0912L MST

FINALLY, MY COLTS HAVE WON A SUPER BOWL!!!!

Yeah, I know. It is actually their second, but since they moved to Indy this is their first. Coach Dungy's first. Peyton Manning and the Blue Crew's first (except for Adam Vinateri who's been to four!!! I am happy for my team, from the owner Jim Irsay, to Bill Polian, to Coach D, to everyone there. I am happy for the city of Indianapolis, who took a team that was about to get taken over by the state of Maryland by the rule of eminent domain. Read this at Wikipedia for more. I am happy for the Great State of Indiana!!! I wish the best for the Chicago Bears, who is my second favorite team. If the owners don't raise Lovie Smith's pay and sign him for a long term deal, they are pretty dumb.

Yesterday was tinged with disappointment from not being selected for promotion. I don't know what I'll do now. God allows things to happen in our lives for a reason. A reason or purpose greater than ourselves. I'll have to do a lot of soul searching. Maybe more later.

By the way, Coach D is my newest hero!!!

Later, tater.
