Brilliant Piece from Frank Deford
 

[QUOTE]
The Super Bowl has grown so big that we could think of only one man to cover it: [B]William Shakespeare[/B]. The Bard was in Arizona when the two teams met the media yesterday and filed this exclusive play.
Act One begins as a mob of sports journalists enter the field at The University of Phoenix Stadium. A FETCHING SIDELINE REPORTER of the Duchy of Fox steps forward.

Pretty good piece of writing.

I hadn't heard about that. What a strong family the Andruzzi's are. Wow. So glad to hear Joe has made a recovery. Cancer is so scary. My mom is a survivor of breast cancer. I'll never forget the day she was diagnosed. I've never been so scared or felt so helpless. Stories like Joe Andruzzi's really put into perspective all the things we take for granted on a daily basis.
