Its incredible how close this is to being the real thing. It genuinely looks like Tracy Porter squats the route and is looking at Peyton Manning the entire time.

To the person who made the video, I say to you, well done sir. You may have too much time on your hands but you’ve entertained this lowly blogger.

Holly Madison held a Super Bowl party at Lavo night club Saturday night called the Holly bowl. Naming a party after yourself isn’t really unique, in fact its kind of egocentric. But alas, I’m not sure anybody really cares if she looks like that.

Donned in a Peyton Manning jersey, Holly obviously had a strong rooting interest in the game. Can’t say I’m shocked that a chick who probably knows nothing about sports and who’s famous for showing her boobies to everyone is a front runner.

Unfortunately for Madison, her Colts choked big time. Some of the blame actually goes to her co-star on “Girls Next Door”, Kendra Wilkinson and her husband Hank Baskett. It was Baskett who allowed that onside kick to bounce off his helmet to give the Saints momentum to start the second half.

Woops!

Colts fans, feel free to use these three boneheads as your celebrity scapegoats. In the meantime, I’ll enjoy these pics of Madison.

I got a text tonight from a friend, “Nice prediction” (what an a-hole). I’d feel bad about my prediction if I was going out on a limb or I was the only pseudo sports expert who thought the Colts were the far, superior team.

But I don’t.

The Saints won a game on the defensive side of the ball and with some gutsy coaching decisions. And while gutsy coaching decisions have been a staple of Sean Payton’s coaching career, the Saints haven’t exactly been stellar on defense the last couple of months.

Going for it on 4th down late in the second half looked like a failure at first, but when the Colts gave the ball right back and the Saints scored, all seemed well again.

And then the onside kick to begin the 2nd half was nothing short of brilliant. The Colts were caught with their pants down and any momentum they could have regained was lost.

But certainly the play people will be talking about for years is the Tracy Porter’s interception return for a TD that sealed the game.

Apparently, (and of course this could just be hogwash from the Saints) they had a surprise defense for Peyton in the second half. And while I’m not sure this was exactly disguised as opposed to a mix up between Wayne and Manning, it worked nonetheless.

Manning quickly went from “GOAT” to “A great quarterback who has trouble in big games”.

Sadly, he’ll be remembered for the one mistake that cost him and not the 3 1/2 quarters spent shredding the Saints defense.

On the other side, Super Bowl MVP Drew Brees was spectacular. Rarely missing a throw after the first quarter and being patient in waiting for plays to develop down field.

He was the best player on a team that managed to only lose three games all year. Congrats to the New Orleans Saints, your Super Bowl XLIV winner.

Now, we’re not sure if this picture was taken before or after the play, but regardless, it looks like Peyton’s deal with the devil is starting to take shape.

Scary, and no, this was not photoshopped. Strap some horns on that guy and call him Lucifer

While I would love to see the Saints win, I just don’t think they have enough defense to pull it off. Frankly, I’m surprised they’ve gotten this far being that weak on one side of the ball. They dominated teams early in the season but jumping out to huge leads and pinning their backs on the rush. But as the season went on, they struggled in low scoring games, losers of their last three.

They have NO shot in this game if its the in the 20s. At a minimum, they’ll need 35 points to even sniff a victory.

As for the Colts, this game will cement Peyton Manning as the greatest quarterback in NFL history. If he doesn’t throw for at least 300 yards and 3 touchdowns, I’d be completely shocked.

Colts-38

I predict that Peyton Manning will struggle through the first 20 minutes, then pick the Saints apart with laser-like precision and the Colts will cover the spread. I also predict that a female Saints fan will take her top off and someone will get it on video and post it on the Internet.

I think that the Colts win this game. Last week the Saints gave up almost 500 yards of offense to a team that I don’t feel is as good of an offense as Peyton and the Colts. They also had the 26th ranked pass defense during the season and while a lot of that was due to teams having to play catch-up to their high powered offense, I still think Peyton Manning takes over this game. He’s been in this situation before, so I doubt he’ll get the jitters and try to force things and I just see him having a much easier time letting the game come to him than Brees will. Manning is a great pace guy and doesn’t mind playing from behind in the 4th quarter, so I think if the Saint’s offense struggles to get moving (depends a lot on the health of Dwight Freeney), then Manning will systematically pick apart the Saints defense and win his second Super Bowl ring.

Although it could just as easily turn into an epic “Wild Bunch-esque” shootout; sending the “over” on yards and Brett Favre gunslinger references through the roof and my remote control through my television.

I go with the Colts, but it’s gonna be close…

i’d like to see the saints, but i think picking them would be more heart than head

The Colts are going to win, they have the greatest quarterback in the history of the game. His organization is already working on a new contract for him that’s going to make him the highest paid football player of all time, and all this is being reported before they’ve even played the game.

The Saints are the clear fan favorite, I think they have a wider arsenal of weapons, their receivers just DON’T drop balls. But, betting against Peyton is just throwing money away. So I’m going to place a bet on the Colts, but I’ll be rooting for the Saints, because New Orleans deserves some celebratory rioting, and I’m an nfc south guy. Colts, 38-31

The Colts, who have been a very respected and successful organization over the last decade pulled a big no-no with the fans on Sunday.

In the 3rd quarter, coach Jim Caldwell pulled his starters and the Colts went on to lose the game and blow a potentially perfect season.

To say the least, Colts fans who have followed the team and pay good money to go see games weren’t happy. So when Bill Polian went to do his weekly radio show on Monday, things got heated.

A brief summary from a Indianapolis Colts blog

* One caller claimed Polian and the Colts had run from the win.

* Another caller, a polite but obviously agitated lady, brought up the point that it was unfair to charge fans high ticket prices during a recession only to see the team pull starters.

* Another fan, which happened to be the last caller of the show, challenged Polian by stating the obviously: The Colts did not put forth a maximum effort to win because they pulled their starters at a critical time in the game.

After a heated exchange with another fan, the broadcast went dead. You can bet that if the Colts somehow fail prior to the Super Bowl this year, many will call for Polian’s head. It may be one thing to rest a guy who has an injury but its quite another to bench your starters in a winnable game at home.

Coming from someone who’s a Lions fan, even I find that despicable. And I lived through the Millen years.

Between Tom Brady and his ‘great fashion sense’ and Peyton singing duets with a guy who obviously has a mancrush on him, who’s a kid to look up to these days from the NFL ranks? Oh, Jim McMahon, whereforartthou? Eh, at least Tom is banging a rich supermodel… we’ll just focus on that, I guess.
