous little protest. Also "dios" means days. Did you know that? It's Espanol! American Football, "I'll See You When We're Both Not So Emotional" American Football is a group formed by star quarterback-turned actor Joe Mantegna after poor night vision forced a premature departure from the game. Bummer! He didn't do it alone, though; that galloping bass you hear? That's legendary Pelicans running man Terry Bradshaw. Who's wielding that mighty axe? None other than Peyton Manning (and let's put a little extra emphasis on "Man"). And he used to bang pigskin Matthias Ginter Jersey , but
