(LAS VEGAS) - WHO DAT....The Super Bowl (or the BIG GAME as we refer to things here in Vegas) turned out to actually be a super game, with two teams at their finest, playing for all the marbles. (NOTE: Yes, a New England Patriots fan, I have had to endure the playoff season after watching the Pats disintegrate before my eyes, so I really didn't have a team in the race this year.)

Not many gave the Saints a chance to beat the Colts, saying that Peyton Manning would be the MVP and prevail over the Aints.

I said the Saints would win. I took a lot of grief for that over the past few days, but I was prepared for that. And in the end, it was Drew Brees and the New Orlean Saints who proved me right, and made a lot of bettors angry as there was so much more money placed on the Colts to win, there are a lot of disgruntled players out there (both on and off the field) who are licking their wounds today.

So, congrats to the Saints and the City of New Orleans, along with the MVP Drew Brees, for a well-played, focused, intense game. It was great to see Brees parading around the field after the game with his little son in his arms wondering what the heck was going on, as confetti and cheers filled the air in Miami as Saints fans screamed and danced, in preparation for the biggest Mardi Gras celebration in the history of that fine, recovering city.

Should be a massive party that started yesterday and will continue throughout the month, heck, it will no doubt continue right up until the next football season begins, when the Saints go at it again and attempt to do the near impossible - repeat...not if the Pats have a say in things.

RECENTLY...

What a long strange trip its been...

After a successful tour of New England, including 8 shows in 10 days, I returned home to find I was near collapse from what I thought was simply exhaustion from too much partying with the gang in Worcester...

Turns out I was having serious issues internally, and after a visit to Spring Valley Hospital, was admitted for a major surgery to remove a large "mass" that was discovered growing in my body...

Two weeks later, and minus 18 inches of my colon, I came home to recover from the whole episode, and now feeling chipper, I am ready to tackle anything that 2010 can throw my way.

Many thanks for all the heartfelt cards, emails and phone calls from so many concerned friends...all is well now, and I expect to be back to 100% soon.

Magically yours,

Steve
