Live-Blog starts tonight and two other live-blogs have been planned for the week as well. Tomorrow the Sugar Bowl will be done by Chris at Run Up The Score and our friend C. from Signal to Noise is doing the Chiefs/Indy game this Saturday. His quote, "I have no particular qualifications outside of having a vicious hate directed at both teams as a Bronco fan, and I figure this will be half the fun." Oh it will!

See you tonight for the Orange Bowl....unless someone really wants to take it off my hands....just kidding.

Update: Forgot to mention that I will be switching back and forth over to Iverson's slaughtering of the Sixers at 9pm as well.
