A hand full of Super Bowl XL tickets, with a street-value close to $250,000, will be given to injured Marines who served in operations Enduring Freedom or Iraqi Freedom who are now recovering in hospitals or working in the National Capitol Region. The tickets were donated by the Cleveland Browns.

As a total football fanatic; any game, any team, anytime, anywhere...I salute them!
We'll be watching this weekend at a friend's par-tay, but I'll be decked out in my Green Bay Packer gear just for fun.
Dad waited 30 years for the first two wins, I waited 30 years for the third...and my son will probably be 30 before we win it again. *Rolleyes*
Now THAT, my FRiend, is dedication. Or stupidity...it's a fine line, LOL!

Good for the Cleveland Browns, better for the Marines. Hope someone steps up for the other services. BTW, the hankie alert was where?

God bless them.
I'm sure their combat experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan have prepared them well for the streets of Detroit ;)
