Clearing Up The Super Bowl Flap

From National Review (The Tank):

Thanks to Mike Florio at ProFootballTalk.com for getting to the bottom of the flap over the percieved change in accomodations for the Color Guard at the Super Bowl this year—a flap which yours truly contributed to. Bottom line: Nothing has changed from previous years.

My Comment: Bottom line ..... it was a big hullabaloo over nothing. But on the bright side, the 12 member color guard will be now permitted to stay in the stadium and see the game.

And oh yeah ..... cough cough ..... GO STEELERS GO!!!!
