HIS SUPER BOWL MVP TROPHY Today [April 12] is my first day
taking it out of the case. I've been traveling, so this is my
first full day at home near Foxboro. Not a bad piece of

106 & PARK. I went on Jay Leno--that was surreal. But my
favorite was Regis and Kelly. A guy [Rob Sarofeen] was getting
married on the show, and he was a big Patriots fan, so they
asked me to come on to surprise him. He was in a wheelchair,
paralyzed from a diving accident. We shocked him. I didn't stay
for the whole shebang because it was the bride's day. I didn't
want to take away from that.  ON HIS SUPER BOWL
