The Indianapolis
Colts win over the Chicago Bears in Super Bowl XLI helped an overrated
quarterback earn his place in American football history and treated fans
to a decent game when compared to years past.
For Colts fan Justin Peredo, 17 of Sinajana, who had newfound fortune
as a result of the W by Peyton Manning and Co. watching the
game was well worth his time Yeah baby! stated Peredo Fifty
bucks into my pocket, I knew the Colts would win, Peyton Manning is a
great QB!
Classmate AJ Cortes of Liguan Terrace offered a different take. Darn
it! I wanted the bears to win, but they had too many mistakes and really
poor defense.
Peredos Manning would go on to claim Super Bowl honors as the games
Most Valuable Player. Maybe because he slipped a couple of times
and still won, said a disgruntled Cortes. Hes lucky
their defense gave them the ball at least five times.
No, he completed a good number of passes, said Peredo. Indeed
Manning would boast 25 of 38 attempts, a total of 239 yards passing and
a touchdown to boot, was sacked and intercepted just once in his game
of a lifetime to lead his team to victory.
Cortes cousin Kevin Alegre of Yigo after the game remained in denial.
It was all just a fluke, the Bears should have won, stated
Alegre.
Still Manning and deserving Coach Tony Dungy march into history as Champions
of the National Football League, until next year at least.
