Obligatory Super Bowl Post
Not that I really want to focus on yesterday’s Super Bowl because my team lost, but having made so many previous posts on the topic, I feel obligated. Yesterday, the better team won. Ouch. That hurts to say, but it’s true. I felt that the teams were very evenly matched, and when you look... »
Cinderella Saints?
The Super Bowl is almost here and my sports related posts will soon come to a close, but considering that I live in Indy and the Colts are in the Super Bowl, I have a few more football posts left in me. Tonight I was watching the news and I saw Queen Latifah say... »
Saints vs. Colts in Super Bowl XLIV
So the Saints pulled it out and are headed to Super Bowl XLIV. While I had imagined a “Perfect Bowl” (I created that term) between an undefeated Colts and undefeated Saints, slightly imperfect Colts and Saints teams will have to do. By the end of the NFC Championship game, it actually seemed like a... »
Super Bowl XLIV
Before the season started, I wasn’t too sure the Colts were ready to return to the Super Bowl. Now, in hindsight, I’m not sure what I was so concerned about. I’m not saying that I should have known from the beginning that the Colts would return to the Super Bowl, but I think there... »
Not a Sports Blog, but…
This is by no means a sports blog, but I just realized that several of my latest posts are about sports. More specifically, the Colts. I guess it just reflects the time of year and some of my interests. Pretty soon the NFL season will be over, and I’ll be on to something else. ... »
The No One’s Perfect Bowl
So the Colts threw in the towel against the Jets. That was ugly. I guess the Colts wanted to see what it felt like to be Detroit for a couple weeks. As a Colts fan, I hated seeing them lose on purpose to the Jets. Now that’s not to say that they would have... »
The Nearly Perfect Bowl
Unfortunately, my quest for The Perfect Bowl disappeared last Saturday. It was fun while it lasted. Now I’m on to The Nearly Perfect Bowl. My hope is that the Colts will continue their winning streak all the way through the Super Bowl. Today the Colts play the Jets. While any team can beat another... »
Saints Really Blew It
In a matter of three hours, my dreams of a Perfect Bowl were dashed. I was so sure that the Saints would pull out all the stops and make a run at a 16-0 regular season. Unfortunately the normally hapless Cowboys decided to show up. So there goes my hopes for a Perfect Bowl. ... »
The Colts Did it!
That was quite an offensive battle, but as has happened so often for the Colts this season, the defense steps up in the end and puts the game away. As with all the games between the Jaguars and the Colts, this was a tight nail biter. And with two and a half minutes left,... »
Will It End Tonight?
My hopes and dreams of The Perfect Bowl (undefeated Colts & Saints in Super Bowl XLIV) could come crashing back down to earth tonight. There’s something in me that feels a bit uneasy about the game tonight, but I’m enouraged to know the Colts’ history in primetime and on Thursday nights specifically. I saw a stat this... »
