Superbowl Time/ Rant

Well everyone, its that time of year again. Its the time when football comes to an end and we are left to wait a month for spring training to begin. Well was it me, or did the playoffs just suck this year. There was one good game. And still the curse of Favre continues. It has gotten to the point now, where you ask yourself, not if, but when is he gonna make the mistake that costs his team. He did it against Philly a couple years ago and low and behold he did it this year. He had a phenomenal season dont get me wrong, and for those of you who know me, thats hard for me to admit, but it never fails. It never fails the same way it never fails that we have to hear every single day that Tom Brady is the greatest QB ever. Usually the main argument to this is the fact that he has won 3 superbowls. Well ladi freakin da. Funny I thought football was the only true team sport, it takes a team to win a superbowl. By that definition Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Mark Rypien and Jeff Hostettler are better QBs then Dan Marino and Jim Kelly. I mean please people lets use some common sense here. Tom Brady walked into a great position, he had no pressure and his team had a great defense. Im sorry but that isnt the same as being drafted number 1 like John Elway and Peyton Manning and having your team be a contender every year. Lets use this argument for other sports. Now we are calling Jud Buchler a better basketball player then Charles Barkley and Reggie Miller, and we are calling Brian Banks a better baseball player then Barry Bonds. I know what your thinking who the hell is Jud Buchler and Brian Banks? This just proves my point ever more. If we are going to judge how good of a player someone is lets do it on something else. MVPs, stats, not championships. Oh ya and sorry Tom, Peyton has more MVPs then you, you had to have an all star team to get yours.

SC Rules!!!

I think that the one thing that we can take away from the New Years day bowl games is that the two best teams in the country have already played, it wasn't against each other, and it wasn't for the national championship. Someone please help the BCS mess.
