Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band is scheduled to perform for Super Bowl fans in 2009. The half-time show will take place during the next Super Bowl which will be held in Tampa, Florida on February 1, 2008.
This will be The Boss’ first time performing during football’s biggest event. Although he’s been known to stay on stage for hours after a concert’s scheduled ending time, for the Super Bowl, he’ll probably only have time for three or four songs.

After weeks of negotiations, Favre is trading in his Green Bay uniform for one from the Jets.

Together with brother Kurt, Kyle Busch has helped the past four consecutive race wins go to the Busch family. What a streak! Busch most recently won the LifeLock 400 Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland on Saturday. This race gives Busch his fourteenth Nascar win of the season.
An engine failure for David Gilliland forced a caution period that allowed Kyle to get ahead of Jimmie Johnson who had been in the lead.
“Without that caution the race was over,” said Busch. “I mean, just judging by what was in front of me and what I knew at that given point, the race was over. Jimmie was going to lead us to that checkered flag without that caution. It kind of changed everything. On that restart I was doing whatever I could to get back by him. The car stuck on the outside and I just drove it for all that it was worth.”
