It’s week 9 and the moment of truth has finally arrived. Although I’ve been trying to avoid this post all week, today I will answer the BIG question. Who is the sexier quarterback? Manning or Brady? My answer to this question is Tom Brady of course. How could deny those sexy eyes and that beautiful body. Tom Brady should win by Pass Him Over Here Hottie Award every week but I have to give other players a chance. Oh wait; shouldn't I be talking about something else? Ah yes, even at 38, Brett Farve continues to amaze me. Farve’s 82-yard game winning touchdown pass against
Nevertheless, if someone were to re-phrase the quarterback question and ask me which quarterback I respect in league the most; I would have to say Payton Manning. Brady may be the better quarterback right now but when it comes down to respect, Manning has all of my votes. This may sound a little bit shocking to some of you but my reasoning behind my choice is fairly simple. As I mentioned before, football is a team sport and when one person does something wrong it reflects poorly on the whole team. If you haven't figured out what I'm talking about yet let me put it this way. No one likes cheaters. Stealing signals is not OK in my book. And it’s not just me; people love to hate the Patriots. This isn't a recent phenomenon either. People hated the Patriots before the scandal came out. Now people have a valid reason to hate the Patriots. As you have seen throughout this post, I have no problem commending players such as Brett Farve and Payton Manning. I'm not just a Bears Fan, I'm a football fan and when a team insults the game of football by stealing signals, I have a hard time giving it a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
Geesh!! Enough with the Patriots already. Regardless of who wins the game this week, I might have to take a break and write about another team in my next post.
Happy Halloween Everybody

Seriously (as usual) on the same page with you on Farve. I totally respect and even love him and I'm a Vikings fan!! Now Vikings fans really hate Green Bay because we border their darn state!
So who's your pick to win this game?
I think the Pats are going to win...
I like the colt at home. I think they'll take it.
Brady's definitely sexier, I haven't decieded who's the better QB. Manning is so proficient...Brady has more superbowls.
If you think about it, Brady never had the same weapons that Manning had. Brady always won with role players on offense (Corey Dillon, Deion Branch - who's turned out to be a role players, Troy Brown, Kevin Faulk, to name a few). He's never really had a great supporting cast around him.
Mannings had Harrison, Wayne, Edge, now addi, and Dallas Clark who I think is way underrated.
I guess time will tell us who will be held up as the greater QB. One things for sure....they both are already better the FARVE!
BOO THAT MAN!
BOOOOOOOOO
