Super Bowl update, Monday edition
It's about to get cold as shit! Come back in five years, NFL! Pleeeeeaaassssssseeeeee!
*****
Another bad sign: The Ticket's Dunham & Miller show disintegrated live from media row this morning for about seven minutes. Seriously. Dallas is awesome!
****
Disjointed and forced newspaper column of the day: From Kevin Sherrington, who is attempting to communicate something. I just don't know what.
****
Bill Clinton is not coming to the Super Bowl.

The absolute worst media member in Dallas-Fort Worth is Steve Blow. Whilst the schools and city are in utter turmoil, he writes a column about the whole "North Texas" distinction that is allegedly plaguing the Super Bowl.
Guess what? No one cares. You couldn't say "Dallas" or "Fort Worth" because that's not where the game is. Jerry Jones wanted to build that stadium in any other city and Dallas had every opportunity to get it in their city limits. They shit the bed. Arlington pounced on it. Let's move along.

I hate to disappoint everyone, but no one 35 years or younger care about the Pittsburgh Steelers. Thusly, a good majority of Dallas Cowboys fans care that the Steelers could win a Super Bowl in Dallas. It doesn't matter. People my age don't remember those Steelers-Cowboys Super Bowls. Terry Bradshaw is the bald guy on the pre-game show on FOX.
What the Cowboys should know is that 30-year-old Cowboys fans care a lot that the Steelers seem to win and win a lot. All their draft picks work. Their ownership is stable. Their GM is virtually unknown and he is nothing but gold.
