Interesting sidebar - this match up between the Bears and the Colts is both perfect and difficult for my husband.
He was born in Aurora, IL and raised a Bears fan. His parents split and he lived the majority of his time in Minnesota - grew up hating the Vikings, but began following the Colts, while still keeping his love for da'Bears. He has grown to love Payton Manning and routes for him every chance he gets.
Over the years, it has been difficult here in NY to find anything with the Colts insignia on it - I do a lot of ordering from NFL Shop catalogs. hee hee.
So, this particular Super Bowl will be excrutiating for him - he said last night he guesses that he doesn't care which team wins, but doesn't know how he will feel during the game.
Deep down, I think he has such an interest in seeing Payton prove people wrong - setting records along the way - that he wants him to finally win a Super Bowl ring, but he will definitely be torn.
I am not a football fan, but I have to say that it was exciting watching the Colts come back last night and win it in the end!!!
I guess I am saying "GO COLTS"!!
