MANNING AND BREES
Yep, they even played together as babies. Drew grew up. Peyton didn't.
I didn't like Super Bowl 44. I usually don't. Because the teams represented there are not my teams. Only 3 times out of 44 have I had a real interest in the game. And my team lost 2 of the 3. Including last year.
It's the thing that grudges are made for. I still will never forgive the Patsies for stealing the Rams thunder in '02 when our son and I were there. Brady and Belichek are devil incarnates to me. Add Big Ben Roth. to that list for rallying the Stealers (no misspelling there) against the Az Cardinals last year.
So this year I ended the football season with a record of 0-7. The last seven teams I was rooting for lost, including the Colts in the Big One. 'nuff said about this season which not only saw my Rams stoop to a 1-15 record, but saw my Cardinal quarterback and favorite all-time athlete retire.
So why did I call Manning a baby. Evidently he refused to offer a post-game handshake. C'mon. We learned that in Little League. They do that in tee-ball.
And the Colts weren't cheated. They were whipped. Good officiating, no coaches cheating like filming the opponents' practices (see Belichek), they had no one to blame but themselves. So give me a break Peyton--you're much too class for that. Well, at least you were.
