Every year at the Super Bowl, the host city puts on a party for the credentialed members of the media.

If you think about what the average "sports media member" looks like, you have an idea of how this one turns out. Lots of sweaters from the '80s, several pairs of tapered jeans, and millions of weirdly timed high fives.

Basically, a sausage party with some really foul-tasting sausage. That said, it's open bar, incredibly well catered, and filled with all sorts of enthusiasm and entertainment.

Last year's one in Detroit was marked by FOXSports.com video guru Nick Neves and me playing an entire game of Madden 06, while seated in leather lounge chairs, eating steak skewers, and listening to the soothing sounds of an Earth, Wind, and Fire cover band. Surely, Miami couldn't top that!

I was looking forward to the media party all day, but had to get some grub first. Neves, Christian Anderson, and Charissa Thompson joined my foil -- dueling FOXSports.com Super Bowl blogger, Adam Schein -- and myself for a nice sit down dinner on Ocean Drive.  

I picked Schein's brain like a surgeon. And the surgeon analogy is quite appropriate. It turns out that the man so many millions of Americans turn to for inside information from our country's most rugged, most macho, most masculine sport -- is a die-hard fan of Grey's Anatomy.  

Barf.  

Yep, he loves the show every ex-girlfriend in America cuddles up to on Thursday nights. McDreamy, the theme song, even the girl from Arli$$ -- Adam Schein eats it all up. Or in his terms, "It's good stuff!" (said in Schein voice).

All this was very unsettling to me. Hearing the man I turn to every afternoon on SIRIUS for tips about blitz packages and Cover 2's rave about last week's episode and what "Izzy" did -- well, let's just say the bedroom scene in "The Crying Game" surprised me less.   In between all the chick flick hospital drama chatter, we got down to business and spoke about the game.

Schein's holding out on a pick until his video for the site goes up later this week. But I think I like the Bears.

I'll why explain in my column going up on FOXSports.com later today.
