Some Dolphin News

So it is time for me to change it up lately I have been talking about the New York Giants and Colts and Saints. NFL of course has many other teams in the NFL and important people. The one story I found to be interesting to write about was the Miami Dolphins. Jason Taylor who is a liner back for the Miami Dolphins is 35. He just went under arthroscopic shoulder surgery. Unfortunately, for Jason he will be out for three months until he is able to get back to his workout routine. But, there is even more worse news for the this player on March 5^th he will be come as an unrestricted free agent and as the looks of it no one will be signing him. His agent Gary Wichard said he would be returning in May, which teams start, creating there teams and picking players. Taylor made a statement that he does want to return for his 14^th NFL season. When I heard that, I was rather shock because I did not even know Taylor was playing for the NFL that long. Taylor does want to go back to the Dolphins but vice president of the Dolphins has not made any statements or throughout is letting Taylor return. I am definitely going to be keeping up with this story to see what happens to Jason Taylor.

Upsetting news as a Giants Fan

So football season is over, although the games are over the gossip and drama and news is not. The first news that I heard this week lead me to complete shock. The New York Giants let go a very good and skilled player named Antonio Pierce. Antonio Pierce wore the number 58 on his Giant's jersey. Pierce signed with the Giants in 2005 as a free agent. He played for the NFL for 9 years. For the New York Giants he was a great linebacker. Unfortunately this season was a rough season for Pierce. For about maybe the last 5 games of the season Pierce was out due to injury dealing with a disc. Since Pierce is 31 years old and had this reoccurring injury that seems to have a difficult time healing the New York Giants manager and coaches found it the best to let him go. I was very upset to hear he was gone. Other people who I know that are also Giants fans disagreed with the move they did. Although I am upset I do see why the Giants made the move. A man at the age of 31 and with a injury that is having trouble healing I don't blame the Giants not wanting to keep him. The manager and coaches are looking out for who will make them due better next semester no injury is needed when they want to improve the team. Good Luck to Antonio Pierce in whatever you decided to do or go.

The Results

The Superbowl was something I was hoping for a better result. I was going for the Colts. Before the game began it started with the national anthem. There were two famous singers. First Queen Latifah sang. I thought her performance was very well done. The following singer was Carrie Underwood which I absolutely loved the performance. After the singing the two teams went to the middle of the field and the coin toss started and the big game began. As I mentioned last week I really wanted the Colts to win but unfortunately the Saints did. In the first half the Colts seem to be taken the game. Peyton Manning looked awesome like he always did. His throws were excellent and receivers were did a good job catching the ball. The Saints defense was decent but it was not the full potential. Colts were the first team to score. During the first quarter Colts scored 10 and Saints scored 0 points. The second quarter the Saints scored 6 points and the Colts scored 0. As halftime came around things became to change. First off, the half time show was done by the famous band called The Who. Then the second half of the game began the Saints looked stronger than ever and the Colts became weak. Peyton Manning throws were going no where. An Interception occurred where the Saints made a touch down the pretty much one would says that gave them the game. In the third quarter the Saints scored 10 and the Colts scored 7 points. As the last quarter came along the Saints scored 15 points Colts scored 0 which determined the Saints won the game. The final scored 31 to 17. Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints for winning their first Superbowl.

The Big Game

The big game is this Sunday Night!!!! I am excited but not super excited. I really wanted my New York Giants to go all the way but unfortunately that did not occur. This year the super bowl is taken place in South Florida. It is super bowl XL IV. This year the two teams that are competing is between the Colts and the Saints! Everyone I know has told me to go for the Saints considering they haven't been in the super bowl for a while. But, I do not listen to everyone else I am going for my Colts. One reason why I am going for the Colts its because Eli Manning brother Peyton Manning is on that team. Since I was younger I been following football and the Manning's family has great history in the NFL. Eli and Peyton father was a great football player for New Orleans back in the day. But, unfortunately Archie Manning did not get the right amount of fame he should of received. Eli Manning is another great quarterback. Now its Colts year and Peyton is another extremely good quarterback who truly has a lot of skills. Another reason why I am going for the Colts is because its another team I truly appreciated. The coach and the way the team works together in my opinion is has great success. This Sunday I know for sure I will watching the Super Bowl and saying go COLTS! This game is going to be a very good game to watch!
