Peyton Manning is the most overrated and overhyoed player...in the postseason.
Seriously, how did he get the MVP with these stats: 25/38 (65%, solid), 247 yards (average 6.5 yards a pass, bad), one touchdown (considering he's Peyton fucking Manning, you'd expect more, hell his brother had more touchdowns in his Super Bowl appearance, and Eli is terrible!), one interception, which equates into an 81.7. Normally, that's seen a just meh, but this is Peyton Manning we're talking about, so there's more weight.
Dominic Rhodes ran for 113 yards on 21 carries (5.3 yards a carry, on the Bears defense!) and touchdown, yet he didn't get the MVP?

Don't get me wrong, I was glad Peyton got his ring, since he deserved it. But his victory isn't as good as the media says.
Don't forget, he was playing against an incredibly overrated Bears team that was led by Rex Grossman. If you gave any team two weeks to prepare against that, they're going to crush them.
Overall rating for Super Bowl XLI: 3/10.
Pros:
-Peyton gets his ring
-Grossman gets raped
Cons:
-Peyton is one of, if not the, most undeserving MVP in Super Bowl history.
-Rain made the game sloppy.
-06-07 Bears are one of the worst teams to make the Super Bowl.

Get the Super Bowl XLI mug.Terrible videogame company. If they didn't buy out all of their competition, they would of been out of business years ago due to their terrible games and that their alternatives always outdo them. Graphics are decent (just that), but the gameplay is completely broken. It's almost impossible to blow out the CPU because of blatant rubberbanding. I remember when playing NBA Live 05, I was destroying their golden boys the Spurs with the Jazz (who were shitty in that game). But in the 4th quarter, the Spurs were nailing shots even with 3 guys around them, while I missed all my shots (including SLAM DUNKS) even if I was wide open. Tim Duncan gets a basket from half-court with 1 second remaining. How many times do you see that in real life? Simulating games is utterly useless. Everytime I've simulated against the Spurs/Pistons, they always either blow out my team or conveniently outscores my team by 20+ in the 4th quarter.
EA, just because you're monopoly does not mean you're free from criticisms from angry customers such as myself. Until you actually focus on the gameplay (it is a VIDEOGAME after all) instead of graphics (which aren't even that good anyway) we, the customers, will refuse to purchase any of your shitty products (that's the same every year except for roster updates. Why not just give out roster updates via Xbox Live/PlayStation Network for free? Oh yeah, you're greedy monopolists) and buy products from alternative companies such as 2K Interactive who actually care about their customers by FOCUSING ON THE GAMEPLAY. You have to earn our money by putting EFFORT into your games.

Get the EA Sports mug.Favre, his fans, and the media can eat their shit now.
Aaron Rodgers: 341/536 (63.6%), 4,308 yards (7.53 yards), longest 71, 28 touchdowns, 13 interceptions, sacked 34 times, 93.8 passer rating.
Notes: The Packers defense was terrible this year, their o-line not performing well, Ryan Grant struggled, and Greg Jennings/Donald Driver are nowhere near as good as Laveranues Coles and Jerricho Cotchery.
Brett Favre: 343/522 (65.7%), 3,472 (6.65 yards), longest 56, 22 touchdowns, 22 interceptions, sacked 30 times, 81 passer rating.
Notes: Granted Favre had a better completion percentage, his total and average passing yards is noticeably lower than Rodgers (and Favre had a better wide receivers unit). Favre had less touchdowns than Rodgers and more interceptions.
Packers Nation, stop blaming Rodgers for the poor season. If the Packers improve their defense in the offseason, they're going to be the team to watch out for.

Get the Aaron Rodgers mug.I dislike George Bush as much as the next guy, but most of his criticisms are either rhetorical or flat out wrong. I'm going to cut out the stuff we've heard over and over.
1. Turned the largest US surplus into the largest deficit in American history, then gives tax cuts when he should be raising taxes to get more money for the country. (And of course, he only gives tax cuts to all of his rich buddies.)
Raising taxes isn't going to fix the economy at the rate we're spending you dumb shit. Anyone who thinks the tax cuts is what caused the recession knows nothing about even basic economics. What cause the recession is the massive spending when the government doesn't the money. It's so bad they raid the Social Security (more reasons why it sucks), borrow from China, or just print money. You know who can cut the spending? Congress. Guess who controls Congress: Democrats. When you cut taxes, people have more money in their pockets to invest into the economy. The government doesn't regulate the economy because this is not communism. If we ever cut spending, we may as well cut taxes.
6. Passes "Clean Air Act" which actually makes the air dirtier.
That and the act is a stupid idea anyway.
8. Quits the Kyoto Protocol because it would make his rich buddies actually spend some money to reduce global warming, and God forbid anyone has to spend money.
The Kyoto Protocol does three stupid things: Work with the United Nations, spend more fucking money despite the recession, and follow environmentalism when there's nothing wrong with the damn planet.
9. Throws ultimatums at the American people that only a complete idiot could fall for (and a lot have) like "You're with us or you're with the terrorists" and basically just gets America to be loyal to him out of fear.
Then explain why his approval rating is one of the lowest since Truman.
11. Has said enough stupid things to fill 265 pages of "Bushisms" books.
When Clinton fucked up, did we ever call it a "Clintonism"? No, we just called him a dumbass (if they weren't, I sure as hell was).
12. Gets elected into office after losing by over 10,000 votes. Do you think it's a coincidence that his brother was the governor of the state that the whole election depended on in 2000??
Which is precisely there shouldn't be democracies: only benevolent totalitarianism.

Get the George Bush mug.On behalf of all Americans I wish to apologize for the 1953 coup d'état of Mohammad Mossadeq and replacing his fairly elected administration with the hated Shah that ruled with an iron fist because Mossadeq simply nationalized his nation's oil.

Get the iran mug.When it's not ran by the government, it's called a Ponzi scheme. When it is ran by the government, it's called Social Security.

Get the Social Security mug.There are way too many idiots in this world that believes whatever textbooks say.
"One of the greatest presidents ever."
Abraham Lincoln is one of our worst presidents.
"Fought for the concept that secession was unconstitutional (as it violated the concept of democracy--if the guy you voted for lost, you have to deal with it) and aided in the disestablishment of the institution of slavery."
The Confederacy fought against Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus, first amendment rights, tenth amendment rights, unfair taxes and his alienating of the Southern states. There is nothing unconstitutional about secession. Nowhere in the Constitution does it say states can not secede. The Founding Fathers cherished liberty, not democracy. Also, Lincoln's beliefs on slavery were inconsistent, but his white supremacy was consistent.
"Though the Hartford Convention did consider secession, it was not the main focus of the agenda, and was political suicide for the Federalists."
Real patriots who fight against their oppressive governments don't give a shit about "political suicide". That's exactly what the Southern states did.
"Moreover, limiting free speech during times of war is not something unique, as it has happened many times since Lincoln's day."
How is this excusable?
"It should also be noted, secession is mentioned nowhere in the Constitution as a right, it is mentioned in the Declaration of Independance, but that was not a legal document. Therefore he didn't deny anyone anything unusual."
The Constitution is called THE SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND for a reason. You need to read the tenth amendment, which states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Since secession is mentioned nowhere in the Constitution, this little amendment that has been constantly ignored kicked in.

Abraham Lincoln's assassination was justified for acts of treason, lying after promising to uphold the Constitution, war crimes and being responsible for the slaughter of many innocent Americans for his own selfish political gains. The Confederacy were true patriots who fought for the document the Founding Fathers risked their lives for and followed their wisdom. Thomas Jefferson once said if we truly want freedom, there must be armed rebellion every twenty or so years to keep the government in check.
