The Battle!

It's that time of year again: SUPERBOWL!

My Indianapolis Colts unfortunately didn't make it to the AFC Championship Title Game. Peyton Manning once again choked against the Chargers! But, the Manning household still has something to celebrate. While Peyton brought home the trophy last year, it's his younger brother Eli who's heading to the Superbowl this year!

Brady just seems to have it all. He's won 3 Superbowls, 2 Superbowl MVP awards, broke several records, AND has had a perfect season so far! To top it off, he used to date Bridget Moynahan and is with Gisele now! Come on, no guy should have that much luck!

Unbelievable!

This year, football - both professional and college - has been truly insane! This is why I love the game so much!

Tonight, unranked Arkansas just took out #1 LSU in triple OT! Arkansas went for a 2 point conversion that succeeded, while LSU attempted the same for the tie, but failed. With this upset, the field is wide open for both Missouri and Kansas to prove who wants it more. The big game is tomorrow and these two teams are old rivals. Should be a great one!

Colts

patandcolts.jpgIndianapolis Colts faced the New England Patriots in a battle of the undefeated yesterday. They met in Indianapolis for the long awaited showdown.

The Colts put on a great performance. They handed the Patriots a lot of firsts this season (first interception for Brady in 176 passes, first time not to score in the first possession, first time to not score first and longest trailing time in a game.) The defense put a lot of pressure on the Patriots and ended the first half with a Colts lead, 13-7.

The Colts held on to the lead (20-10) up until the last 3 minutes of the game, when things completely turned around. The Patriots defense kicked it up, stopping the Colts' offense. Then Brady brought it home by scoring 2 touchdowns that took them to win the game, 24-20.

Although heartbroken at the Colts' lost, I am proud of the fact that they "brought it" to the game last night. They played with heart and while I expected them to get clobbered, they held their own for most of the game. I'm sure this is a lesson though, that they've got to hold on till the last whistle.

Although I royally hate Brady now, the Patriots and Colts have so far forced themselves to be the teams to watch this season. 8 more weeks till the playoffs.

PLAY BALL!

Must Speak!

football.jpgI've been trying to avoid the subject of football, but I can't anymore! (American Football that is!) This season has been insane so far. So many wow games early on (Oakland v Denver :shock: )

Now to top it off, college football is following suit. So many upsets last night! The top 25 got clobbered!

Ok I'm done. Back to our regularly scheduled program!
