“Super Bowl Monday”

Clever title.  Solid concept.  I haven’t read “Super Bowl Monday” yet, but I’m intrigued.  Adam Lazarus has taken the nail-biter that was Super Bowl XXV, and wrapped it in the social-political context of the Gulf War, in January 1991.  Desert Storm.  Whitney Houston’s ‘Star-Spangled Banner’.  Saddam Hussein. Scott Norwood. Wide right.

The title, by the way, refers to when American military personnel – halfway around the world – watched the game – early Monday morning.

Props to Lazarus, 29, who also wrote “Chasing Greatness” – about Johnny Miller’s 1973 US Open victory at Oakmont.   He is the first SMG interviewee to write for the oft-maligned Bleacher Report.  As of today,  for BR, Lazarus has written 589 articles (rank 56), and had 4.12 million article reads (rank 18) and 112 comments (rank 7,534).
