Sunnyside Conservatory Grand Reopening, December 5
This coming Sunday, a group of American football players called the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals will come together to have a sporting match entitled Superbowl XLIII. If you will allow SFist to jinx the odds this year, our money is on the team with the friendliest players who know that there is no "i" in "team."
But our eyes will be on the annual Puppy Bowl. The Puppy Bowl will have you shrieking with sheer delight like a little boy. What is it, you ask? Well, Puppy Bowl V, showing on the Discovery Channel concurrently with that other sporting match, is an annual canine competition featuring "a new cast of pups take[ing] the field for another year of dogged defense, puppy penalties and fido first downs." Basically, it's a gaggle of adorable puppies on a makeshift football field going after a chew toy. And this year, every puppy featured in is recruited from an animals shelter, so "these pooches are free agents looking for a good home."
And don't forget about Kitten Halftime.

Fuck this shit in the goat-ass. Srsly. Worse than TV20 or KICU36's "Lucy Bowl." Can't these stupid Program Directors find something not sports-oriented (or, God-forbid, actually entertaining) to run during the Super Bowl? This may be what finally convinces me that the local stations just do not like TV.
It actually is entertaining, and I speak as someone who loathes all sports (except equestrian events. Me want pony). They're cute little puppies, for god's sake!
This is on Animal Planet, not Discovery Channel.
And manys, c'mon. It's ANIMAL PLANET. Not a local station.
I've watched Puppy Bowl for the past few years, and it's way more entertaining than anything else on at that time! The puppies (and kittens at half-time) romp around, splash in the water bowls (which are fitted with cameras!), and play. Plus, AP is encouraging adoption of shelter animals. Bring on the cute, cuddly animals. I'm ready. Woof!
Ah, my mistake. I agree that Animal Planet has every right to indulge the crazy cat (and dog) people among us. My cranky indignance over the quality of local TV still stands, though!
That little beagle has a lot of raw potential and the physical tools to be a shutdown force on defense, but I think he made a mistake coming out of college a year early.
