<p>So my <strong>Patriots</strong> lost to a better team yesterday for the second time in a row. </p>
<p>Although we couldn&#8217;t avenge ourselves this year, I&#8217;m thrilled that the game was exhilarating until the very end. </p>
<p>Although I&#8217;m glad the Patriots were able to secure another AFC title, we just couldn&#8217;t pierce through the Giants defense to score another life saving touch down. </p>
<p>To all my Giants friends (<del>as well the Tebow lovers who were upset with the Patriots for destroying the Broncos</del>&#8211;no, I&#8217;m glad we ended <em>Tebow Time!!!</em>), thanks for playing a great game and being good sports! </p>
<p>PS</p>
<p>See you next year! <img src='http://www.darnellclayton.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>After receiving a gift card to the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.mastgeneralstore.com/">Mast General Store</a> from my brother (it was a belated birthday gift), I decided to pick up a pair of 5 finger shoes (by <a target="_blank" href="http://vibramfivefingers.com/">Vibram</a> for those wondering). </p>
<p><a href="http://www.darnellclayton.com/wp-content/uploads/20110904-064035.jpg"><img src="http://www.darnellclayton.com/wp-content/uploads/20110904-064035.jpg" alt="20110904-064035.jpg" width="450" /></a></p>
<p>After testing them out in the store for 15 minutes, then running/walking/trotting upon running trails, streets and enormous water pipes in the park (<b>note:</b> kids don&#8217;t do the latter in as you could fall and crack your head open) over the next hour, I am now officially ashamed that I have worn traditional sneakers for so long instead of 5 finger shoes. </p>
<p>The only thing I don&#8217;t like about 5 finger shoes is that it takes a lot longer to put on than traditional sneakers (as you can see from the video below), but aside from that I&#8217;m probably only going to purchasing 5 finger shoes in the future due to how natural they feel upon my feet. </p>

<p>I&#8217;m planning on purchasing another pair (5 finger boots for those wondering). However if I could find a pair of 5 finger dress shoes, my feet would be complete! <img src='http://www.darnellclayton.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>Say it isn&#8217;t so. But I saw it with my own eyes.</p>
<blockquote><p>(<a href="http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/222718,012107colts.article">Chicago Sun-Times</a>) INDIANAPOLIS &#8212; A comeback, a drive, a legacy. And yes &#8212; finally &#8212; Peyton Manning gets his Super Bowl trip, too.</p>
<p>Football&#8217;s most prolific quarterback put on a show for the ages Sunday, rallying the Indianapolis Colts from 18 points down and driving them 80 yards for the winning score in a wildly entertaining 38-34 victory over the New England Patriots.</p></blockquote>
<p>It was a great game, either way, even though I was rooting for New England. Oh well, I guess they&#8217;ve won too many super bowls already (at least that is what my friends tell me).</p>
<p>Either way, I&#8217;m looking forward to watching the big game on TV. Now all I have to do is figure out who is hosting the party this year.</p>
