Late night: Gramatica brothers guest on Conan

More wild ways USF is getting exposure from the Super Bowl being in town: the Gramatica brothers -- former Bulls kickers Bill and Santiago and ex-Bucs kicker Martin -- taped a segment in Tampa on Thursday with Conan O'Brien.
The kickers taped the bit at Tampa's Jefferson High -- it should be part of NBC's pregame show on Sunday, and should also air on Late Night -- no word on whether it will be part of Thursday or Friday's show. In the photo, left to right, that's Martin, Santiago, Conan and Bill.
"That was amazing," Santiago said Thursday. "We're all fans, but after meeting him, we're even bigger fans. He's just a naturally funny guy."
NBC called USF asking for help for a segment showing O'Brien how to kick a field goal, and the Bulls suggested the Gramaticas. As for O'Brien's kicking ability? "Absolutely, he's a great athlete," Santiago said. "He's more the size of a punter, but he did a great job."
