Andrew Luck and Peyton....not a good fit says Archie Manning

Well, pops says it all! And Doesn't dad know best? According to Archie Manning, father of Colt's QB, Peyton Manning, speaks out about the draft and the team for next year. Archie is a smart man when talking about sports, especially the NFL, and of course, talking about his son. Archie thinks that the Indianapolis Colt's would be making a mistake with draftin Luck and continuing on with playing Manning as the starting QB. He says that Luck is already "mature" enough to step right in and be the new team leader for any team he goes to Also, Archie says that Peyton and Andrew probably, in all honestly, not even want to play on the same team together, even though their friendship.

This topic is probably one of the biggest and most often heard about subject for all of Colt's fans. Archie threw out his opinions about Luck and his son playing on the same team for next year, and now here our mine. I think that the Colt's need to continue on with Manning and not forget about, oh yea, the only 4 time NFL MVP ever! Manning could be on the NFL MVP list for this years running becasue obviously he is the Colt's team, pride, and the fans joy! Yes, although he may not have as many years as Luck has in him, but we do know one thing, he is a solid QB who hardly has ever failed on the team. I say, keep Manning, and perhaps when Manning retires, their will be another all-star QB coming to town!

It's back! Finally! The topic in which I chose to discuss is about the NBA season. The NBA was delayed to play games this year due to financial matters. The players were being denied there pay because of the money problems the NBA owners are suffering from. The NBA commitee has not been thrilled with there debt problems for the last few years, and finally, this year was the year in which the players experienced those problems. Some of the players experienced being jobless for awhile. The NBA commitee and the players discussed multiple times about pay cuts and when or if the season would ever begin this year. Finally, mark the date, December 15th is the day when all teams will be re-joining and start their team practices.

I am very glad that the season has finally started back up! Although the talented players may be getting overpaid, they are still very enjoyable to watch! Also, many cities' downtown businesses have been down in business due to the first month being cancled. Indiana downtown businesses are thrilled that the Pacers and their oponents will be returning to Conseco.
