One of the advantages of having multi media is you can feel like you’re in Indy and like you’re going to be a busy reporter for the Indianapolis Star. America will enjoy several championship bouts over the weekend from Indy. Such as Northwestern and my uncle’s favorite team, the Buckeyes, at the Luke. The Buckeyes and the Cats will battle for Big 10 supremacy, and on the field, whoever earns the crown will be given Roses, because if you win the Big 10 you are often saddled with a bunch of roses, imitating California dreaming. Which means the recipient of the Big 10 title will play at the Rose Bowl. Twenty four hours after the Big 10 battle is over, it’s time for On Wisconsin, Jonathan Taylor, and the Indianapolis Colts to bury the Texans and send them back to Texas without a fiddle in the band. This would leave the Colts at 10-4, and it’s their chance to tell Tennessee: “not so fast, my friend.” And it’s also a chance for Philip to try and equal his predecessor before Andrew Luck, Peyton William Manning, with a Super Bowl title. This will be the year of the horse, except for Denver, who is burying itself in horse manure this year. Some of the fault for Denver lies at the hooves of Drew Lock, who has a tendency to lock the stable on himself.
Indianapolis is a prime place for championships to be won, because the Bucks and Cats are going to play in the house that Peyton helped build. The players to watch for on Ohio State are Chris Olave and quarterback Justin Fields, because as Gus Johnson would say, “Olave is too sweet.” And roaming the sidelines for Fox TV and will be the All American Girl, according to Gus Johnson, Jenny Taft. Northwestern has a Hoosier connection. Peyton Ramsey used to be a quarterback for the Indiana Hoosiers. The last time that Northwestern went to the Rose Bowl was in 1995 when I lived in Chicago, and little did I know, that Pat Fitzgerald would be a head coach. He was a linebacker then.
