Monday After Super Bowl a Holiday?

Apparently someone thinks their Super Bowl hangover deserves a national holiday. It is hard to fathom that someone, and apparently a bunch of other people, thinks that they should get the Monday after the Super Bowl off by proposing it to be a national holiday. This is so moronic to me that these people feel that they should get a paid day off because of a football game.

I do not understand why the Super Bowl is not moved to Saturday. Super Bowl Saturday has the same ring as Super Bowl Sunday. It certainly would not hurt ratings, it might actually help them. Having the game on Saturday also gives everyone Sunday to collect themselves, clean up after the party, not worry about getting home to go to work the next morning. A few friends and I have talked about this because we would like to watch the game together but can’t because of the travel involved.

So let’s get the ball rolling to make it Super Bowl Saturday.
