Counting down, it's almost here! In approximately 24 hours, it will be Super Bowl XLV...Super Bowl Sunday! Some of us wait all year for this day; having parties, buying food and drinks, playing football pools, and gathering in large crowds for this "big" event. But...what does this day really mean? What exactly is the Super Bowl? Well...it is only the highest level of professional American football in the United States. It is the championship game of the season of the National Football League (NFL). The game was created as part of a merger agreement between the NFL and its then-rival league, the American Football League (AFL). It was agreed that the two leagues' champion teams would play in an AFL - NFL World Championship Game until the merger was to officially begin in 1970. After the merger, each league was redesignated as a "conference" (the AFC and NFC), and the game was then played between the conference champions.
So now that you have the "skinny" on the Super Bowl...are you ready for some football? I am! Which team do you think will take it all home: the ring, the trophy, the money, the celebration of happiness? Will it be the AFC - Pittsburgh Steelers or the NFC - Green Bay Packers? Guess we will have to wait and see! So go and get those chips, wings, favorite beverages and Stay Tuned 'cause they're going to be Ballin'!!!
