I mean we still have a guy here that eats cookies for breakfast so we aren't that normal.


we do have some great fans here (minus dam of course) and I am glad this place has been around for so long. I started posting here in like 2002 I think. something like that.

Meet me at my next elite tower race ........ I'm sure that you can do it, it's only 55 floors.

I love getting together with fellow Colts fans.

We're all pretty much outcast from other sites. I don't get along with some of the knuckleheads here, but I value their football knowledge, and it is unmatched on any of those pussy sites.

Got banned from Colts.com and someone recommended this place, don’t remember who but I’m dam sure glad they did. This site is classic, I honestly can’t imagine my Colts fandom without it now

Yeah, I wouldn't call too many of us on here normal (including myself), but it's a great forum with good and knowledgeable fans.

I've been on here long enough that I forget when I joined. I think it was before the 2012 season when I stumbled across this place looking for a new forum after the RATS forum was removed. And of course I'm glad I did.

This is still the best forum for genuine Colts fans, with little to no filters from the moderators. More often than not i find that the messages on here are of a higher standard than those written on other Colts dedicated websites with a team of writers.

I regularly visit Stambede Blue, but in my opinion that is getting worse and worse, and they are regurgitating things written by other media outlets, with very little input from the author of the post. It's as if they are just hoping that the fans will add the commentary themselves. There isn't any journalism, and i realise that they are not paid as a journalist, but it feels as if articles were well written and about decent topics if you go back 5 years ago.

So I go back to the AOL days for my first Colts forum. I think myself and DOE, maybe Pete were on there. So we are talking mid 90's back then.

I also remember correctly predicting that Jim Mora would be the next coach of the Colts.

I joined RATS when the whole AOL thing became less fun.

The most memorable thread on RATS was actually a thread on Larry Moore, who was playing G/C for the Colts at the time. The thread ended up becoming, what I believe was the longest ever thread on the the RATS forum. I believe that it was 30+ pages.

When RATS went down with a whimper, is when I joined FREAKS. IT is still essentially RATS when it was fun. I'm not sure that the format is that much different.

Lest you forget, that I also predicted The Daniel Jones arrival.

Man you’re a real OG around here holy shit.

I got banned from Colts.com for a debate over the draft that year, I wanted the Colts to pick Chris Johnson, everyone there was bashing me saying I didn’t know anything about football and he’d end up being a nobody. It was fun to me I was enjoying the debate. I didn’t know I had done anything wrong until I received the email and I will say I was disappointed because I was ready to argue this until draft and after the draft and years later.

Which I can say now Chris Johnson ended up being a hell of a running back.

That’s another reason why this place is great, we can stand on something have debates about it but we all still come back right or wrong. We’re all still here and we can laugh when we’re dead wrong. *Brian Price*

Remember ManningsArmy from the Star days?

Now that was a humorous troll.

Colts dot com is absolute trash. Always has been. I cannot stand that place.

And I’ve tried numerous times.

There are way to many mindless fan boys over there that don’t know shit about football.
