Re: Colts fan here, I come in peace
Thanks Colts fan! When I was 8 yrs old, my family moved to Baltimore (long time ago) My heart remained with the Saints and I also cheered for the home team here, the Colts. My step dad LOVED the Colts like a maniac. Bert Jones, lydell mitchel...man...
Then the Colts left and I had only the Saints again. Peyton will go down as the greatest QB in modern history (unless Brees can win more games than anyone in the next 10 years) I do hope that no players get hurt, and that it is a great game. |

Hi everyone! Colts fan here - Peace
First of all I am a Colts fan and I think you will soon find out that I am not the trolling kind of fan.
Congratulations on your season! I called into the NFL Network earlier this year when we were both undefeated, the day after the Patriots/Saints game. I talked with Rich Gannon and Adam Shine about this possible matchup. I told them that I didn’t think either team would go undefeated and that anything could happen, but I like the matchup between the Colts and the Saints, if this game were to ever happen. And now, here we are. Can I be the first fan to say that this is a little awkward? Peyton and Reggie are playing their hometown team, with Addai just down the road in Houston. Our top 3 guys on offense are from your area. To top it off, I can’t find a single reason not to like your team or your fans. Everyone is picking my Colts to win and I prefer being the underdog. This should be a great game and it could go back in forth all day long. If Powers plays then I think we will hold your receivers in check as well or better than anyone has all year. The odd stat is how many times Drew Brees has had 200 yards passing and three or more TD’s. Your defense has definitely been opportunistic getting turnovers and putting points on the board once you get those turnovers. Maybe this will be the key stat in the game. Sentimentally, you guys are the favorites for obvious reasons. What your city has been through and to get here is what they write stories and make movies about. What I fear is that my squeaky clean Colts will be labeled the big bad Colts in these stories, if the Saints were to go on and win. Maybe one of you will reply to this post in a way to make me not like your team. Actually I am asking for you to make me not like you somehow. Talk some trash to me. Get me worked up. It’s a whole lot more fun to beat the Patriots and Jets who have fans talking trash all the time. You guys are too damn quiet!!! Oh yeah, and Great Board!! Nice layout. Add some blue in with it and it would be perfect. |

Re: Hi everyone! Colts fan here - Peace
It's kind of hard to talk trash about a team that has won the last 25 or 26 games that they have wanted to win. We are a decided underdog and like it that way.
The Mannings have a long and deep history here. I used to watch Archie when he was the Saints quarterback. He would take the ball from center and start running for his life. Luckily for him he was pretty elusive. Welcome to the board. I have only good things to say about Payton and the Colts team and organization and was an even bigger fan of Dungy. I can assure you that our Payton and team will show up and play their hearts out, but the advantage from experience and from talent is with the Colts. However, as the Vikings and especially Favre, have found out, the Mo Jo and Karma and Voo Doo and destiny is with our guys, so we will still have to play you and not just concede the game. |

Re: Colts fan here, I come in peace
Okay I have been disrespected already! I am building a case one notch at a time. And my first post here was merged. Took my identity away from me.
Strike 1. The plan is working. |

Re: Colts fan here, I come in peace
Colts fan who used to live in North Dakota, Minneapolis for 1 year, and now Atlanta. I think I know more people here who are Saints fans than Falcons fans. Thanks for knocking Grandpa Farve out! Saints was the team from the NFC I wanted to win, but now gotta cheer against you! Should be a great game with two great teams.
Joseph Addai and Matt Stover, Louisiana college players, will come back to hurt their old state. |

Re: Colts fan here, I come in peace
The Mora Bowl indeed? Who would have thought 25 years ago, that these two teams would ever meet in the Superbowl? I would say nobody.
This is going to be a helluva match up, in all aspects of the game. Special teams could decide this one. It could also end the same way as the Vikes game, by a deciding field goal. Two "teams", playing in the superbowl, in this day and age? No drama, for the reporters to use, to get some ratings? Just a game, between two great teams, with two stand up guys at QB, and no one going to jail for some stupid reason? What will ESPN talk about for two weeks? |
What's popular is not always right, and what's right is not always popular.....
