The State of Wisconsin must be having a slow month. On Tuesday, February 21st, by a unanimous vote, the Wisconsin State Assembly designated Dec. 12, 2012, as Aaron Rodgers Day.
Come on LeBron… You’re 27 years old, in the prime of your basketball life, and only in year two of your South Beach experience. You really feel a need to remissness and reflect like a player in the twilight of his career?
People hate Tim Tebow more for the coverage he receives than for the person that he is. And that’s unfair. Some people hate Tebow because he seems too good to be true, and that’s even sillier. Jeremy Lin is starting to receive the same kind of treatment.
Eli Manning not only put together the best season of his career, but he showed a flair for the dramatic with multiple 4th quarter game winning drives. Six in the regular season and two more in the post season.
This time around, Doritos is airing two commercials during the Super Bowl on February 5th. One created by Hollywood directors, and one created by a Doritos fan. However, before we can air the two spots during the big game, we need our fans to help us vote on their favorite fan-made spot out of the 5 finalists we’ve picked out. Yes, to make it easier for the fans, Doritos watched every single commercial that was submitted and chose the top 5. Now, these 5 finalists will go head-to-head against each other for the chance to have their commercial aired during the Super Bowl and have millions of people watch their spot.
The best power forward in the NBA has signed a four-year contract extension that’s worth between $60 and $62 million. Kevin Love’s new deal will include a player option in the final year, but T-Wolves fans have to be ecstatic their guy wants to stay in Minneapolis.
The recent report of the Miami Dolphins looking to add Peyton Manning, the Colts all time leading passer, to their team shouldn’t be a surprise. After all, the NFL fan has recently seen Packers great Brett Favre as a Jet and a Viking, and if we go back a little further we’ve seen 49ers legend Joe Montana as a Chief. The Colts will draft a quarterback with their number one overall pick in this April’s draft, and the chances of Manning staying in Indy is practically nonexistent.
Eli Manning just finished up the ’11 season throwing for nearly 5,000 yards, and he has his team on the brink of another Super Bowl title. In 3 playoff games this year he’s thrown for 923 yards with a 61.8 completion percentage and 8 TDs to only 1 pick.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith has seen his fair share of ups and downs since being the National Football League’s first overall draft pick in 2005. San Fran’s top decision at that time was between Smith and current Packers QB, Aaron Rodgers. That alone is a tough comparison for Smith but, while Rodgers had the chance to sit and learn for a few years before stepping into a talented offense, Smith was pressed into action as a rookie on a bad team.
Mark Sanchez’s QB Rating, yards passing, TD passes, and completion percentage has slowly crept up since his rookie year, but evidently it’s not trending up fast enough for some.
