Phyllis Wheatley CPR

What I've learn from class discussion....

Action isn't her thing; ideas are. She wants to praise things and talk about ideas, like Christianity, salvation, history.  Also there's a little narrative in her poem though, when the speaker writes, "brought me from my pagan land." So, the speaker is a slave that was brought from Africa to America because of  "mercy." And it's mercy that converts the Wheatley to Christianity, which she knew nothing about in Africa. Although people view her race in America as negatively and as "diabolic dye" the poem reflects her belief that anyone, even "Negroes," can be saved by joining the religion  Christianity. 

Peyton Manning and the Broncos.(FC)

I have been a Peyton Manning fan for at least eight years. Not only is he my favorite athlete, he is the best Quarterback of all-time. Peyton is also one of the smartest quarterbacks in the NFL he can read defense before he snaps the ball, he can pick up defenses before the ball is snap, and can even get the ball out to his recovers before the blitz comes. According to www.bleacherreaport.com, Manning completion rating for this season already, against blitz's is 49.95%. Manning had a huge game against the Baltimore Ravens, that has not been done since the 60's throw 7 TD's in one game.

Peyton is coming into this season as his second year as the Denver Broncos quarterback. Over the past season they're has been a lot of questions based on if Peyton has recovered from his neck surgery.  That was not a question last week, when Manning threw for 462 yards, 27-of-42 with 7 TD's. With Manning having multiple threats at wide receiver, the Ravens could not slow him down. This season Peyton Manning will when the Super Bowl and MVP!
