   Super Bowl commercials peaked about twenty years ago. As for halftime shows, remember the one with Indiana Jones and Marion stealing the idol? That was the last one I watched.I just tune in for a football game.

   I had one of the Polaris nuclear subs as a kid. Big enough for two of us, though it was a tight squeeze. Yes, they were made of cardboard, but our imaginations made up for any shortcomings. I have fond memories of that sub.

   I live in New Mexico, and while it can get hot, it’s nothing compared to Arizona.

   Unless you’re wearing a catcher’s mask, turn the darn cap around.

   “He” is correct (even when addressing a group composed of both sexes.)

   A 60-plus yard field goal should be a once in every ten years event. Yet we’ve had four this year, if I recall correctly.

   Possible solution: Do away with that overinflated, specialized kicking ball. Make them kick the same ball that is currently in the game. Ironically, the kicking ball was originally put in to keep kickers from doctoring it. Yet I understand they now allow kickers to “condition” the kicking balls, and furthermore several kickers have opined that the “K” balls are actually optimized for kicking.

   Wonderful to see all the nostalgic memories related here. Too bad a couple of race-baiting trolls had to spoil it.

    Agreed about “gift” as a verb. It’s supposed to sound modern and trendy I guess, but it just sounds ignorant.

    As for “impact” use it as a noun if you mean a literal violent collision. Otherwise, use “effect.”If you use “impact” as a verb, you should hit yourself over the head with a sledgehammer.
