The superbowl, rex grossman, and othe ramblings

The super bowl took place this weekend and just in case you missed it, the colts defeated the bears by just a little more than the spread..and the colts in the process shook the ol proverbial monkey off the back of Peyton, Dungy, and the whole Indy colts franchise. Well let me be the first to congratulate the colts because they have always been there, but, always just fall a little short. Well not this time, as the colts looked like the team that is now just as much power as they are finesse....and let me just say that i was wrong about tony dungy...ok..i was wrong, he coached a great game and has always led his team with quiet excellence, so cheers to you. Grossman, where do i start here...has some semblance of talent...but when the time comes to deliver, he not only doesn't come up with anything positive he looks darn right silly out there sometimes. Look he has a great arm and is young enough to rebound and i think go on from this, but, all I'm saying is that maybe we've seen his ceiling.. i mean maybe that's as good as it gets with him.
Now on to Peyton manning...he has now cemented his place in the upper level quarterbacks of history. Right up there with Elwa, Montana, Unitas, Marino, all the greats. He shakes off all that stat guy label stuff with one big win, and dare i say it Brady fans, didn't he just creep a little closer or maybe even pass your beloved Brady? Well most importantly he can at least enter in to those discussions..
Once again i ran into the superbowl this year with all the expectations of a fantastic unbelievable extravaganza, and what i got is bloated, bored and disappointed. It always seems like the game itself just never lives up to the hype, and maybe that is in the end it's curse. The game itself i always look forward to and then it just seems to fizzle out, and this one with all the friggin rain....oh yeah, it rained the whole game, was another in the long line of superbowl flops in my book. So when the time comes and it lives up to the expectations i will capitalize the game known as the superbowl.
