Today is Super Bowl XLVI, and we have our game face on. But before we get back into game coverage, let’s take a quick break and go off the field. Over the past two days, we attended parties hosted by ESPN, Maxim, and Leather and Laces.

Super Bowl XLVI preview and pick
EA Sports this week, using Madden 2012, came out with its simulation for the Super Bowl. Other than a thinly veiled attempted at advertising, I don’t know why they do this. It’s not like this is something that literally any person can’t do. I can go to my couch right now, turn on my Play Station and spend 20 minutes doing this myself.

BSO Interview: Warrick Dunn Talks Crown Royal Heroes Project, Cowboys, Forte & More
My earliest memory of Warrick Dunn is him running all over Miami while at Florida State.
That is also the first time I heard about Dunn’s mother a police officer who was murdered in the line of duty. From that point on I rooted for Dunn to succeed and he didn’t disappoint.
He had a very good NFL career, while also doing work in the community not because he wanted the...
