Super Bowl Blogdome: 'My Answer To Everything Is Just Go Suck On It'
What they're saying about Super Bowl XLI, the morning after ......

Perhaps He Was Looking Forward Too Much To Next New Years Eve
We know this has been beaten into the ground by now, but really do consider it instructive to think of not only of the Indianapolis Colts as the St. Louis Cardinals, but also the Chicago Bears as the Detroit Tigers. In the former example, a team that had earned much recent success finally won a cham...

Your Uninspiring Super Bowl Champion Colts
In one of the duller, more sloppy Super Bowls we can remember — it was kind of the equivalent of this year's World Series, actually — the Indianapolis Colts have won the NFL Championship. We're back from our labors — and labors they were indeed — at CBS and happy to back here. Congratulations, India...

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: 4th Quarter
- Hey, don't forget the Pro Bowl is this Saturday at 6:00 on CBS. Mark your calendars. And Will wanted me to tell you that he's asked for the opportunity to glog that one live on CBS SportsLine. We'll let you know if that happens....

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: 3rd Quarter
- We're underway... the Colts take the kickoff, and Terrence Wilkins dances and steps it out across the 35-yard-line. And yeah, it's been exciting and entertaining, but... I really wouldn't mind seeing a team keep the ball for more than a couple of minutes at a time in this half....

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: Halftime
- Liveblogging a halftime show is a first for me. I'm sticking here with Prince, but if anyone has any pictures of the Lingerie Bowl that they feel like they should share with the group, feel free: [email protected]....

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: 2nd Quarter
- 14-6 Bears as we start the 2nd quarter, and if you like turnovers, this is your game. The winner of this game will be the team that is better at handling slippery balls....

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: 1st Quarter
- Well, that didn't take long... Devin Hester, 92 yards, endzone. Though I would like to mention one thing... that looked awfully familiar to Ted Ginn. And he didn't really enjoy the rest of his evening after that happened. But anyway... wow. That's how you start a Super Bowl....

Super Bowl XLI Liveblog: Pregame
- Welcome everyone to one of approximately 8,829 Super Bowl liveblogs. MJD's Super Bowl party consists of MJD, 80 ounces of malt liquor, and his new dog Raleigh, who has yet to learn the difference between a carpet and a toilet. Given the beverages, the animal, his problems, and the potential for 3 ...

Super Bowl Pants Party: Bears Vs. Colts
You know, this football season has been so much fun that we really are sad to see it end. But, alas, it has to, and there's an actual game Sunday, if you can believe it. Will we have another year of mocking Peyton Manning for choking? Because we'd almost be sad if we couldn't do that anymore. Awfull...

What This Means For Us: The Chicago Bears
Way back in August, we asked various writers to preview their favorite NFL teams as the season approached. (We think the most famous was James Frey's "preview" of the Cleveland Browns.)...

Deconstructing Bear Vs. Colt
A shocking result in Tuesday's episode of Bear vs. Colt . With the score tied at two wins apiece, neither of them won! In a move that the real Indianapolis Colts would do well to study and reflect upon (we have no trouble at all imagining Peyton Manning choking in similar fashion), Colt seems to hav...

He's Probably Been Waiting Outside The Studio For Weeks
We had a few people email us yesterday, mostly saying a variation on the following: "So I'm home with the flu, and it's possible that I'm just hallucinating, but I think I just saw A.J. Pierzynski as a bouncer on the 'Jerry Springer Show.' Can that be possible?"...

Somebody's Gonna End Up With A Rather Lousy Highlight Video
Over at The NFL Shop, you don't have to sift through a week of Super Bowl overexposure. They've not only decided who won, they've even put out the championship DVD....

Jay Mariotti Was On To Lovie Smith From The Beginning
We haven't made fun of Jay Mariotti for a while, so it's probably time. Good to shake off the rust sometimes....

I Think It's Jim Sorgi In The Colt Costume
Bear vs. Colt is an inspired bit of Super Bowl silliness. Every day between now and the Super Bowl, they post a new video with a Bear vs. Colt battle, with a guy in a bear costume going toe to toe in some manner against a guy in a colt costume....

A Happy Ending For That EBay Bears Lady
You may recall the attractive Bears fan who attempted to auction herself off on EBay in return for a Super Bowl ticket last week. The bidding went up to 99 bazillion dollars and was then killed by EBay, only for her to try again, and again have the auction pulled....

Why You Shouldn't Randomly Promise Tickets To Strangers
When your team makes the Super Bowl, sometimes some promises you've made in the past come back to haunt you. That's what happened to Bears safety Chris Harris, who was on public access earlier this year and found himself in a situation where his mouth was writing checks his ticket stash couldn't cas...

William Perry, Keeping Busy (And Incognito!)
In case you were wondering what William "The Refrigerator" Perry was up to these days, now that the offers to box Manute Bol have dried up, here's one of his main promotional opportunities: Big Camo, "the world's BEST outlet for HARD or IMPOSSIBLE to find BIG and TALL camouflage hunting clothes, acc...
