Today is the Super Bowl, Super Bowl XLV actually February 6, 2011.  It is the Steelers vs the Packers.  I not actually too much a football fan, but I actually love a good football game.  I watch it every year ever since about 8 years ago.  It’s a good time to just kick back watch some funny commercials and watch a team go hard or go home.  Who are you guys hoping to win?  The underdog Steelers, or the fan favorites the Packers?

I will be watching, with a pack of beer and chips hopefully…

Facts on the Super Bowl:

Super Bowl XLV will be the 45th annual edition of the Super Bowl in American football, and the 41st annual championship game of the modern-era National Football League (NFL). The game, to be played on February 6, 2011, will pit the AFC champion Pittsburgh Steelers against the NFC champion Green Bay Packers to decide the NFL champion for the 2010 season.

The game will be held at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the first time that the Super Bowl will be held in the Dallas–Fort Worth area; and the third time it will be held in Texas (Houston was the host city to VIII and XXXVIII). Kickoff time is approximately 5:25pm CST (UTC-06). This will be the eighth appearance in the Super Bowl for the Steelers (who hold the record with six Super Bowl wins) and the fifth for the Packers (who hold the record with 12 overall NFL titles, including three Super Bowl wins and nine league titles prior to the Super Bowl-era). This will be the fourth time that two pre-expansion era (pre 1960) teams meet in the Super Bowl (XIV, XLI, and XLIII).

As of February 2, the Packers are two to three point favorites,[3] making this the first Super Bowl in which the Steelers were underdogs since Super Bowl XXX. In all four previous Super Bowls that Green Bay played in, they were favored to win.
