The Message

Yesterday, as in each and every day in life, there was a lesson being taught for the entire world to quietly comprehend.


This lesson took place at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas during Super Bowl XLV, a football game played between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers.

BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW
Pittsburgh, led by celebrated quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, was all but expected to defeat Green Bay with relative ease and proudly walk away with the the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Moreover, Green Bay had barely reached the playoffs this season.

BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW

Not only was Pittsburgh anchored by a proven quarterback who had led his team to their third Super Bowl appearance [winning both previous contests] in the past 6 seasons, but, most importantly, Green Bay was led by the basically unknown Aaron Rodgers, who played in the shadows of former Packer QB Brett Favre - one of the greatest to ever man the position.

In fact, if you let the experts tell it, as they did in the weeks leading up to Super Bowl Sunday, Green Bay might as well not even bother to show up to the game.

BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW

Well, they did.

The Packers showed up and showed out, and walked away as newly-crowned Super Bowl Champions.

GREEN AND YELLOW, GREEN AND YELLOW

In other NFL news, New England Patriots star quarterback Tom Brady was unanimously named 2010-11 NFL's Most Valuable Player award. Brady received all 50 votes.

Somehow, I find it hard to believe that Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick wasn't worthy of a single vote.

Hmm. Again, there is a message in everything.

It's up to you and I to decode it.
