TWO men will take to the biggest sporting stage of their lives tonight looking to achieve much more than winning a Super Bowl.
For the first time in NFL history, the 'greatest show on turf' will feature two black quarterbacks in the shape of Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts.
And with this groundbreaking moment will also come the greatest chance for America's game to use the defining event to change its ethos, landscape and future forever.
1988 might seem a like long time ago to some people, but in those intervening years some things have barely changed.
Doug Williams was the first black quarterback to play in - and win - the Super Bowl 35 years ago.
And even this happened by accident, because Williams only played in the showpiece game because someone else got injured.
But if Williams thought he would go on to become a trailblazer, he was sadly mistaken.
