We all know a hater- either you’re the hater or the guy next to you is. When it comes to sports haters, they are the most annoying people in the room. With the Super Bowl coming up there will be haters in the atmosphere saying how much they detest Peyton Manning, and how they pray to the Football Gods that Manning doesn’t win another ring on February 2nd. Haters don’t tend to have legitimate reasons as to why they hate a player so much. They say ridiculous things like “look at him man, he’s so cocky! Ughhh!” They get upset just looking at the person, as if Peyton had made them eat yellow snow when they were five. Haters even go to the furthest extreme of hate and become a fan of the opposing team. Every new Seahawks “fan” will be known as a hater- yes that means you. Whatever a haters reason is to hate on a great player, they need to remember that numbers do not lie and that denial is dead.
Peyton hasn’t gotten this far because of luck; the man knows what he’s doing. He’s thrown 55 touchdowns (an NFL Record) this season with only 10 interceptions, and aside from 2004 this has been his best season. He just beat Tom Brady to get to the big stage- it doesn’t get any realer than that. Going into the Super Bowl, Manning has the upper hand. He is going to be facing an inexperienced team on the big stage, and he is more than likely going to win ring number two. I mean hey, who am I to diminish the haters’ voice during the game though? Let’s go Seahawks, screw you Peyton! I guess I can be a hater too.
Prediction: Denver 31, Seattle 21
The Seahawks do not have enough offense to keep pace with Denver; 120 yards passing from Wilson will not be good enough in this one.
For Super Bowl XLVIII, let’s leave the haters out of it
