Overall it was a positive day. As far as the game is concerned, I was not too happy how it turned out. There were a lot of calls that just did not make sense. Obviously the controversial catch sticks out. I just want to sit down with the referee crew for coffee and just have them give me one reason or one thing they saw that made them rule it incomplete. Then there were the drops. How many money balls did Cam throw (mainly to Cotchery) that were just poorly handled? Tolbert with two turnovers as well. Carolina deserved to lose with how they played. Not to mention there were two times (once with Ginn and once with Cam) where they just stared at fumbles they could have fallen on. I know I'm stating a lot of things that have been repeated on social media and other forums endlessly since last night, but what I witnessed yesterday just blows my mind and, quite honestly, doesn't make sense.
Von Miller winning MVP, however, did make sense. I could have sworn they were going to give it to Peyton whether he had 1 passing yard or 500. Miller played out of his mind though and I congratulate him on the MVP. Very well-deserved. In the end, another Super Bowl has come and gone leaving many frustrated and many joyous. The Super Bowl will always be one of my favorite days of the year and despite the way the game ended up yesterday I was still positive and it was still fun as always.
It's time to keep winning college basketball and work our way into MLB Spring Training. I never bet MLB in the past. I just played some fantasy and used that time to just enjoy the game of baseball and take a break from betting. However this year might be different. I am thinking of learning how to gauge market movement and find ways to profit big time from baseball. In the meantime, college basketball plays will still be posted and, as always, BOL guys. Thanks for a great NFL Season.
