Wherever You Are Johnny U ...
Sunday, January 21, 2007
The legend in my family is that my mother delayed my birth on a Sunday afternoon many decades ago to watch Johnny Unitas lead the Baltimore Colts in an important game. I've never wanted to verify the story. It's been too rich. Then I went and married into a Patriots' family. The Colts and the Pats wasn't a rivalry; it was completely one-sided. The Patriots won all the games that counted. Still I picked the Colts, year after year, in recent years. I had lost some faith in recent months, but today I believe again. Who couldn't have believed?! What a game. Tom Jackson said in ESPN tonight that it's not a rivalry until both sides win. It's a rivalry now. And, with New Orleans out, a clear someone to root for in the Super Bowl: Peyton Manning. Go Colts!
