It's Time To Man(ning) Up.

Good morning peeps! Haven’t spoken to ya’ll in a bit! I have been sick on my ass the last few days. I literally sounded like Wheezy yesterday and coughing up pleghm is…not fun to say the least. And DayQuil sucks for the most part. Shit doesn’t work.

Major announcement! The Douchebrawl 2007 polls are finished and the website is…not. But the polls will be up on Friday on my Blogger page and the website (it should be up and running by then). I will try to fit the polls on the MySpace page, too.

Okay, it is rant time. As you know, I try not to rant about sports (unless I am hanging out with Rick) but today…I hate people. Now before I say this let me preface: I don’t like Tom Brady. Anyone that will travel into the void that is Tara Reid’s gullyhole is someone I CANNOT respect. With that being said….since when is Peyton Manning better than Tom Brady?! Just because Peyton wins ONE SUPER BOWL people are putting him up there with Marino, Elway and Montana (THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME). Manning is NOT better than Troy Aikman, Steve Young or even….Brett…Farve. My god, I think my brain just cracked with that one. All I can say is this. Peyton Manning was two bonehead Rex Grossman plays from being the next Warren Moon. Hell, Warren Moon was a better quarterback than Peyton solely because god HATED the Houston Oilers! Seriously, powder blue is cool in college, not the pros. Denver Nuggets; I am looking squarely at you. I mean you can’t take the numbers away from Peyton and I don’t want to because he earned them bad boys. One Super Bowl doesn’t make you great. Hell, Trent Dilfer quarterbacked a Super Bowl.

Now I am not hating on Peyton himself, I am hating on the NFL’s love affair with him. It’s the same thing with the NBA and LeBron ‘Of Course I’m Twenty!’ James. Both put up gaudy numbers on pretty good teams (well, the Cavs kind of suck) and they are seen as the future of the sport. Yet, what have they accomplished? Let’s not forget the Colts had home field advantage TWICE in the last five years and didn’t win nary a Super Bowl. And even with all the hype (and there is A LOT) around Mike Vick at least he lives up to (and exceeds) it with the talent around him (of which there is none). Name the starting receivers on the Colts. Now, the Atlanta Falcons. Nuff said. Peyton Manning has a LOADED offense and a defense that can stop people, kind of. And he until this year CHOKED. More on that later.

Hell, there are two quarterbacks better than Manning in the AFC RIGHT NOW (Tom ‘Babydaddy’ Brady and Carson Palmer who is the best QB in the league) and two in the NFC (Drew Brees and Brett Farve when he isn’t throwing it to the other team). Yes, he has a Super Bowl right but Brady has three, Farve has one and went a second time and if not for Troy Aikman/Steve Young may have went more. Carson Palmer would have had one if someone had not tried to roll him up like an SUV in a gentle curve last year. As for Drew, I have a soft spot for the Saints and had Fred ‘The Sun Was In My Eyes!’ Smith actually COVERED the Bears receivers the Super Bowl would have been a different story. The Colts D would have had NO ANSWER for Bush and McAllister. Meh, in closing Peyton is not all that. Jim McMahon won a Super Bowl! And he was a better singer AND DANCER!!

I had to get that out. I will update the peeps on Douchebrawl soon. Stay up, peeps.
