So after the press conference on Wednesday and I cried out my tears at the sadness on seeing him leave the only team he's ever known, I sat there and thought about his future. Where would he go that would allow him the best chance to win a superbowl? I came up with these several reasons why he would most likely come here.

As you can probably tell from my signature I also happen to be a Cowboys fan as I'm from the great city of Dallas. But when I started watching football as a young girl inevitably I heard about the great Peyton Manning and I knew I had to see what all the hype was about and that's when Peyton became my favorite quarterback.

So without further ado, thank you Peyton for teaching me what great quarterbacks look like, what team leaders look like when their team needs a boost. How studying film and working hard all year long can bring great rewards in the form of a superbowl. I loved how passionate you are about the game, when times were good you encouraged the team and all the younger players looked up to you, their leader. When the o-line forgot to block (an often occurrence) you would show them how much you cared by yelling at them and then telling them that they could do it. But above all your audibles are pure genius and I'm sure your offensive line must stand there going "can this man just hurry up!" but that's what makes you such a great and unique quarterback and I'll definitely miss hearing "RICHMOND, MACADAMIA! COYOTE! TOYOTA!" Come on admit it, you will miss staring at the t.v wondering what exactly is Peyton yelling about (no worries the team itself doesn't know). But quite possibly my favorite line from Peyton is "GOD DAMMIT DONALD!" and I think that quote describes Peyton as a perfectionist who always demanded the best for not only himself but for the players around him.

So in the end, I will miss Peyton for all his funny moments, life lessons that he has taught me and I hope that I will be able to see him as a player for the next several years and as a talking head(come on you know he would be hilarious and knowledgeable) or as a coach for the Indianapolis Colts. Andrew Luck and Peyton Manning I both wish you luck as you continue on your paths but Luck you have big shoes to fill and I believe you will make your own mark on the franchise. Moving on is one thing but forgetting is another.

I just wanted to say, thank you StampedeBlue blog thingy for keeping me sane after the Longhorns lost the National Championship. Before then, I was a little to caught up in the Longhorns events but after their heartbreaking loss to Alabama with Colt getting injured I needed something else football related to keep me going. And the Colts were the perfect remedy for that (though I have been a colts fan since...5 years ago but I'm only 16 so it makes sense) seeing as how they dominated the last two games. And I was hoping that the Colts would win the super bowl so I would feel better, but nope, obviously the Longhorns and the Colts either both win the championships or both lose them. (2006, longhorns-national champs, Colts-superbowl champs). 

So with that being said, I am quite proud of this team, yes Pierre Garcon did have a inoportune fumble but he still played amazingly well this whole season for only being a 2nd year player. And with that being said, I'm not as terribly sad as I was after the longhorns loss. Think of it this way, Colt Mccoy is a senior and leaving for the NFL soon, short of the Super Bowl he would never have a chance for a championship at all. But that's whats different about the Colts, Peyton Manning is coming back now with a chip on his shoulder, the rest of his team is coming back too stronger and better and who knows what else Polian can cook up in the Off Season. 

Once again thanks for having me here, I have enjoyed my stay, oh and tell me your opinions on Colt Mccoy and how he will do in the NFL please :)
