Super Bowl XLIII


With two weeks until Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa Bay, we will take a daily look at the factors that will affect the game.

#1 Super Bowl Parties

The Super Bowl city turns into one big party in the week leading up to the game. Corporations take "business" trips, fans of the participating teams travel to be a part of the celebration, and celebrities arrive to be seen.

In the past several players have been caught up in the nonsense around the Super Bowl. Most notably are Eugene Robinson of the Atlanta Falcons who was caught soliciting a prostitute the night before the game and Raiders center Barret Robbins who took off to Tijuana before the game and never came back. So who will be this year's Eugene Robinson and how will it affect their team?

From the Cardinals we can rule out Kurt Warner, but after his hissy fit on the sidelines Sunday maybe Anquan Boldin is the player that will let out a little steam. Another potential distraction for the Cards could be Edge James. He is going back to Florida, where he will be among family and friends and you know he is gangsta with that grill for teeth!

For the Steelers, I could see WR Linus Sweed who was almost the goat over the weekend after that dropped touchdown pass in the second quarter, he is a rookie who played at the University of Texas and therefore he might be down for attending one of those "rap" concerts that the likes of Diddy is throwing during the week. The other obvious selection on the Steelers is kicker Jeff Reed. The man dyed his hair platinum blond because the Steelers made the playoffs and he is KICKER! They are weird, trust me.

  1. Nice drunk shot of Big Ben...always nice to see the pro athletes blasted.
    Unfortunately, I don't think Jiri Tlusty can use booze as an excuse for his full frontals that came out last year.

  2. I was going to use the drunk and naked shots of the kicker - Jeff Reed, but this is a family blog after all.
