I am heading to Tampa for the weekend to experience Gasparilla for the first time. While everyone has been complaining about the snow, it has been absolutely beautiful down here in South Florida. Hate to rub it in, but it feels real good. Here are a couple of clips (Part 1/Part 2) from last weekend’s Beyond the Game (a West Palm Beach CBS show that I have been on quite a bit lately). I absolutely love the experience of being on-air. I will be posting a Super Bowl Party Primer on Monday, so if you are heading to Dallas, make sure to swing by to check it out next week. I have been tweeting a lot lately. Follow me – @Darren_Heitner – if you would like. Here are some stories I missed over the past week:
