Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are the cream of the crop when considering quarterbacks in the NFL. They are two of the most coveted athletes in the history of American sports. The two greats are slated to make the hall of fame without a doubt. Tom Brady was selected number 199 in the 2000 draft, Peyton was selected on the other end of the spectrum at number one in the 1998 NFL draft. They are very similar in size, but they play the game differently. Tom Brady is the king of the post-season while…

Jets need to move fast and sign Ryan Fitzpatrick Given the fact that Ryan Fitzpatrick is better than Geno smith, the New York jets will make a huge blunder if they don’t re-sign him. That being said, it is high time they commit and make good their promise. They don’t have the luxury of time to allow the contract dispute to spill through the entire season since it would be unfair to both the team and Geno Smith. Signing Fitzpatrick will be in line with the NFL predictions against the spread…

At last month's NFL draft, very few people were concerned about Super Bowl betting odds and who will win the Superbowl. Instead, the focus was put on figuring out which future NFL players would become an essential part of determining who will win the Superbowl this year and in years to come. As the movie "Draft Day" showed football fans, there's a lot of insanity going on behind the scenes when the actual draft day arrives. It was this level of insanity that might have contributed to the Dallas…

Going into the 2016 season, the Dallas Cowboys look like the NFL’s team to beat. Personally, I have to give Jerry Jones all the credit for now his team is assembled. On offense, the Cowboys have gone with the approach that less is more on the offensive line. As we all know, teams with excellent offensive lines have a long history of losing. The 2007 Patriots were the perfect example of a team that had three Pro Bowl offensive linemen but somehow struggled to score points. The Jimmy Johnson era…

In 2014, Eli Manning was accused of equipment fraud. Eli Manning is the current New York Giants quarterback and is a two time Super Bowl MVP. However, three sports collectors came forward claiming, Manning conspired with his equipment managers to give away fake game-worn equipment. Instead, Manning kept the real equipment he wore during the 2008 Super Bowl as a souvenir. Many people consider the 2008 Super Bowl, as one of the biggest upsets in sports history. The plaintiffs provided electronic…

During the mid to late 1800s, many companies - such as the Henry Repeating Arms Company and Smith and Wesson - emerged, revolutionizing the firearms industry forever. Although most are still standing and producing firearms, one rises above the rest. The Winchester Repeating Arms company but how was it formed and who created it? Oliver Fisher Winchester was born on November 30th, 1810 in Boston Massachusetts to Samuel Winchester and Hannah Bates. He worked as a carpenter, ran a men’s shirt store…

As you read the title, maybe you’re wondering if I skipped over a simple typo or that I’m going to explain to you the true Manning of sports. The fact is that learning about sports couldn’t have come with a more influential sports mind than Peyton Manning. Peyton is considered one of the great quarterbacks, who dominated an era of NFL football as he won a Super bowl and several MVP trophies. I had the pleasure this summer to be invited to the Argus Leader South Dakota Sports Awards Banquet,…

exciting pregame festivities. I mostly sat around and watched TV until it was time to go to the game. When it was time to go I put on my Peyton Manning jersey. Peyton Manning had always been my favorite football player even though he played for the Colts, but now since he played for my favorite team it was the best of both worlds. We got into the minivan and started on our route to the game. As the stadium got closer and closer my anticipation was going through the roof. When we got to the…

The Chiefs and the Colts have both been good teams in the last three years both teams have had just about the same record. The Colts have made the playoffs 2 of the last 3 years and the Chiefs have made it 2 of the last 3 years. The Chiefs have had a better record, a better quarterback, and a better defense when the Chiefs are compared to the Colts in the last two year. The Chiefs record is 13 and 6 since the beginning of last year. The Chiefs had a good enough record last season to be able to…
