Morgan Freeman
I found it difficult to rank Morgan Freeman within my system b/c he's seldom a lead character. I gave him 3 pts each for being the among the leads in 2 of my favorite all-time movies. His role in some of the 'good' movies is sometimes quite minor. In the end, he's among the leaders.

Rules I've Made Up Along The Way:
1. No animated/computerized/cartoon voice acting stuff counts 2. The actor must have played a major role in the movie, not some two minute cameo. 3. I had to have seen over 90% of the movie UNLESS it was so bad that I turned it off. 4. I must have seen them in at least seven movies that fit rules 1-3.

Super Bowl
Another very entertaining Super Bowl (though I missed much of the 1st & 3rd quarters). Here are my general thoughts...
2 exciting Super Bowls in a row
100 yard INT return the key play
Arizona actually outplayed them imo
Big Ben is awesome at buying time
Fitzgerald is the best WR in the NFL
It really is a game of inches
