What's with the Barack (or is it Barry?) Obama interview?
ReplyDeleteThey've always had that type of interview before the Super Bowl.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot a special two-hour SportsNation with Beadle and Cowdouchebag on The Deuce from 10 AM to noon and repeated afterward...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but broadcasting a jail-house interview with Plaxico Burress as part of a buildup to the Super Bowl isn't really all that appropriate....
ReplyDeletethat game must have been the fatest Super Bowl ever...
ReplyDeleteI thought Nantz and Simms called a very strong game tonight.
And a great job by the referees.
As a life-long...I was there from game 1 to last night...suffering Saints fan, all I can say is "WE DAT!" It feels sooooooooo good...
