Leading up to the 2012 Super Bowl XLVI (46) between the New York Giants and New England Patriots, we'll be taking a look at Super Bowl proposition betting, or more specifically, the fun or crazy Super Bowl 46 (XLVI) prop bets that you hear so much about. That includes props on the Super Bowl coin toss, Super Bowl halftime show, Super Bowl National Anthem, Super Bowl Gatorade Shower dump and much more.

What should we do?
Should we admit that we've made mistakes? Should we remind you that we've done this before? Should we ignore the other professional sports in action Sunday just because its the Super Bowl?
What should we do?
Well, LeBron James and other like-minded readers looking for our answer on how to handle the rest of the sports docket on Super Bowl Sunday, it's simple. Combine them!
There are two NBA games on tap for Sunday, February 5th, but out of respect for some other event goign on later that day, both games will occur in the early afternoon and be done by kickoff of the Super Bowl. Still, that gives us two games to work with in the NBA for some good ole fashioned cross-sport betting.
Last year, we hit on our Black Griffin prop going about against the Green Bay Packers offense, and we look forward to the opportunity to take LeBron James' point total over the Patriots offense total or Eli Manning completions or Rob Gronkowski touchdowns when the Heat host the Raptors. The Grizzlies will also take on the Celtics earlier in the day, so there's plenty of opportunity for some Celtic/Patriot New England connections.
You see, there's nothing wrong with combining a random day in the NBA with the biggest day in the NFL (and all of sports). In fact, the two have been merged before:
Poor Cleveland. Who knew that playful commercial would now sting so much. That shot of LeBron James as a "World Champion" for the Browns, something he obviously didn't accomplish with any sports franchise in Cleveland, cuts deep.
And would you guess who "LeBrown" and his NFL squad defeat in this faux Super Bowl (er... AFC Championship)? That's right, it's your Miami Dolphins. Taking his talents to South Beach, indeed.
We'll keep you posted on which cross-sport wagers are worthy of your Super Bowl prop betting attention next week, which could even include some NHL or college basketball, as we eagerly anticipate the complete list of 2012 Super Bowl XLVI (46) prop bets to be released late tonight early tomorrow--at which point our extensive coverage of the crazy prop betting action will Heat up even more.
