With all the accolades, Peyton still needs to win The Big One again.

[Darren.]

Well deserved, IMO, and totally agree. Has to win a second ring...

[Marty]

Hard to argue with the choice, even though there are other worthy candidates.

And he played in the SEC

[Sam]

The good news: He is 37 years old.

 

The bad news: He is on the cover of SI which means he is going into the toilet with the team real soon.

Is that like the Madden cover curse, or whoever plays a James Bond theme curse?

[Sam]

Yep.

 

Been that way for years.

 

While at LSU we had a football player who was all world. He got his picture on the cover of SI and proceeded to pull a  hamstring which kept him out of some games.

 

The SI cover curse is known throughout the sporting world. If you don't believe me ask Nickie Satan at Bamasux!

I don't think much about "The Curse", but the best teams don't always win.

Once the play-offs begin it's one and done. I doubt that anyone, including

die hard Giants fans, think New York was the better team in 2007, but they

beat the Patriots. If anyone is "cursed" it's Tom Brady vs Eli.
