Finally, a reason to watch!

SPORTING GOODS

OK, that's not true considering I even watched every second of the putrid Bucs vs. Raiders Super Bowl, but I found this interesting, from patriots.com:

Tom Brady will take part in the coin toss at Super Bowl XL. He will become the first active player to participate in a Super Bowl coin toss.

Now, if I can only time missing all the pre-game crap (maybe this year they'll have a salute to auto-workers!), but still catch the coin toss. And now, for my prediction, that I thought about for at least 35 seconds:

Steelers 27, Seahawks 24
