INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -A comeback, a drive, a legacy. And yes - finally - Peyton Manning gets his Super Bowl trip, too.

Football's most prolific quarterback put on a show for the ages Sunday, rallying the Indianapolis Colts from 18 points down and driving them 80 yards for the winning score in a wildly entertaining 38-34 victory over the New England Patriots.

The GOOD thing to come out of all this race reporting is that we don't have to hear it again after this. After this year, it will just be two coaches, regardless of skin color.

Remember the whole black QB thing? Those under 25 don't.

What about the 2 Caucasian quarterbacks that won the games for the Colts and the Bears?

BTW but it wasn't Dungys "great coaching skills" that won for the Colts. It was Payton Manning fear of hearing that he is a choker in the big game and the interception Tom Brady threw! Last week it was the kicker that won the day for the Colts. Where was Dungys coaching skills then?

One of our rock stations in Indy (X103 - 103.3 FM) has a morning show where the Emperor from Star Wars does Colts commentary before and after the games.

Click here and hear the Emperor's take on things. "UNLIMITED SUPERBOWL POWER! AAAHHH-HA-HA-HA-HAAAA!"

I like Peyton, but he is Satan to me for the next 2 weeks, and possibly the rest of my life if he beats my team

Da Bears. Da Colts.

I remember when we Indy folk had to choose between Da Bears and Da Bengals.

Hell, I just saw and old school guy from Indy on TV professing his undying loyalty to Da Bears.

Yeah, Jim Nance had to give his spiel on this when interviewing Dungy at the trophy presentation. But Dungy in a very classy way turned the conversation right back to congratulating the team and thanking the fans, etc.

Exactly what I was telling my wife when I was looking at an article with that type of junk in it.

I know, Da Bears and Colts are my 2 favorite teams.. I;m from NW Indiana sheesh... not sure who to root for in the SB... sheesh what a problem to have!!! I think that I'm going to root for Peyton since he has been in the league longer... Although I won't mind either way, Urlacher deserves a ring also...

Maybe we can quit with the "Belachick's a genius" and "Payton's can't win the 'big one'" comments.

An easy win??? When they were given two "gift" touchdowns - one by recovering a 4th down fumble in the end zone and the other via an interception?? That's the only way they managed to stay in the game until the end.

I am a die-hard Dallas fan (waiting until next year), but I LOVE Peyton Manning. He is a class act and deserves to go to a Super Bowl, something he proved without a doubt today. I also like Tom Brady, but he already has THREE Super Bowl rings. I'm glad for Tony Dungy and extra glad that I do not have to watch Bill Bellichek on the sidelines on Feburary 4.

Waaaaay too big a deal over that, and Dungy didn't look to comfortable with it, either.

I felt like both Dungy and Smith did a good job of turning the remarks away from race.

I'm in Tampa Bay and what we all said tonight was that Dungy proved it was Dungy's team that won Superbowl bowl XXXVII. Dungy would have been with the Bucs 5 years at that point (except the Glazers had dumped him the year before.) Now Dungy has been with Indianapolis 5 years and they're going to the Super Bowl. Dungy is a class act and I'm glad to see him finally make it to the SuperBowl.

Maybe you should learn how to spell first. Then you can try viewing one of the "Three Games to Glory" DVDs. There's three seasons of them. Have a nice day.

The owner and head coach both gave all credit to God!

Did He play quarterback or wide receiver?
