I don’t want to pile on to the Colts’ loss in the Super Bowl, but when other people have avoided post-loss handshakes it’s made headlines so I think this deserves some comment. It seems Colts quarterback Peyton Manning wasn’t interested in sticking around to shake the hands of the New Orleans Saints after he blew [...]

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning won a record fourth NFL MVP award in a landslide. When the news was posted on Pro Football Talk, there were the predictable comments praising Manning or decrying the choice.

If only his name were Chad Manning
When in doubt, go with an old standby. That’s what voters for the NFL MVP Award said today by selecting Peyton Manning the League MVP.

Best SNL athlete skit ever
Michael Phelps hosts Saturday Night Live tonight. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Athletes rarely do well with SNL because, well, they’re not actors. Have you seen the Phelps Rosetta Stone commercial? Be very VERY afraid.
