Maybe Brady and Belichick need to know how linked is their success. If one can be a champ or at least get close without the other. Brady, unlike Manning, waited too late to find out. Pride and the fall are arm in arm for this go round.
Peyton Manning and the Colts were my guy/team. I tried, briefly, to get interested in the Broncos when Peyton returned to football after his neck surgery. I didn't last through the agonizing end to that debacle. Peyton should have walked out when he was up and had the perfect reason to hang up his helmet and cleats.
I also briefly tried to follow the Colts but that didn't take either. Actually the end of the Peyton Manning era was pretty much the end of football watching for me. There was a lot of team switching all across both leagues and guys retiring and I just didn't find the chemistry I enjoyed anywhere.
Husband is a Steelers fan but Big Ben is too iffy for me to care about though I did watch now and then just to see Troy Polamalu come flying in from who knows where to make awesome plays. That's a guy who knew when it was time to walk away.
With the Brady/Belichick thing done and over I only have one team to hate...the Cowboys...but that's mostly because of Jerry Jones.
An aside..........
Back in my college days I was dating a Japanese woman, smart as whip, and when I first met her, I introduced her to the NFL the first fall semester. She was so smart, by the end of the season, she was calling penalties I missed, and I had been watching the game since I was a kid.
Anywho, time went by we graduated, and I was a football card collector at the time. So one day we were in a si/fi/sports card collectible shop, and I go to the dollar bin, looking for rookie cards, because sometimes the employees miss that stuff. Suddenly she pulls out this Peyton Manning card, and says, "I think this is a rookie card" ......... I was thinking, "How would you know?"........... Dumbest fucking thought ever on my part knowing she now has A PHD in microbiology! So I look at it, and sure enough, SHE picked out a Peyton Manning rookie card. I paid a buck for it, but the Becket Guide put it at $15 bucks.
And I hate the Cowboys too.
