Colts WIN, pundits lose….
As I rolled out of the rack Sunday morning I stretched, and found myself with a perma-grin. Why you might ask, well for one my wonderful wife started the coffee, which I could smell throughout the house, but my elation revolved more around listening to all of the NFL analysts give their apologies to the Indianapolis Colts. After listening to the pundits bash the Colts Offense who would be dominated by Ray Lewis and the Gang, plus their warning order to the Colts Defense citing their obvious fluke run stoppage of Larry Johnson the week prior, I was ready to watch the crow eating extravaganza.
There I was sitting on my couch, enjoying coffee and surfing around from channel to channel, and then I started thinking about our very own industry pundits, much like the NFL analysts they are extremely knowledgeable, but stats and predictions can only take you so far, see above paragraph. Planning, scheming, leadership, and execution is where the rubber meets the road at any company. So the next time you hear recruiting “doom and gloom” stories from your favorite pundit(s), use the information to better equip your team for a win, instead of hanging your head and waiting for the inevitable loss.
On another note:
Matt, first round of drinks are on you at the next conference, and Joel I believe there is some left-over crow available, just ask Dan, Boomer, or Shannon.

I’ll be vindicated when they choke away another season at home to the Pats. Does your wife add Pepto to that coffee? If not, she’ll have to.
If you had told me that manning was going to go scoreless I would have trippled the bet. But, it is what it is. You got me. Drinks on me. Pats go to the big show.
Still showin’ no love.. and yes I enjoy the minty after taste of the pink stuff in my joe, got use to it after the OSU debacle.
