\ \ ) SUPER BowL XXXVII : ~ l Trying to focus on football ~\ \ s + Gruden wants focus on the game, not his history

Associated Press

SAN DIEGO Squinting into the sunlight, glaring down at the reporters, Jon Gruden did his best to be a good sport. It wasn't easy. "You guys are killing me," the Tampa Bay coach said when the 50th or 100th question floated his way. With the Super Bowl approaching, Gruden only wants the story of his strange breakup with his former employee and upcoming opponent, Al Davis and the Oakland Raiders, to disappear into the "rearview mir­ ror." But rearview mirror stories like Gruden's are what \ s \ the Super Bowl is all about. And days like Tuesday - ' I Media Day at the biggest single sporting event in America- are what tales like Gruden's are made for. ; l "I don't try to relive the whole thing," Gruden said. "Sometimes, change is inevitable. Things have gone .I \ well since then. Hopefully, we can all continue to have 'l a nice life." \ Indeed, they are all having a nice life. Gruden, the 39-year-old wondercoach, got a raise and expense-paid move to the place where he spent his childhood, Tampa, Fla., to coach the team he always adored, the Buccaneers. Davis got a king's ransom by NFL standards- two first-round draft choices and two seconds, plus $8 mil­ lion in exchange for a guy who will never play a do\\n. Bill Callahan got Gruden's old job. The whole gang made it to the Super Bowl - Davis and Oakland for the first time in 19 seasons and the Bucs for the first time ever. And the rest of the football world? They got Gruden Bowl I, possibly the most intriguing Super Bowl soap opera since Broncos coaches of the Spons Chrome Photo present and past, Mike Shanahan and Dan Reeves, Allsport Photo John Gruden dressed In the colors of his current team, aired their dirty laundry before the Denver-Atlanta John Gruden will face his former team, the Oakland the Tampa Bay Bucs.
