If Eli looked that sad, can you imagine how big bro’ Peyton must have been feeling.

Didn’t stay up for the Superbowl last night? Good choice, because, barring an overwhelmingly dominant performance by the Seattle Seahawks in a 43-8 victory, you didn’t miss a whole lot. So one-sided was the contest, in fact, that admiration for the victors by those commenting on the game on Twitter was soon exceeded by pity for the losing Broncos when it became evident very early on that it was going to be a landslide. If anything summed up the night for the Broncos, it was this GIF of Peyton Manning’s younger brother Eli watching on with only minutes left during the fourth quarter… eligif Gif via @cjzero … while as an awful lot of you pointed out to us on Facebook and Twitter in the aftermath of last night’s game, maybe Homer was right all along… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjc3P8bAIeg&feature=youtu.be Oh yeah, and congratulations to the Seahawks. Great win guys.
