Wisconsin’s own Bob Cook–one of the famous four dudes who claimed to have never missed a Super Bowl (not pictured)–missed Sunday’s Super Bowl due to illness.

He was getting ready to go to the airport when he put his foot down and said, ‘I don’t think I can make it,’” said Cook’s daughter Cheryl Cook. “My heart broke for him.”

“We were trying to see if we could get a private jet and a doctor or a nurse to go with him to get him down there if we could,” said Cook.

Cook watched the game with family from a hospital bed. He says he’s planning to go to next year’s game, but what’s the point? Streak’s over, man.

Daniel Tosh of Tosh-point-oh fame made a spoof of a credit card commercial, and I showed it to my dad and he thought it was a very funny goof and a spoof. I don’t understand how the WNBA gets all of this free publicity, but who would they be to look a gift muff in the mouth.

“We’ve missed commitment ceremonies, Lilith Fairs, LPGA finals, parades. Even that one day we’re allowed at Disney World.”

I guess it’s funny because they’re lesbians that like sports. Whatever. This is why I can’t stand Tosh, he’s just a smug little ass that makes easy, uncreative jokes at everything. “Here’s another kid puking and a viral video that circulated through the blogs two months ago.” Great job, Daniel.

A couple people have sent me this item on Larry Jacobson, the 71-year-old “Never Miss A Super Bowl Club member who told an interesting story about how the Big Game helped shape his family life.

Jacobson and his wife were participating in an open adoption in the 1970s and he says the birth mother’s only prerequisite was that the adoptive parents be present for the birth of the baby. The problem was that the baby was due on Super Bowl weekend.

“I said it’s no problem,” he recalls. “I’ll take the red-eye (flight), watch the game and take the red-eye back. That was fine with my wife, but it wasn’t with the mother.”

Because of Larry’s growing obsession, he and his wife passed on that adoption but later adopted two biological sisters, neither of which knew until recently the story of the abandoned adoption.

“My daughter said she was glad about the Super Bowl,” Jacobson says. “If we’d gotten that child, we wouldn’t have gotten our daughters. So they think the Super Bowl is a good thing.”

I’ve had it with these pregnant mothers and their ridiculous demands. I AM WATCHING FOOTBALL ON SUNDAY AND I WILL ADOPT YOUR CHILD WHEN I AM GOOD AND READY. Football is way more important than family; when was the last time football made you spend 70 bucks on a wedding gift? Do the dishes? Tell you that he was gay? Football is the perfect child that never grows up. And that kid? It was Jeff Reed. No, that’s probably not true, but it’d be cooler if it was…
