Bush's bowl wear to help Haiti
By SUN WIRE SERVICES
MIAMI -- If you like what Reggie Bush was wearing at Sunday's Super Bowl, get to your computer and get your credit card out. You could buy it. Bush plans to auction several of his game-worn Super Bowl items on eBay, with all proceeds going to Mercy Corps and their work aiding Haitians whose lives were devastated in the series of earthquakes there last month. "The devastation in Haiti is stunning," Bush said, adding that he's trying to "do my part to help the people of Haiti." Dallas gets ready MIAMI -- At least 70 members of the North Texas Super Bowl Host Committee, which gets its turn at the NFL title game on Feb. 6, 2011, spent parts of the past two weeks in South Florida taking notes on how Miami handles the big game. Sunday's was the 10th Super Bowl in South Florida. Next year's will be the first in the Dallas area. An honourable man ... MIAMI -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell revealed Sunday that Brian Waters of the Kansas City Chiefs was this season's winner of the Walter Payton Man of the Year award. Goodell made the announcement shortly before kickoff of the Super Bowl, flanked by Payton's children, Brittany Payton and former CFL running back Jarrett Payton. The Man of the Year award has been issued since 1970. Honour lacking? Former NFL star Warren Sapp was released from jail Sunday on $1,500 US bond, a day after being arrested for allegedly choking a woman in his hotel room. The NFL Network has pulled Sapp, an analyst, off the air until it investigates the matter ... Officials in Davie, Fla., say Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Tony McDaniel is out of jail after being arrested and accused of domestic violence. He was released Sunday on $3,500 bond. |
