Superbowl Sunday: The most male day in the American year. Football jerseys, buffalo wings, chili, nachos, indigestion, smashing, bashing, neck braces, etc. Yes, you couldn't possibly get anymore uber-male than Superbowl Sunday.
Which is why I found it particularly awesome that PBS and Masterpiece Theater put up Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility" opposite the testosterone fest. So, while the men are off chest-bumping with their posse, the ladies can indulge in the most feminine of female entertainments -- romance a la Georgian England. For, there really is no game more entertaining than the one played between men and women for love and money.
