Maybe it's because I've been in the ballet biz for the last 30 years. Go. You might like it. I find it interesting that I have no idea who Peyton Manning is.

A real superbowl ring on the market could probably sell for tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the year and the player it belonged to (and if it were sold or stolen.)

I was living in New England when Brady took over for Bledsoe and that dynasty began. The AFC Champ game was my superbowl as they truly are the two best of the best current quarterbacks in many ways. Now, our entire city got the gorilla off our back! Now we can justify our 85 billion dollar stadium. Living in Indy, this has been an incredible journey.

How great for him to step outside of his "comfort" zone and attempt something new. His father was supportive and rightfully proud. He also is a very attractive man IMHO. Kudos to Peyton! Maybe he can pass some encouragement along to Eli. The best part of the Super Bowl coverage for me was a home video of Peyton in a dance performance in middle school.

The sports reporters who vote on the Heismann had made such a huge "thing" of whether he would leave Tenn. early that his announcement was actually carried live on CNN. I'm sure that every one of them had already written a long impassioned sports column about what a terrible sportman and human being he was, so when they had to throw that column away, they never forgave Peyton for doing the right thing, and trying his damndest to get a National Championship for Tennessee the next year. Just look at how much attention was directed at Peyton by those same sportscasters and writers the next year when Tennessee did win it. It gave them a topic for weeks to write about. I fully expect them to start picking at his MVP award in a couple of days.
