Indianapolis

We all have those days that no matter how many days, months, or years pass we will never forget. For me, that day is July 30, 1945. I was only nineteen years old when I was aboard the USS Indianapolis we were on a top secret mission, none of us knew what we were hauling. Me and my men sat in a hazy room playing cards and drinking beer that Kurt stool from General Wake. We didn’t have to keep watch till morning. As I took the last drag on my cigar, there was a jerk and crash like sound,…

passes? Who has the most career wins by a quarterback? Who has the most passing yards? The most games with a perfect passer rating? Peyton Manning achieved all of this. Peyton Manning was a football player, and he led the Denver Broncos and the Indianapolis Colts to the Super Bowl. Peyton Manning had a good start to playing football in his early life. Peyton Manning has two brothers. Archie, his dad, played professional football. Peyton’s dad taught him how to play football and he loved it…

My 1st car On October 18th, my family and I went to the Indianapolis zoo for too behind the scenes tours. We bought two different ones earlier that year and it sure was the highlight of fall break. I was really quite that morning. I usually am quite when I am mad at anyone really. I just shut down so I don’t say anything I will regret. “Katlynn, Hurry up” said my dad “I am downstairs! Bernie is the one who is still asleep” I replied “BERNIEEEEE!!!!” My dad yelled, Bernie finally got up.…

of Achievement). He was expected to go the University of Mississippi, Ole Miss, but instead chose to go to the University of Tennessee( Academy of Achievement). Peyton was the number 1 overall pick in in 1998 NFL draft and he was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts and played there for 14 years( Academy of Achievement). Manning was then drafted by the Denver Broncos and played there till 2016 when he retired after winning Super Bowl 50 ( Academy of Achievement). Peyton Manning has the most passing…

Manning’s departure from the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Honestly, the only real consistency has been the Jacksonville Jaguars’ miserable performances, which haven't produced a season above .500 in nearly a decade! Presently, the Tennessee Titans have serious reasons for optimism. Between their young, promising 2nd-overall draft pick, Marcus Mariota, and coming off of their first season above .500 since 2011, there’s…

The Seattle Seahawks have a one of a kind coach named Pete Carroll. The Seahawks head coach likes to have fun during practice and in meetings and even has a mini basketball hoop in the practice facility that they can use in practice and sometimes he will stop meetings to have a shooting contest on it. He also sometimes likes to play blaring music to let the players have fun. Even though he encourages the players to be themselves in practice or in games he does not like when they start yelling or…

The Indianapolis Colts have been put in an extremely tough situation. After winning only a few games in the previous season the Colts now have the 1st overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft coming up at the end of April. As of right now Andrew Luck (senior quarterback at Stanford) looks like he has all of the tools to become the next great NFL quarterback, ironically analysts say that he is similar to Peyton Manning. This is Ironic because currently the leader and starting quarterback of the…

Is it science or cheating? That has been the big question for a lot of football fans for the previous four months. It only takes one word for football fans to either roll their eyes or start an argument. What is this I am talking about? Deflategate. What is Deflategate? Deflategate is an American football controversy. A team is suspected of cheating by lowering the air pressure of the football, making it easier to grip. According to Gregory DiLisi et al, “Athletes and physicists have since…

The age-old argument of Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning has been going on since Brady was drafted in 2000. Who is the better quarterback? Who’s the best quarterback to ever play in the NFL. It must be one of these two. My money is on Peyton Manning. I don’t want to take shine away from Brady, though, because both are spectacular in their own ways. Let me tell you why it must be Manning. I might be a bit of a bandwagon when it comes to Manning, but there is good reason for it. This man is a God…

a football field. In this paper, I will validate my point by comparing and contrasting four games without Tom, and four games with him from the current 2016 season. In the 2015 AFC Championship, the New England Patriots went on to battle the Indianapolis Colts, to win the conference championship, and would go on to win the super bowl. In that game, a Colts player had a concern about a Patriots football after intercepting one of Tom Brady’s passes. That concern was the air pressure in the ball…
