The Hub Crawl 2/5: Pats cut player on eve of Super Bowl

Kid ‘N Play: The guy with the high flat-top? He’s gone. The Patriots released WR Tiquan Underwood Saturday … a seemingly heartless move. According to reports, however, Underwood’s release had nothing to do with discipline issues. This move could signal an opportunity for Chad Ochocinco to finally come through.

High standards: CSNBC business reporter Darren Rovell was a hit on Twitter last night as he criticized the “talent” at the Playboy bunny party at the Bud Light hotel.

“Playboy not having gorgeous Playmates at its Super Bowl party does effect a brand that is already faltering #reality,” Rovell tweeted.

Tuna grilled: Bill Parcells will not be a part of the NFL Hall of Fame’s Class of 2012. While in New England, Parcells’ favorite player was “Boy Wonder” Curtis Martin. Martin got in last night, which the Big Tuna might actually have mixed feelings about.

When Martin had his first 100-yard game, Parcells had one of his typical snide remarks to the media: “Don’t go putting him in Canton yet.”
