PHOENIX (AP) — Super Bowl weekend isn't just about the championship game for Snoop Dogg — it's also a reminder that the next generation of NFL greats need to develop. The rapper has for years sponsored a youth football league that has now seen several players turn pro. Running back Ronnie Hillman, who was in Dogg's league growing up, was part of last year's Denver Broncos team that made it to the Super Bowl. The Broncos lost, but Dogg said it's may only be a couple of years before one of his boys becomes a Super Bowl champion. "They're coming out left and right," Dogg said Friday before performing at the DirecTV Super Fan Fest. "We did a great job as far as establishing this football league years ago," he said. Dogg is hosting his youth football event, Snooperbowl 2015, at a Phoenix-area high school on Saturday.Read more on NewsOK.com
