The War of 18 & 12


The Peyton Manning lead Colts represent everything that is good in this world. Their uniforms are blue and white...the same color of the blessed Cougars of BYU. Their owner is a devout god loving Christian. Their new coach Jim Caldwell is a quiet unassuming guy much like his predecessor. The Colts pride themselves on playing the game the right way...within the rulebook. They win by executing better than their foes...by being smarter.


The Patriots are the polar opposite. Their wins come from being sly, cunning and devious. All aspects that are direct reflections of their wicked coach Bill Belichick. They gain victory from exploiting other teams, by looking at the rule book and then conveniently forgetting certain pages. When it comes down to it the Patriots cheat....plain and simple. Yeah they don't film practices anymore, but a zebra can't change his stripes. The Hoodie is smart and I'm sure he's found other advantages outside the realm of honesty and honor.


Tom Brady is no different. This guy believes he is above the rules of the game and with Belichick as his coach why shouldn't he believe that? Brady thinks it a serious penalty if his jersey gets dirty and I've heard rumor that he's petitioned for getting his own yellow flag so that if anyone brushes his knees he can call the penalty himself instead of waiting for the ref to do it for him. Tom has won championships on the leg of his kicker and the whistle of refs who he has manipulated into thinking he's anything more than a frat boy with a hot girlfriend.


Once again Brady will square up against Manning and the War of 18 & 12 will add another chapter to it's story. A story not only of football, but of good vs evil and I'm telling you that good will prevail.

Peyton to Collie has such a nice ring to it....

Guys read this article. It has so much insight into what goes into the Colts offense and how impressive the play of Austin Collie really is. BTW the Colts will beat the Patsies this coming Sunday. I would say more, but I'm saving that for later. Anyway...just click on the title of this post and it will take you right to the article. I'm interested in what you guys think.

Group Disagreement

Alright this is an idea I want to try out and see how it goes. Each week I want to post a topic with 3 general questions pertaining to that topic, and then have anyone who reads this blog or stumbles across it debate the issues and see where it takes us.

This weeks topic: College Football

1. In light of ESPN's College Gameday coming to a Mountain West school for the 3rd time this year (a remarkable fact) is the Mountain West gaining credibility nationally? Or is it just the Big 3 (TCU, BYU and Utah) that are getting the recognition? Does that credibility put them on the same level as some of the BCS conferences? Will this eventually lead to an automatic bid for the Mountain West into a BCS game?

2. Considering the national landscape of college football this year, will 2 non-bcs teams (Boise St. and TCU/Utah) break the barrier and get into BCS games? Could one play for a title this year? Ever?

3. Finally, how would you fix college football? Playoff? How big of a playoff? Keep everything the same? Why?

Ok feel free to debate any issue that I came up with or create your own as you debate, hopefully everyone will jump in on this. We need some good clean debate going on.

Ready.... Set... Debate!
