Since there aren't enough articles floating around the internet about the Super Bowl already, I thought I would write one. Has football ever done anything to hurt me personally? Nope. Has football ever done anything to help me? Nope. Most of my friends and family enjoy football, and that is a personal preference that I am totally okay with. I've watched my share of football games, and I'll probably watch many more. But, honestly, I hate football; when I watch it, I'm watching it not because I enjoy the game, the loud screaming, or the commercials, but because I care about the people I'm watching it with. It is hard to follow, it looks painful, and baseball is a million times better. So, I thought I'd share my personal list of 12 things I could have done instead of watching the Super Bowl yesterday (or watching football, ever). Here's to hoping this article doesn't get me killed.

1. Had a meaningful conversation with someone.

2. Caught up on my favorite Netflix series.

3. Stayed in the kitchen and eat the Super Bowl snacks.

4. Gone on a run outside.

5. Played actual football outside with friends.

6. Read a book.

7. Done the homework I should have been working on.

8. Gone to dinner with friends.

9. Counted how many days until baseball season.

10. Gone grocery shopping while everyone else was glued to the TV.

11. Gone shopping literally anywhere and had the store to myself.

12. Taken a nap.
