Well, MR treated me to beer and pizza. The before game show was Colts-centric, but perhaps the previous 2 hours were Bears-centric. I don't know. The show introduced by Gloria Estafan required the TV viewers to be on LSD. The halftime show was, welll, as expected unentertaining. I really wonder about the throng of people who ran up to the stage. Many were so young, I doubt they knew Prince.
Well the game was good, the first fourteen seconds I thought showed exactly how the game was going to be, but it was a fluke. Within minutes, Indy looked like a team ready for a beating. It was a grim day for the Colts fans. The rain came down throughout the game. Even the hawkers of overpriced goods hid from the rain. The second quarter came up and through that there were turnovers after turnovers. The Colts then began to score.
Obviously by games's end, the Colts demonstrated that they were a tough team and not the squeakers-by that I claimed they were. They showed a faithless person such as myself that Indy could win a superbowl. I couldn't believe this team that tumbled the ball away, denying a field goal and Manning throwing so many bad passes -- three in a row that could have been interceptions. One was caught by the Bears.
Manning getting MVP for the Superbowl game ... I disagree with that. Granted, the short passes won the game, but his bad throwing at the start, I think should have prevented MVP status. When the turnovers are high, look for a receiver to get the MVP.
After all the hype and fluff and pomp and circumstance you have the awards and you have a feeling-neglected puppy plain full of it wanting to play, and so she did. Chase the ball, chew the toy, run around, bite the sweeper. Fun, fun, fun. MVP goes to Maia.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

Shame on me
I didn't believe in the Colts and thought they would lose. They taught me, other faithless persons, and the Bears. They really did win! They didn't squeak by, but finished with nearly a two-touchdown gap. Gratulations Colts, I didn't think that you could do it!
Dungy did it very well! This will undoubtedly give Indiana a reason to make Hoosiers II, the other underdogs.
We've got Rudy, Hoosiers and maybe Indiana will host the Superbowl sometime. Wouldn't that be special?

Super Bowl XLI
For Indiana XLI is for Superbowl eXtra Large one, in that Indy is there and Chicago is there. Hooray; hoorah; the gang's all here! Yesiree, dis here game, da Bears and the Colts will be legendary. Either Colts win be a respectable 2nd or pull out a win. I'm still thinking that da Bears will win. I posted early that I think the spread will be 12 points, but I believe that I should drop that a bit. With the possibility of injury recoveries, I'll drop the point spread to 9. Bears should win by 9 points, but not likely 12.
Indy will have its larger dome and might sometime host the superbowl. I just hope that the Colts have this new dome and putter out after this year. "Looks like we made it ... " sadly droning on in the background, Shania's voice echoing, not the intentionally love song, but rather Colts losing focus.
Politics aside, the fanfare of the first two African-American (Black) head coaches making it to the Superbowl, I believe that they will, will, get some real hefty raises, regardless the outcome. You got your team to the Superbowl? Here's x (current salary), whereas x is a number between 2 and 9 inclusively. Ah, I see you've solved x for 12, very good.
