The Colts had one shit year which landed them Peyton Manning ........ the 3-13 1997 season. In 1996 the Colts went 9-7 and made the playoffs, in 1995 they went 9-7 and made the playoffs, and in 1994 they went 8-8. http://www.jt-sw.com/football/pro/te...istories/colts The Colts had 5 or 6 shit years between 1984 and 1993, but they had nothing to do with their eventual landing of Manning. o

I know you're old as hell and I have nothing against you or anything, but that post was asinine. Absolutely clueless about Colts life in Indianapolis before Peyton Manning. Five or six shit years...jeezus

I also remember the Pacers in the 80s. Before Reggie Miller. People would come to the elementary schools and give out free tickets. All you had to do was go to the main office and ask for them. "Can I have five Pacers tickets please?". Sure, here you go! I saw many a game at Market Square Arena in the Wayman Tisdale era. Pacers lost 85% of them but we kids had fun. Times sure have changed but Indy sports fans should hope they never return to those days. Colts games were blacked out on TV most weeks. Five or six years...jeez

I've been a colt fan for over 50 years. I can remember buying a bic lighter with the Colts logo in Tahoe and having the girl at the counter actually laugh at me. They spent years as the worst run organization in football, always looking for that qb who could play the game. Peyton's first year I was watching him and my wife came into the room. She said to me 'Are you actually crying over a football game?' because I had tears in my eyes. I told her that after all these years we finally had a qb an would be actually fun to watch. She said I was full of shit, the Colts always would be crap. We are not going down that route again (decades of crappiness- really from Bert Jones to Manning with one half way good year with mixed in). Not with Ballard/Reich.

Colts and Orioles. I said that they spent years trying to get a franchise qb and were shit.I did not say all those years had anything to do with getting Manning. By shit I meant that they did not play any games that meant a damn thing after the first month or so of the season. Those were not fun teams to root for. The most exciting day of the year was draft day, I still have years of Pro Football draft digests to prove it. I don't want to go down that rabbit hole again. Obviously I would like to improve our qb play but not at the expense of the rest of the team. By that I mean not going all in for a qb that may or may not be a franchise guy by giving up a lot of assets to get him. By assets I mean draft assets ie picks.

Oh man! I had totally forgotten about that. Can you imagine that happening in this day and age? No way that would be able to keep a team in town these days!
