Super Brawl? Pats and Cats lack claws

If this Super Bowl week proved anything, it’s that the Northeast won’t be hosting the big game until global warming takes it up a notch. The domes and US hotspots are in firm control of the game to the extent that I’m waiting for St. Thomas to be awarded the 2009 prize.
