I am glad to hear that Porter is excited for next season… in Oakland even but I am not happy about him changing his number to 81.  Al, how can you let Jerry Porter take Tim Brown’s number!!  It isn’t right!!  Tim has to be one of the top 10 Raiders of all time and you let Porter take his number?!  Maybe Jerry wants to prentend that all of the fans wearing Brown jerseys in the stands are wearing his jersey next season.  Come on Jerry, pick something else.  There are plenty of other numbers to choose from. Porter ready for new start in Oakland – NFL – Yahoo!

So the Brooks experiment is over.  After a forgetful year at QB it looks like the Raiders are leaning towards selecting a QB with pick #1.  Tui is expected to leave as well as he is a free agent which just leaves Walters on the roster.  Better start watching that combine on NFL Network.

Seven is usually the wrestling expert but this pop culture story could be Huuuge so I had to post it.  The Donald challenged WWE’s McMahon to a match and the loser loses their hair.  McMahon countered with having other wrestler’s take their place but the bet is still the same.  I can support anything that could be the end to that ridiculous hairdo.  But I shouldn’t get too excited, after all the outcome was probably determined before the challenge was even given but here is to hoping.

Road games have been the weakness for this young Heels team this year but they pulled off a great win in Cameron, one of the toughest places for visotors to play.  Nicely done Heels.

A big dose of congratulations finally goes out to the Colts as they get the monkey off their backs and finally win the Super Bowl thus cementing thier status as one of the great teams of the past decade.  And boy was it an ugly game.  I was worried from the second I turned on the pre-game show and saw the rain.  Surely the grind it out Bears would have the advantage on a rain soaked field.  And after the first five minutes of play I thought that would be the case following the opening kickoff return and Peyton’s pick on the ensuing drive.

But the Colts played through adversity once again and came out on top.  Of course the MVP of the game probably shouldn’t have been Manning, it probably should have been Grossman as his grand display of ineptitude handed the game to the Colts.  If they could have converted on a few more of those turnovers this would have been a blowout in the first half.

The bottom line however is that they did what they had to do to win.  The defense stepped up big time, Rhodes and Addai controlled the ball and imposed their will on the Bears D and Peyton came though when he needed to.
