Medical Marijuana Field at Mile High

I liked the team name The Los Angeles Chargers of Anaheim

and this was good

Houston quarterback Christian Hackenberg throws a Super Bowl-record six interceptions, leaving Texans fans longing for the days of Matt Schaub and David Carr. The lone bright spot for Houston is defensive end J.J. Watt, who makes 23 tackles and scores on a 2-yard touchdown run -- one day after completing an Ironman Triathlon and rescuing a family of four from a burning building.

The one with the Jets actually winning a Super Bowl is probably the funniest one of all........:biggrin-new:

I am glad for him but sad for me.
At least your team has a backup quarterback who shows promise and has had some actual experience under his belt, not just at taking a knee. :rolleyes: I'm glad Peyton is stepping down while he's on top and before the injuries he's suffered are debilitating. Even though he was playing better than a lot of others, he really looked banged up this past year. I wish him all the best and it's not just because he won't be around to kick the Patriots' butt anymore. :D

I'm glad he's retiring. The past couple of seasons, he has looked pretty beat up and I would hate to see him take any more hits. It's probably somewhat dangerous for him to be playing with the neck issue he has too. He's had a great career and he will probably be able to slip into a NFL front office job somewhere if that's what he wants.

I am glad, too. It is time, he has had an incredible career. Glad he is going out on top, no better way to do it.

Thank you, Peyton. :love_heart:

Will they continue with Brock Osweiler? With Maning’s retirement, will the Bronco’s now be playing a game of quarterback chicken? Will they pay Brock what he think he’s worth? They can’t slap a franchise tag on him because that was given to linebacker Von Miller. And if Osweiler goes elsewhere what is available on the free agent market to them? Robert Griffen III and other young under performers, and a bunch of old guys who would have to learn a whole new system at the end of their careers.

It's gonna be strange not watching Peyton take the field anymore. For me, his defining moment will always be his 2006 AFC Championship victory over the Patriots and subsequent Super Bowl XLI victory over the Bears. 14 years with the Colts that weren't wasted at all... except for the season where he couldn't play and everything hit the fan. A shame he could only win one Super Bowl at Indy, but hey, that's one more than the franchise had experienced since moving to Indy in the first place.

I'm glad he found success with the Broncos and earned that well-deserved second ring. His retirement speech was very moving.
