Hey all --

The Day is here, which for different reasons I'm sure we are both so grateful for. It's been a long week of work here in Phoenix, which began with the drama of The Ankle and ended with the Rebirth of Spygate, though there was a bright spot in Andre Tippett's selection to the Hall of Fame yesterday.

For all of you, it's probably been even longer, as the last two weeks have probably seemed never-ending.

At any rate, we are here on the scene at the University of Phoenix Stadium, where the roof is closed, the field is so colorful it looks like it's been redone using Technicolor, and the final pre-game on-field preparations are being made.

Apparently, the grass here -- grown in Alabama -- is the fastest track in the league, which is good news for Randy Moss. Of course, if Moss is faster that means the Giants' defenders are as well.

As we noted earlier in the week, Mike Carey will be the referee today, the first time he's been in charge at a Super Bowl. Carey was also the referee for the Pats-Giants Week 17, and each team was flagged five times in that game.

We will of course be keeping you updated on everything and everything as we get closer to game time.
