I believe it's important for a person to admit when they are wrong. I was wrong. I have noted for some years that the Colts would be unable to win a Super Bowl with Peyton Manning as quarterback. Evidently I was wrong. His inability to perform in the playoffs was not enough to prevent the Colts from winning.
It rained pretty much the entire game. It looked miserable out there, not only the field but the play. Messy, sloppy nasty game.
I don't agree with Manning as MVP either. His stats for the game weren't bad but Adam Vinaiteri, the field goal kicker, scored more points than he did, kicking in the rain with a lack of proper footing. Sure he missed one but big deal.
I didn't see an Apple ad. This morning on the website they announced that they bought the trademarks from Apple Corp and were leasing any items Apple Corp would need to use back to them. Weird. Wonder if they are still working on a 'Beatles on iTunes' contract or if that was just someone misinterpreting what did happen.
Eitherway, the game wasn't Super nor were the ads this year. Those of you reading this that care not for football should be safe for a few months anyway.
Bah.

Go!!! nobody...
Today's the Super Bowl. Can't honestly say I'm too excited about the game itself.
I live in Milwaukee, WI. As a long time Green Bay Packer fan, it's not in my nature to cheer for the Bears. When they went to the Super Bowl in 1985/1986, the team had momentum and you just knew that they were going to win. I don't have that feeling this time round. The Bears have been a very uneven team this season but have found ways to win. I can see that happening again today.
I have no real love or hate for the Colts. As a player, I'm not fond of Peyton Manning. As a person he seems like a nice enough guy, at least the commercials he's in give the impression that he has a sense of humour. I've spent a few years explaining how Peyton Manning would never win the big one because he couldn't get it together in the playoffs and, until the last half of the championship game, I could argue that didn't change this year. After saying all that, I'd be a hypocrite to cheer for them.
So, I'm cheering for Apple. Rumour is that they have something interesting to announce during the game. Perhaps it will be the new style video iPod or that the Beatles have been added to iTunes. Eitherway, go Apple! Hooray!
