Glorious idea :o) I took it easy last night, but the year the Giants won the Superbowl, you couldn't have carried me into work!
My husband declared last night that Super Bowl Sunday should be a holiday and Monday should be a holiday for mourning/rejoicing.
@hotchildinthecity SAME HERE!!!! re: the Giants, I am their no. 1 fan ;)
I think I am just going to start requesting the Monday after Superbowl off in advance. Yep, seems like a good time for a yearly 3-day "vacation" LOL
@Krissy: You can't be their number one fan, because that's me LoL
The year the Giants won, I actually did take the day off of work. Considering that I got to the bar at 11am and ending the evening by hugging random people on the street in sheer excitement (and drunkeness), that was probably the best choice ;o)
Ha, well, I do not agree. I'm not into sports at all, and I didn't even watch the Super Bowl. Neither did my husband. Today was just a regular Monday for us, and if we were to add another national holiday, I wouldn't want it to be about sports. I don't think it's necessary to need a day of reflection over a football game. Just sayin'.
We were saying how they should move the Superbowl to a Saturday night. Why does it need to be a Sunday? If it was Saturday, you could party and not have to call in sick the next day to sleep!
A coworker told me that the day AFTER super bowl is the #2 "sick day" in the US. Right behind Jan 1
I don't think so, then again I'm not into football. lol. I agree with goldilocks, though not everyone wouls still have sunday off.
I don't think it should be a holiday. It's just a game. If people want to drink themselves into a stupor, or stay up all night on a sunday celebrating or mourning, that's their business. Take the day off, or suck it up and go to work! It's just a game.
Um all I can say is that I don't give a rat's ass about football but I feel like crap today and wish I had it off. Everyone else seems to care about it so I get dragged to parties and there's food and beer everywhere. Blech. If today was a holiday I could be napping on my couch which is really all I want to be doing right now.
I am 100% for Super Bowl Monday. I don't actively celebrate President's Day or Columbus Day, but they are holidays. At least I'd have a holdiay not in the last quarter of the year I'd actually have a reason to be off from school or work.
Every Monday should be a holiday! Superbowl Monday would be pretty awesome, especially for those of us who don't do heavy celebrating.
Well, on one hand, I hate football. So no.
But on the other hand, I love days off. So yes.
This thread title made me laugh. I'd like to point out that a number of people are getting Super Bowl Monday off, since the DC area was whalloped with snow over the weekend and the federal government closed all offices today. So that worked out, if you know, you're into snowball fights, cabin fever and running out of milk. :)
I'm with Minutiae that EVERY Monday should be a holiday! Hah! But then we'd prob. all hate Tuesdays too. LOL
I'm gonna say No on the Monday after Superbowl but I will say that I usually take St. Patrick's Day off, and sometimes the day after. ;)
I don't think it should be a holiday. I do agree with Goldilocks that they should start having the SuperBowl on Saturday though. I didn't drink last night, but I am exhausted because I got home an hour later than my bedtime. Also I feel kinda sick today since I ate approximately 20 lbs of fried food yesterday.... ugh.
Considering how grumpy and tired my second graders were today from staying up too late, I'm all in favor. Today was not a pleasant day!
I think it should be moved to Saturday, too. I'm tired of having to not party too hard on Sunday superbowl nights.
No, it shouldn't be! My fiance and I don't care about football. I'm gonna go watch the Superbowl Ads on Hulu, though :)
I definitely think it should be a holiday! Even if you don't watch football, who doesn't want a day off from work/school? Over 100 million people watched the Superbowl last night. I'm sure they'd appreciate the day off, especially if their team wins and they're up celebrating all night. I also think that the Superbowl should stay on Sunday. "Superbowl Saturday" just doesn't sound right, and almost every NFL game is on Sunday throughout the regular season, so I think it should stay on Sunday for the Superbowl.
