The 3rd Worst Day Of The Year – The Day After The Super Bowl
How the fuck is today not a national holiday yet? Behind the Day After New Years and The Day After Labor Day is Super Bowl Monday. We celebrate fake ass holidays like Columbus Day and MLK Day but we can’t get a Super Bowl Monday off? President’s Day is in a couple weeks, why can’t we just celebrate that on the first Monday in February every year? Who knows when George Washington was really born anyway. Or why don’t they just have the Super Bowl on Saturday? They take a fucking week off for Media Week anyway, just play on that second Saturday and let us have Sunday to recover. Everyone would still watch.
Bottom line is making everyone work today is as un-American as it gets. And not just because of the hangover and the food coma and waking up dead tired. The Monday after the Super Bowl is the end of my football season. Yea, the Jets were out of it by week 8, but I was still out there every Sunday. I may not be on the field every Sunday but for 20 like 20 straight weeks I’m at the bar spending too much money drinking too much booze eating too much food rooting way too hard for a shitty football team. As far as I’m concerned, I’m competing in my own right. And after it all comes to an end I think I earned one day off to manage that depression. Forget about debt ceilings and fiscal cliffs and shit, Obama! Just move up President’s Day 2 weeks and leave your mark on America for the rest of eternity.
If you’re gonna torture us with two weeks of hype, bullshit and manufactured story lines, play on a Saturday. This day is lowest productivity and highest absenteeism day of the year.
Just have the Super Bowl on Saturday. It’s one less day to prepare, not a big deal, and everyone will be more productive on Monday because they’re not tired/hungover/in jail.
Don’t you forfeit the right to complain about work when you become a full-time blogger? I think that’s gotta be part of the deal.
Don’t worry, if you turn on ESPN, they’ll still be talking football. Today, tomorrow, next week, next month, in May, in the Summer, all the way up to the start of next season. It’s like the season never ended.
Shut up Tico. This isnt KFC’s personal diary it’s a blog targeted to a certain demographic, most of which are at work right now hating life. And yes I too am at work, hung over, shitting fire, and fucking pissed about it.
gee, didn’t see this blog coming. We get it… Monday’s after holidays and events suck. get new schtick.
no way can the day after 4th of july not be included as one of the top two worst days of the year.
Been at work for 2 hours now office half empty and going on my second shit of the morning fuck my life
This coming from a guy who writes about tits while in his underwear. Imagine how those of us with real jobs feel.
My liver fucking hates me.

Yeah KFC, I know that you can relate. Waking up at 10am, right next to your hostess donuts. The strength you must have to then open up your laptop and start scouring your favorite websites and having to pick which articles you want to plagiarize. Rough life man. I applaud you.
definitely will not be buying rysis 3 today
I called in sick today. Best decision I’ve ever made.
I don’t know who i feel worse for: guys like me in their own office / now gas chamber; or the cubicle open plan set-up….guys doing drive-bys / crop-dusting, having to hold it in, clashing releases.
If you don’t use a vacation day for the Monday after the Super Bowl you’re an asshole.
^ right, because there’s no better thing to do then announce to your entire company that you have no ability to reign in your drinking.
Anyday spent worrying about fried chicken and tacos is a bad day. You lose, Kevin.
I don’t know about you guys, but if I called in sick today, my boss would rip me a new asshole tomorrow.
Only dirty Jew would work today now that I think about it day after Super Bowl would be a good day to drop the tactical nuke on manhattan. Only a filthy jew would be at work it is on the list or next year
Manzosucks. Is either. JEW or GAY
