Heard on the STREET
Body
Tom Kelner, Alpine: Yes, I did. It was a great game. I’m glad L.A. won because Matthew Stafford has always been a great quarterback, and he was stuck in Detroit for 13 years and couldn’t get anywhere. I thought he finally deserved to really get there, and win it, and have the ring. I think Joe Burrow and Cincinnati are a great team- I hope they come back and win it again in the future.
