Here is a statistic that I think says it all: When the #1 overall defense in the NFL plays in the Superbowl they have a 10-2 record. The Broncos last night became that 10th win. I am glad to see Peyton win what I hope is his final game, riding off into the sunset as a champion. Meanwhile, Cam Newton is getting blasted for walking off the podium during his postgame press conference. Cam has always been a sore loser.... the only difference this year is that Cam did not lose very much. Cam did say that if people wanted him to stop celebrating in their faces on the football field, then they should stop him. Mr. Miller... mission accomplished.

No one will ever quite beat Jerome "The Bus" Bettis' exit from the NFL. Winning Superbowl XL in his hometown of Detroit with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Peyton Manning has the opportunity to pull off something close by winning today. I have to say I would be pretty disappointed if Manning wins today, riding on the back of the Broncos' defense and then comes back next season as a depleted quarterback.
Yesterday we had a great early afternoon workout before attending a co-worker's wedding. We got home late so I did not post. Today is a day off from the weights to sit and enjoy the Superbowl.

Trump came in second in Iowa.... and of course he cannot handle that. How did that happen?! Of course Ted Cruz must've cheated?! Was there a Tweet by the Cruz campaign saying that Ben Carson might be dropping out? Yes. Was that false? Yes. Carson was flying from Iowa to Florida for a "fresh change of clothes"?! Did that effect the course of the Iowa Caucuses?! Probably not. But Trump wants a whole new Iowa caucus!
My friends and I compared Trump to North Korea. "No one is paying attention to us! Someone set off a hydrogen bomb, damn it!" Or as my buddy Mike corrected me, "Lets SAY we set off a hydrogen bomb but really just throw 3000 packs of Pop-Rocks into a vat of Diet Coke." The man is a megalomaniac.

I wonder if Trump had finished first in Iowa if he would be so impressed with Cruz finishing #2?! What am I talking about? I don't need to wonder.... I KNOW he would be gloating and rubbing everyone's nose in his victory. I am not excited about Ted Cruz by any stretch of the imagination... but at least Trump isn't all over the news today! What a nice break!

The Iowa Caucuses are today. Maybe, just maybe some of the candidates will be eliminated from the Presidential process. Right now we are down to Hilary, Bernie and O'Malley on the Democratic side. I cannot even tell you how many are actually left for the GOP?! Then there is Michael Bloomberg who is considering an independent run. It seems that voters from both parties don't like that guy... but maybe that means the undecided independents stuck in the middle will? We will see what happens when the dust settles in Iowa, I guess?!
