About the funniest, way off the-unintentionally-funny scale thing going on in the U.S. this time of year are all the substitute terms being used in reference to the Superior Bowl® by people and businesses that do not want to have to fork over a royalty payment to the legal entity that represents the highest level of professional American gridiron football, associated.
It's a bit comical to hear one of the talking heads not affiliated with the United States based league of gridiron football teams refer to this coming Sunday's sporting event as "the big game®" or "the big championship game®" or "the big season-ending championship game®" or some such variation.
However, the seriously funny references are the terms that are used by various advertisers or individuals that desire to be associated with that professional organization of oblong-shaped spheroid centered activity players forthcoming endgame.
Phrases such as "the ultimate full-contact football contest®", "the decisive determinizing duel®", "the conclusive pigskin playoff game®", or the "final conclusion of the professional football playoff tournament®" have been heard (someone got away with not only suggesting "final conclusion" as appropriate, but actually using it).
I suggest that creating a bingo game using every term or phrase known to refer to this Sunday's "penultimate contestation for supremacy in the American professional heavily padded & helmeted football sporting event®" as the various squares would be a great, fun way to spend tomorrow afternoon watching the hours and hours of pre-game deification of the broadcast.
Except for phrases and terms that are the property of the NFL and are reserved for the private use of their audience, and may not be reproduced or transmitted in any form without express written consent, of course.
