Ahhhhhh, Super Bowl Sunday, the one time of year, when I get to see all my old friends, and talk about how the year has treated us. Stories are shared, predictions are made, and great times are had by all.

I have a lawyer friend, one of my best friends actually (I highly recommend finding one as well!), who has hosted a Super Bowl Party at his parents house for as long as I can remember. He is now lawyer-ing in Regina, but still hosts the party at his parents house, and thanks to Mur and Shur, allowing us to continue this great tradition, that is where I will be on Sunday.

So here is a rundown of how the day is going to go:

Noon - Off to the local beverage dealer to buy one of these -  That, my friends, is a Texas Mickey (A tradition that was started a couple of years ago.)

12:30 - A toast to the boys, then a presentation to the winner of our Fantasy Football League, (Congrats Pauley, don't get used to it! That title is mine next year.)

12:45 till 5 - Visiting, drinks, and pre game.

5 till about 10 ish - The funnest time in Gary's life, as well, trying to take mental notes of all the funny stories, and things that have happened over the course of the day, since the beverages will have kicked in by that time, and pieceing the day together, the following day, is almost as fun. The hangover, is the exact opposite of the day, I usually end up feeling like former Leafs goalie Allan Bester after a game, you know, seen more rubber than a dead skunk on the Trans Canada Highway? That's how my body feels.

(Here's a sweet Bester video for all you kids who don't remember him, click on him down there.)

So that's my day, but let's get to the real reason we are here. First things first, Peyton Manning is the greatest QB of all time. If you don't agree, think about this. Peyton will last for a very long time, because he never gets touched, thanks to his unbelievable ability to avoid the rush, and get the ball away before trouble finds him. So, if you don't think he is the greatest yet, give him a couple more years, and you won't even have an argument. As well, the guy is hilarious!!! Remember this? (Click the bears attacking Peyton for the clip.)

With that in mind, the Saints will come out guns a blazin, and take a comfy lead into halftime. Then, Peyton Manning will show everyone exactly why he is the greatest quarterback in the history of football.

Just like in the games leading up to the big dance, he will start slow, taking notes, reading the different defensive packages, adjusting, then, eventually, probably by the second possession of the second half, Manning will start exposing the weaknesses that he discovered, and the comeback will be on.

Eventually, Peyton will find Dallas Clark with about 4 minutes left, to put the nail in the coffin, giving the Colts a 14 point cushion, and securing Peyton's spot at the top of Mount QB.

My man Big C thinks Robert Meachum will be the games MVP, I laughed at him.

Here's the rundown:

MVP - Manning

Final Score Colts 37 - Saints 30

Gary's number of beverages consumed - 38. Looks like I win!

I honestly wish that everyone in the world, can find a party, as awesome and fantastic as the Big Verno Party is, I am truley so lucky to be a part of this wonderful event.
