A Great Wrong Has Finally Been Righted


It may have took 45 years, but a great wrong has finally been righted when Jerry Kramer of Lombardi’s power sweep and the block that beat the Cowboys in the Ice Bowl (sorry Ken Bowman) fame has been finally elected to the NFL Hall of Fame today.

It couldn’t have happened to a more deserving player. Jerry Kramer is the 10th player elected to the Hall from the 1962 team that is considered the greatest team of all time led by the greatest coach of all time, Vince Lombardi.

Super Bowl Prediction and Hall of Fame Thoughts

Superman Cam
The smart money is on the Carolina Panthers to win Super Bowl 50. If I was actually putting money down I would have to back the Panthers even though I don't like Cam Newton.

However, Super Bowl 50 has a Super Bowl III feel to me, if not to anyone else in punditry or the rest of the civilized world for that matter. The last line I've seen has the Panthers favored by 5.5 points and not many people are picking the Broncos.

For those of you born after 1980 the Packers had won the first two Super Bowls pretty handily and the Baltimore Colts (yes, there was a team in Baltimore before the Browns moved in the middle of the night to become the Ravens) were the Panthers of 1968-69 going 13-1 behind backup quarterback Earl Morrall, who had taken over for the legendary future Hall of Famer Johnny Unitas, who had injured his passing arm in the preseason.

FROM THE SUBLIME TO THE RIDICULOUS, PART YEDI

(What language is Yedi? Hint, I rip from today's news)


The Packers new Golden Girls the Buege Triplets. Top that Bears
THE SUBLIME:

I didn't die last week and lost four pounds.
