The Super Bowl is less than a week away, and the anticipation couldn't be any thicker. As the eyes of the world descend on New York, experts are predicting the game to smash the all-time television ratings record, thanks to over a dozen of the most intriguing story lines in recent memory. How will the cold weather affect Peyton Manning? Will Bruno Mars somehow top Beyoncé's epic halftime performance? What on earth will Richard Sherman say next?
Just in case that's not enough to get you excited, the groundbreaking digital music service Rdio has released dueling playlists that will soundtrack the lead up to Sunday.
