What a weekend in the sports world, and I’m not saying that just because of the Super Bowl. There were all types of great sports on this weekend. It was a man’s dream.
Unfortunately, it’s Monday morning (yawn). Nothing but a long week staring you right in the face. It sucks. I’m not ready to surrender the memories of this weekend just yet.
Unathletic has put together the top 5 Epic Performances of the Weekend to get you through this morning…
5.) Missouri vs. Kansas
No. 4 Missouri rallies past No. 8 Kansas on Saturday night. Down 8, three minutes left… no problem, man. Big Ups to Marcus Denmon who scored 9 points in the final two minutes, while Mizzou went on an 11-0 run to win the game.
4.) Northern Iowa vs. Creighton
What a tremendous ending to this game! Have to give it to Northern Iowa, but Creighton helped the matter. This game was a sniff that we’re getting close to March Madness.
3.) Manchester United vs. Chelsea
Down 3-0 — no problem, man. Manchester United showed their class by leveling with Chelsea after falling behind 3 goals. Chelsea fans were completely disheartened. Epic performance, epic game.
2.) Aaron Rodgers wins MVP
Rodgers earned 48 votes to two for New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees in balloting by a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the NFL. The Packers star is the first Green Bay player honored since Brett Favre concluded a run of three straight seasons as MVP in 1997. Have to give A-Rodg some love here for an epic win.
1.) New York Giants vs. New England Patriots
I’m having a hard time trying to put my finger on this game… It was good, but it wasn’t good. It had a couple nice moments, but for the most part it was pretty mundane. Congrats to the Giants. You can’t spell elite without ELI!
