Complexity has no direct relation with dullness or not.
To a lot of people, it's dull. To a lot of people, it's exciting.

American football is one of the most complex teamwork sports, from the players on the field to the coaches on the ground to the coordinators at the top of the stadium. To be at the top of the game takes years of studying, such that it requires understanding thick playbooks and watching hours of film just for the next opponent.

The Egyptian people support these non-profit groups for their support of them during their fight for democracy. It's the old guards at the Egyptian government who are looking for a witch hunt.

There's a program where we live that, during New Year's Eve, all the taxi associations agree the rides from bars to homes are free. Everyone gets home safe, and the taxi associations write off the fares for year-end tax deductions. Everybody benefits; there's no reason not to call; the barkeeps would even make the call for you. They're now thinking of expanding this to more holidays, but the taxi drivers have to earn a living too............

Was at a Super Bowl party with friends and kids - everybody was watching the last several minutes! That was a good game and another great ending! The Manningham catch was the Tyree moment! The Geeeeeeeeeee-Men pwwwwwwwwwwnz the Patriots the last 4 years - offense puts butts on the seats, but defense definitely wins championships (just ask the Crimson Tide too)!
The Giants are making a habit of winning when they're not favored and have to play away from home. Even at the Super Bowl, they were dropping like flies to injury, including their top 2 TEs (thus they stopped throwing to TEs after being effective early in the game). In their last few plays, we thought that if WR Nicks would had stayed in-bounds after the 1st down or if Bradshaw would had sat on the 1-yard line (it was obvious the Patriots weren't really trying to stop him - they were just standing), then the game should be over by now. But in the ending, it was Eli and the Giants WRs who made plays, while Brady and the Patriot receivers were out of sync. Who would've thought that Eli would have more rings than Peyton right now? I think they will be the first QB brothers in the Hall of Fame - their dad must be proud.
Now, on to more important things: who won the Super Bowl ad wars? We're still debating that, hahaha................

As they say: you either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Same in politics: leave early enough to be appreciated, or stay too long that they want to throw you out.

The fighting may stop, but the slaughter will continue. Just because one side can't fight back doesn't mean the other side stops. Just because outsiders can't read about the bloodbath on their news doesn't mean it's not happening.
