He’s nowhere near the big event this year, but Tom Brady decided to garner all the attention (at least from certain websites such as this one) by posting a selfie of himself in his own underwear line. Well-played, sir, well-played. Rob Gronkowski, himself no stranger to underwear shots and other naked shenanigans, called Brady out and lamented he didn’t do it quite right by hiding the package. The Gronk would know, and that’s not something you usually hear. (No offense to Mr. Gronkowski.)
The last time I was really into the Super Bowl was in 2012, over a decade ago, when Madonna triumphantly headlined the half-time show and showed the world how it was done. Adam Levine made a shirtless play for our affections recently, and Beyoncé worked that stadium like gorgeous thunder, but I’m still partial to Madonna’s old-school theatrics.
As for this year, I have no idea who is even playing or what Dazzlers of the Day might strut their stuff on the field, and I’m not even all that excited to see Rihanna, but I’m happy to see others enjoy this day. Besides, it’s a chance to look back at all the ball-happy posts we’ve done in service of bowls super and otherwise over the years, as seen in the following links:
- A football talk with my brother.
- A shirtless football player.
- A sexy football romp.
- A treatise on balls of all kinds.
- A different kind of football.
- A Super Bowl mocktail.
- A Super Bowl spotlight.
- A gratuitous Super Bowl post.
- A super jockstrap post.
- Another jockstrap post.
- And one more jockstrap post.
- A naked Julian Edelman.
- A naked Rob Gronkowski.
- A naked Tom Brady.
- A sexy super trio.
