What a glorious week to be nude. Particularly if you are young, female and accomplished at pole-dancing.

Super Bowl Week attracts hundreds of professional athletes, rappers and other celebrities with free time and fat wallets, and -- coincidentally -- for some reason this same demographic tends to gravitate to strip clubs.
Super Bowl + Strippers = Super Pole, and the Mecca of such places in So. Fla. is the King of Diamonds Gentleman's Club, conveniently located just minutes from It's-Still-Dolphin Stadium-To-Me in Miami Gardens.

[Dear Impressionable Young Children: Your sports heroes do not frequent strip clubs to ogle women. No. They are there to conduct academic research related to the meteorological phenomenon called ``making it rain.''].

Past few days already have seen Willis McGahee, Devin Hester and Terrell Owens among NFL'ers hosting parties there. Tuesday night is a ``Waitress/Bartender Strip-Off'' administered by Trick Daddy and Uncle Luke.
Wednesday, Santana and Sinorice Moss, Reggie Wayne and Andre Johnson have scheduled a Receivers Throw-Down Party. Our own Ronnie Brown has booked a VIP suite as well.
The weekend? That's Diddy time! On his certified Twitter account Sean Combs announced, verbatim: i have bought out king of diamonds strip club out for Superbowl weekend!!!
The club features 12 sky-box suites, 41 VIP rooms, a barber shop, basketball court, auto detailing, a tanning salon and bathrooms with computers and Internet.

``This,'' announces King of Diamonds impresario Ricky (Disco Rick) Taylor, ``will be the biggest weekend in strip club history in South Florida.''
Smirk is not exactly sure who the historian is who keeps track of that or how such research is conducted, but has applied for the job.
• The Colts and Saints arrived in South Florida on Monday to dreary, daylong rain, the weather a special request of the New Orleans Super Bowl Host Committee.

• Tuesday at the stadium is Media Day (moved indoors because of weather), the annual bad-quotes festival that finds hundreds of sportswriters bemoaning Super Bowl excess by writing about it. Should be a profitable day for Smirk, though. I've got a quiniela bet that the media herd will include a precocious kid from Nickelodeon and a Mexican TV guy dressed like a superhero.

• A league security briefing Monday included a list of 20 items that might not be carried into the stadium on Super Bowl Sunday. One of them: Cans of hairspray.

• Celebrities and opulent partying have become integral with Super Bowl Week. It's the only week of the year when you might overhear someone yell, ``That's Ludacris!'' and not be sure if they meant the rapper or the general excess.
