I am really, really, really pulling against the Panthers tonight. All of my family are Panther crazy. I even purchased three Panther shirts from Dick’s Sporting Goods on Saturday to give to members of my family who will be watching the game tonight and pulling for the Blue and Black.

I really like their coach, Ron Rivera. I appreciate the drive and talent – and really like – Greg Olsen, Luke Kuechly, and Josh Norman. I wish I was Cam Newton’s agent because that is one talented human being. He is a great looking young man with a smile that is off the charts. His physical abilities are seemingly limitless as he appears to be a “man among men” on a football field. His passes have vapor trails behind them. He MIGHT BE Superman. I just don’t like it that HE calls himself that more than anyone else.

If I was FORCED to bet money on this game, I would HAVE to place my hard-earned money on the Carolina Panthers to win, because I think they have the best talent and they simply have a vibe that seems unstoppable this season.

However on this particular Super Bowl Sunday I am hoping that the Denver Broncos put Cam Newton on his butt and keep him there all game long. I think there’s a chance that the Panthers will win this game in lopsided fashion. I’m hoping for the reverse of that. I don’t like Cam Newton for the same reasons that I don’t like Johnny Maziel.

So today I will be pulling for the class QB of the NFL to go out winning one more Super Bowl. I’m hopeful that he’ll hang up his cleats after this game. So for me…it’s the Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning for today.
Well you got your wish and Cam and his team apparently thought they had won before even stepping on the field!They played like chumps last night!I actually like P Manning and the Broncos are my 3rd favorite team so I'm kinda glad they won but it still stings to see the Panthers go down like that!Hopefully this will be an important lesson to him(Cam) because his head got waaaay tooo big for this game!I know Cam has a big ego and can be a polarizing figure but he is much better than Manziel off and on the field,I'm kind of insulted that he was put in the same category as that little punk!

or open an airline credit card just once in the past year or two. the average sign on bonus would have been enough for 2 flights at that rate. you wouldn't really know what the prices were since you didn't look them up
I'll admit I know nothing about travel points but those hotel prices would of been off the charts and I'm sure it would not have been that easy or cheap to get rooms there!
