Two teams bludgeon their way through a mud- and blood-spattered season to face each other on the biggest stage in the world for one game, winner-take-all. The Super Bowl is, hands-down, the greatest single event in sports. Except when it sucks. We’ve been blessed in the last decade of parity with fantastic games, whether it […]

We have reached the point in the pre-Super Bowl wind cycle where everyone arrives in the host city and begins to take stock of it.

For the casual observer, the Senior Bowl is about as meaningful as the NFL Pro Bowl, but more anonymous. But for the growing legion of draft-obsessed scouts, it’s a week-long getaway from the cold in Mobile, Alabama, and a chance to see the cream of the senior class in person. When you’ve spent hours staring […]
