   I lost my ass in the SB, maybe it is a lesson not to bet on woke football. Old habits die hard.

   I was watching the game in a bar last night, but didn’t see the confrontation between Mr. Swift and The Walrus. Assuming it is acceptable to discuss what I only saw on replay, that was a bad look for Mr. Swift.

   Woke vs woke…woker usually wins…

   Super Bowl LVIII, held in Las Vegas this year, is a nightmare for climate scientists and activists. From jet travel to water use, the game at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, will create a carbon footprint equal to the annual one of hundreds if not thousands of average Americans.

   The first effect is energy consumption. Electricity is used to power much of Allegiant Stadium and the businesses near it that will benefit from commercial activity. This ranges from hotels to restaurants to parking areas. It also affects energy consumption by viewers who watch on electricity-powered TVs. OwlESG estimates that “In fact, watching the Super Bowl results in the consumption of over 11 million kilowatt-hours of energy. This amount is comparable to the energy needed to power three entire cities just from the TVs tuned in to watch the game.”

   The carbon emissions from flights in and out of Las Vegas airports are also considerable. That included team planes, additional commercial flights, and private jet travel. An analysis of private jets alone shows that about 1,000 will take people to and from the four Las Vegas area airports. Taylor Swift’s private flight from Tokyo, where she is performing, to the game and back to Tokyo will equal the average annual carbon footprint of 14 Americans.

   The author of the piece admits “the businesses near it that will benefit from commercial activity. This ranges from hotels to restaurants to parking areas.”

   Horrors! Restaurants and hotels benefiting from more business.

   Don’t bet against Mahomes in the Super Bowl.”

   You could have told me this yesterday.

   Taylor Swift the first woman to ever win a SB? Liberals think so.
