| Comments (3)

green-mms-character.gifI agree with Ben Kunz who says Mars, the maker of M&Ms, is brilliant.

Here's everything you want to know about Green M&M's and some reasons you might want to go green with your favorite candy this year.

Super Bowl Recipes: The BEST Buffalo Wings & One-of-a-Kind Cocktails Just For Football Fans

| Comments (0)

buffalo-wings-and-celery.jpg The following recipe for Buffalo Wings was originally posted February 1, 2006 on Nick Bakay's Xtra Large Blog at Superbowl.com.

Actor/writer/comedian Nick Bakay, whose 'Manly House of Football' segments can be seen regularly on NFL Network, will be a major voice on Superbowl.com throughout the week."

Since it doesn't look like they're preserving any archives of his stuff, I fear that this great recipe will vanish into thin air in a couple days. Therefore, today's post is in honor of Nick Bakay and his one-of-a-kind "original" Buffalo Wings recipe.

And, while you're homemade buffalo wings are sure to be a hit... your guests will also need something wash 'em down with. The "football fan cocktails" which follow are to die for.

Enjoy!
