MIAMI -- This is where Curtis Tavares Dopson was shot dead, a lonely spot along N.W. 13th Avenue where -- as overhyped and unfair as it likely will turn out to be -- Chad Johnson's name also was wounded this Super Bowl week.

Making your way down the narrow, overgrown walkway to the back of this small tan and brown duplex in Miami's tough Allapattah section, you come upon the reddish-brown blood stains -- dinner-plate sized - - on the sidewalk and the concrete stoop of Dopson's apartment. This is where he was shot multiple times in the early morning hours eight days ago.
