Tuesday, 13 July 2010

He was 80 and lived in Tampa, Fla. The Yankees announced the death without giving a cause.

Few expected much from this Super Bowl, but it ended up being one of the best ever with a thrilling end to the first half and a spectacular end to the game with the Steelers winning 27-23 in the final seconds. For his money, Santonio Holmes, who caught the game-winning touchdown pass and finished with 9 catches for 131 yards and a score, says it was the best Super Bowl ever.
