Ok we all know Peyton is out for who knows how long. But listening to 1070 someone came on and told Dokitch (sp?) that the Colts players and fans deserved this. (This being Manning's injury) Why do we deserve it? Because of this...
"Our Peyton who art in Indy hallowed be thy arm. Thy bowl will come, it will be won in Miami as it was on 07. Give us this Sunday our weekly win. And give us our many touchdowns, but don't let the evil Jets score against us. Lead us not into frustration, but deliver us a Super Bowl. For thine is the dynasty, the NFL's best, and the glory of Indy forever..."
Ok, I get it. I GET IT. It's a knock off of the Lord's Prayer. People are really creative. But to say someone deserves a serious injury is asinine.
And upon further googling...I've found we're not the only creative fans...
Our Brady, who art in Foxborough, hallowed be thy arm. Thy bowl will come, it will be won, in Dallas as it is in New England. Give us this Sunday, our weekly win, and give us many touchdown passes, but do not let the Jets pass against us. Lead us not into frustration, but deliver us to the valley of the sun. For thine is the MVP, the best of the AFC, and the glory of the Patriots, now and forever, AMEN!! GO PATS!
(Sorry-formatting sucks.) Nonetheless, I guess the same people would say Brady had his injury a few seasons back coming too.
I'm side eying on this big time right now. We all know how hyped up I get on sports talk so no one is shocked by my anger I'm sure. hahaha
Can I get a hell yeah for the fact that hating the Jets was in both things? (Sorry Jets fans!)
Re: Thoughts?
Ha! That was my first thought when reading this!
I can't stand when something bad happens and people act as if God is out to intentionally punish a person or group of people. See also Michele Bachman's comments regarding Hurricane Irene being a punishment for the actions of Obama's administration. Ridiculous, and ignorant, if you ask me! As a Pats fan, I clearly have no love for Peyton, but he seems like a good person, and even if he's not, nobody "deserves" to get injured.

What are you looking at?
I'm not sure either.
And I agree with Katie, down to the Irene comment.

Oh! Oh! I can answer this one - ME
(Sorry Kari, I know I jumped ship, but I'm in love with Mark Sanchez, and think Peyton has gotten pretty whiny when he doesn't get his way. I've officially been turned, and have been that way for two seasons now!)
