Array ( [sid] => 131978 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => SUPER BOWL XLI (Bears vs. Colts) [time] => 2007-02-22 07:05:02 [hometext] => A little late in finishing this one. I'm not sure whats wrong with it but I have a nagging thought that something is... [bodytext] => As darkness covered and the air was cold,
Monument Circle was a joy to behold,
Blue illumination drifted over the streets,
Voices rose and tears were sweet,
The Hoosier State was on the map,
All news channels played recaps,
The Indianapolis Colts played with heart,
As did the Chicago Bears from the start,
Super Bowl forty-one was Indiana’s first,
Happy Hoosiers were unrehearsed,
Florida State hosted The Bowl,
The Bears and Colts so proud to go,
The game was down and then it was up,
Bears and Colts both strutting their stuff,
Evenly matched team for team,
Even the coaches were living their dream,
Both men were black ~ Both men were proud,
Both coaches deserved ~ The Super Bowl crowd,
So history was made in more than one way,
Equality and Humanity ~ Shook hands and played,
A game is a game ~ And men are men,
And that’s all that matters in the end.
~~~
Every reporter was at this game,
All of their questions were the same,
Interviewed players lacked for words,
It didn’t matter they couldn’t be heard,
Cheering crowds and family shouts,
Happiness reigned without a doubt,
Each man spoke with voices of awe,
Refreshing to see what the viewers saw,
Pride not in self but for the next man,
And all showed loyalty for their fans,
Hoosiers at home felt a deeper pride,
As the crowds cheered and cried,
No riots occurred on this night,
So, the Colts and Bears ~ Both got it right.

great just the way it is...with the right music and the appropriate teams names in place, this write could be used at any dynamic sporting event...
