Today is not a national holiday ... yet
You had to drag your sorry, hung-over rear end back to the workplace today, right? Bummer.
If only the Monday after the Super Bowl was a national holiday.
If only there was a way to speak up, and make someone take notice that America deserves its day of hangover from the biggest sporting clustermess of the year (because it hasn't been long enough since the last national holiday, MLK Day, and we can't wait until President's Day).
Over the weekend, I became petition signer No. 16,526 in trying to push the process along in trying to make Super Bowl Monday a national day of sloth. I will soon write my Congressmen about this pressing issue.
You'd think someone like John Kerry, who twisted the NFL's arm to get the final Patriots' game on over-the-air TV, would be the first to get behind this, right?
The guys who run the website SuperBowlMonday.com have been trying their darndest to get this thing rolling.
You can vote yes or no as for whether to make Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday that would be celebrated on the following Monday.
You make the call. Be an athletic holiday supporter. Then go buy a T-shirt. Then take two more asprin and call in sick.
