Q: A popular topic seems to be if Peyton Manning is the greatest ever. Your take?
Answered 02/03/10 14:00:13 by Greg Cote
A: Abby, I say yes, and if he wins a second Super Bowl ring Sunday, I think yes might grow into a consensus. Hard to argue with his statistical resume' or the four league MVP awards.Submitted by mike from miami
Q: Who was the biggest name at the Media party you saw last night?
Answered 02/03/10 13:56:40 by Greg Cote
A: Mike, probably Ron Magill of Metrozoo. Seriously, the media party is geared to actual working journalists, so you don't see ex-players or ESPNies. Which is why the party is popular with actual working journalists.Submitted by Dan Carpenter from Miami
Q: Did you see me kicking in the Pro Bowl?? I made a name for the DOlphins and kept the kicking away form OchoCinco!!
Answered 02/03/10 13:53:47 by Greg Cote
A: Dan, yes I was swelling with pride to see you and Yeremiah Bell, our two replacement Dolphins, competing in the Faux Bowl!Submitted by Walter K. from Metarie, LA
Q: What is your info down there on whether Dwight Freeney will play?
Answered 02/03/10 13:49:49 by Greg Cote
A: Walter, I'll cover the Super Bowl wearing nothing but a Speedo and a Lincoln hat if Freeney does not play. Think he might be limited or not quite himself, but definitely think he'll play.Submitted by Benjamin D. from Miami Shores
Q: I know Pope has covered all the super Bowls. How many is this for you?
Answered 02/03/10 13:45:05 by Greg Cote
A: Benjamin, I don't keep track but I just scanned the list of them all and my best guess is that this is my 21st.Submitted by Paul from Miami
Q: Hi Greg: Do you think that there is a chance P. Riley will pull the plug on his protege E.S. this season, ala Stan VG in the past, or will he be content to let E.S. finish the season and take the blame for this supremely mediocre season? What about next year, will he consider stepping in and/or replacing him?
Answered 02/03/10 13:39:30 by Greg Cote
A: Paul, I sure would not see that happening this season. But after this season or before next season? I think it is possible. I dont think Riley would do that to Spoelstra on his own. But if behind the scenes Wade pushed for the change as a contingency to re-signing, I think it could happen.Submitted by OC Dolphin from SOCA
Q: Good afternoon, Greg. Is it safe to assume that your Random Evidence blog was temporarily moved off the main e-sports page due Super Bowl week, and will return afterwards? Or are you swimming with the fishes?
Answered 02/03/10 13:37:11 by Greg Cote
A: Hi OC. Yeah they redesigned the entire online sports homepage for Super Bowl Week. Hope I'll be back up in the familiar upp-eleft corner starting next week. Meantime, our Random Evidence blog is turned into a daily Super Blog all week, hopefully worth the effort for people to find it.Submitted by Sandy Cote Lusona from Canaan, NH
Q: Hey Greg! I wanted to be the first on your show today. :) Did I win anything? LOL Super Bowl Sunday! Tell us what it means to you. Wish I could come down to see the game, but the snowman is keeping me home. BTW, Linda Cote Watkins says to say hi to you.
Answered 02/03/10 13:32:18 by Greg Cote
A: Hi Sandy! (My cousin). What does the Super Bowl mean to me? Mostly work, unfortunately. Easier for me when some other city is hosting, believe me.Submitted by Greg Cote from Cyberspace USA
Q: Halftime of today's chat. The Who about the perform. Only Daltrey and Townshend from the original band. The Semi-Who about to perform.

A: Back in 14 seconds.Submitted by Wholly Cow from Netherlands
Q: Dave Barry better watch out. Your article on the Dullfins being a QB away from the SB puts you in contention for fantasy writing that Dave normally owns. Face it the Dullfins became just another team when Joe Robbie sold them.
Answered 02/03/10 13:25:58 by Greg Cote
A: Wholly, you mean the Tuesday column on Drew Brees and how he cold-a been a Dolphin. No guarantee, for sure, but Miami sure would be closer to Super Bowl status with him than without him. QB is the only position in the NFL where the right guy CAN make all the difference.Submitted by Chris C. from Miami Lakes, FL
Q: Sing us a song, you're the Pianoman....
Answered 02/03/10 13:21:47 by Greg Cote
A: Chris, you a funny man! Or woman as the case may be. I think of Chris as a he name but plenty of shes including Pat Riley's wife are Chris, too. And Chris Evert, of course. As for sing us a song, The Singing Sportswriter is not dead but evidently is missing (and astonishingly missed...)Submitted by MarlinsFan1 from Plantation,FL
Q: so greg, when do you think is the earliest that mike stanton will make an impact?
Answered 02/03/10 13:19:33 by Greg Cote
A: MarlinsFan, Stanton seems like a future star for sure, but not this year I don't think. He is only 20. Cameron Maybin reminds us some guys need another year or two. With Stanton I'd say his impact could coincide with the new stadium opening in 2012.Submitted by John Doe from Davie,FL
Q: so greg, whats ur prediction of the score on sunday?
Answered 02/03/10 13:16:23 by Greg Cote
A: John Doe. There must be people on Earth actually named that, right? I'd say the score will be, oh, ah, umm, how aout 31-27? I'll let you know who wins in Friday's paper.Submitted by Germario from Deltona, Fl
Q: Hey Greg love your blog and articles. They are always entertaining reads during lunch time. Anyway my question is based off the fact that Crowder joined Porter in bashing the Phins yesterday, is he as good as gone with Porter? Thanks.
Answered 02/03/10 13:15:01 by Greg Cote
A: Germario, thanks a lot. Crowder on his local radio show gave Porter a forum to bash and said some pro-Joey stuff but didn't really slam the club himself, at least not directly. Don't think CRowder will be in trouble for that. But Crowder is very much a player on thin ice, I think. His lack of impact plays make him increasingly seem like a guy who's just going to be OK, not special.
