God likes Peyton Manning but loves the Patriots

This ol' joke is all over the internet, but I read it for the first time this morning. I thought I'd share it with you guys for a nice laugh:

Peyton Manning, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Colts flag in the window.

“This house is yours for eternity, Peyton,” said God.

“This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here.” Peyton felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.

On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a 3-story mansion with a Silver and blue sidewalk, a 50-foot tall flagpole with an enormous Patriots logo flag, and in every window, a New England Patriots towel.

Peyton looked at God and said, “God, I’m not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I hold many NFL records, and I even went to the Hall of Fame.”

God said “So what’s your point Peyton?”

“Well, why does Tom Brady get a better house than me?”

God chuckled, and said: “Peyton, that’s not Tom’s house, it’s mine.”

Amen to that.

As much as I hate Rex Ryan's non-stop yapping, I would hate even more for Tom Brady to get another ring. I hope gang green manages to pull out all the stops this weekend to upset the Patriots.
