FINALLY!

Down 21-3 in the second quarter of the Indianapolis Colts-New England Patriots AFC Championship game, it looked to many throughout the state of Indiana that it would be another "next year" type of season for Peyton Manning and the gang. "This could be the best moment of my life, or it could be the worst" said IU sophomore Mike Rowe, an Indianapolis native who was rooting for the Colts to advance to the Super Bowl. But late-game heroics from Manning and a late interception by Indianapolis cornerback Marlon Jackson sealed a 38-34 Indianapolis victory and a trip to Miami for Super Bowl XLI.

A MIDWESTERN MATCHUP

·

INDIANAPOLIS -- Peyton Manning's head was down, but he had to sneak a peak. With less than 30 seconds left, the Colts holding on to a four-point lead and the ball in notorious comeback kid Tom Brady's hands, Manning looked up -- just in time to see Colts cornerback Marlon Jackson intercept Brady and send the Indianapolis Colts to the Super Bowl, sealing the biggest comeback in AFC Championship history. Manning and the Colts defeated the New England Patriots 38-34 after waiting years to get a shot at the Patriots at home in the RCA Dome, but it wasn't easy. "Our team went the hard way the whole year, but they hung tough," head coach Tony Dungy said.

Forget Paxil, try fashion

·

This semester, the OneStart gods have graced me with 9:30 a.m. classes four days a week, and it is seriously starting to affect my fashion sense. Everyone knows that my earliest wake-up time is 10 a.m. -- if that's when Ellen DeGeneres starts shaking her ass, that's when I do, too (one exception: early-morning sex). Without Ellen, I am left stumbling around my room, in the dark, throwing stylistic caution to the wind. (It's true: one morning I left wearing those flower-shaped pasties Lil' Kim once wore to an awards show. Ouch.)
