If you are spammed to death like I am daily, you’ve probably gotten these “Dancing With the Stars” deals about tonight’s big showdown between Mario whatshisname from “Saved by the Bell” and former NFL running back great Emmitt Smith, with the subject line “Mario or Emmitt.” A lot like the millions of “Coke vs. Pepsi” emails I’ve also received.

Emmitt deserves the trophy just for getting this far, although we always knew he could dance through NFL defenses with ease when the Cowboys were winning three Super Bowls. Mario’s just a pretty boy dancer. He couldn’t last two plays in the NFL.

Go Emmitt.
