Sour Grapes

But I am entitled. (I'm really a Giants fan anyway)

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 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, "What's your point Peyton?" "Well, why does Tom Brady get a better house than me?" God chuckled and said: "Peyton, my boy, that's not Tom's house, it's mine"
