My Super Bowl prediction:

I predict that I will watch not one single minute of the game.

I predict at least one of the Rolling Stones will pass away during the half time show.

Well, I watched my first Superbowl in about 10 years.

I was surprised that the Stones put on a pretty good show. I mean considering they are like 150 years old.

I feel a little disappointed that Seattle lost.

I miss the days when they showed boobies at half-time.

I caught a bit of the game.

I think the 4th quarter no fumble call on the Seattle quarterback was bullshit and it reminded me of why I rarely watch NFL games. I mean is this what the game has turned into? "OMG he was touched BRIEFLY ON THE WAY TO THE GROUND! No fumble!"

I'm happy for Jerome Bettis. Regardless of what kind of person he is, if anyone deserves a Superbowl Ring after 15 years of running through linemen, its him.

Especially since very few Running backs last 10 years in the NFL.

It also opens the door for all sorts of rules lawyering. In that respect it's actually somewhat analogous to the American judicial system, as opposed to the Canadian judicial system. Rulings in the latter rely much more heavily in legislative intent in drafting the law, wheras in the former the wording of the law is more important.

The upshot: Canadian laws can be worded vaguely (cf. our hate speech laws), but it's okay because judges know what the government meant (said laws have been applied only once, and completely properly). Kinda funny, but it works for us. Smile

IANAL, but wouldn't vaguely worded laws just make case law that much more relevant?

You mean legal precedent? Yes, that too.
