Really? I thought it was just because he's a white dude.

Tom Brady says he's slow and can't jump. He blames it on his ankle injury. If Peyton Manning had come out with a line like this a couple of months after losing the Super Bowl, everyone in New England would kill him for being a wuss. Soooooo.

Tom Brady is a wuss who makes excuses.

CHFF does their all-time franchise rankings. The Colts come in a very respectable 11th. It's frankly amazing considering how many horrible years the franchise suffered. Johnny U is rightly the face of the franchise and Dungy pulls down the 'best coach' amid really strong competition.

Ah, well, Tom can't hold Peyton's jock...neither of the Mannings have ever lost a Super Bowl, unlike pretty boy Brady.

Please get your facts straight. I heard the Brady interview.Go to patriots.com. He said his ankle was great. He jokingly said he was still slow ,cant jump and lifts little weight. He was joking. The news media sucks. They changed what he said on purpose to make a story where there isnt one.

Um, I was joking too, moron.

alot of media outlets are printing this story as fact. Jackass!

Deshawn Zombie said...

I know. I think it's hi-larious.

Gee, how could some one be so stupid as to not get sarcasm? You must work for the AP.

Have some guts and post your name the next time you fail to get a joke.

I might care about this but another one of my teams is playing in a championship game/series today.

Isn't there like a cool open wheel race you can focus on today?

Open wheel right? That's......that's what you guys watch?

See anonymous? If you want to be snarky, let JC show you how to do it.

I'd have a witty comeback, but none really exists. Um, the race was last night! Shows what you know about open wheel racing! I'm going to watch Argentina/USA in soccer instead.

Oh, never mind. Enjoy the game.

White guys are slow too, just ask Madden 08. Matt Giordano is one of the slowest DBs in the game.

Well it looks like we only need to win two more games the Lord's Way and it's a pretty good minus that one hiccup that my shrink says didn't really happen.

Like one particular Laker fan once said (and I'm omitting the Bruins) "Two outta three ain't bad....."

Regarding CHFF, I am a little surprised at how high the Browns are... like in financial valuation, isn't there some discounting that should go on for championships that happened 30-40 years ago? In my mind, a championship 40 years ago is worth $1 million 40 years in the future (discounted at 10% that's about $22k--it's nice and all, but nothing to get too excited about).

Also interesting that Marvin is not included in a list of Colts greats. Yes, it's a crowded list, but how do you leave off a sure HOFer? Weird.

Deshawn Zombie said...

I give them credit for including the past. That team was dominant at one time, and that gives a franchise character.

Marvin is on the list. Dickerson and Faulk are not.

Bob M. said...

Oy! They went alphabetically, sandwiching Marvin and Peyton between a lot of older guys. Guess I missed that one. Reading comprehension? Not so much.

Reasonable that Dickerson would be thought of as a Ram and Faulk, isn't that weird?, as well.
