Super Bowl MVP?
Lean Left - February 8 2010 09:17:21 AM

For my money, it wasn’t Brees, although he did play very well, especially in the second half. It seems the QB always gets it when there is no obvious standout. But to me, there WAS another obvious standout: Garrett Hartley. Think about it. Early in the game, when the Colts looked ...

It's true. And some of us even care more about the game than the commercials, especially when the game gives us a chance at a rare sighting of Peyton Pouty Face (not so rare tonight though!). Hell, at the Super Bowl party I went to last year, the girls were the ones watching the game while the guy...
