  1. Yeah, it's completely off topic, but I wouldn't be part of a standing ovation in that situation. I'm not one of these guys saying he should burn at the stake, either, but I wouldn't be voicing support for him in that situation.

    That's right, but it didn't suprise me that he got a standing ovation. You'd be suprised how many people don't have a problem with domestic abuse. 

  2. That's weird, IMO.

     

    It's one thing to not care. It's another to actively cheer for him because of his criminal activity. 

    Players are regular people just like you and me, and everybody makes dumb decisions from time to time. With that being said now that I think about it I wouldn't support Ray Rice. Even though that's his personal business he crossed the line with what he did. 

  3. You realize Ravens fans gave Ray Rice a standing ovation out of support for what was going on in his personal life, right?

     

    So you don't have to care what they do in their personal life, but that probably means you wouldn't have been cheering for him, right?

    Yes I would that's why I said I don't care. I also said in another post that Ravens fans are still supporting Ray Rice.

  4. Playing our game and not bowing down to them. You still have to play the game simple as that. A lot of people including myself thought we were gonna beat the Steelers. That didn't happen obviously and we lost in the worst way.  Who's to say that we can't beat New England. 

  5. Sheep do that.  Real fans hold their favorite organizations accountable.  When the team sucks, they withhold their support and dollars.  When a player on that team beats his wife and the team does nothing, real fans withhold their support.  The NFL is an entertainment industry and a business, I hear it all the time from the owners, the players, the coaches, and everyone directly involved with the league, so as I fan, I will not be roped into the idea that I am a lesser person because don't blindly support everything the Colts organization, Jim Irsay, Chuck Pagano, Ryan Grigson, and the rest of the NFL do and honestly, I am so sick and tired of the "real fan" argument.  

    You're blowing one little thing I said out of proportion without even staying on the topic. The thread is about all of the fans that became Broncos fans when Peyton left Indy. But I'll respond anyway. Real fans stick with their team no matter what through thick and thin, not on some fairweather stuff. There are a lot of Ravens fans who support Ray Rice as well as the team anyway. They felt he was wrong but at the same time was personal and the suspension was a bit out of line. I said in my second post if you read it that the NFL is a business as well as entertainment. I'm not blind to the things that the Colts organization do either. They make decisions that I don't agree with as well but I'll still support the team 100 percent. If you're a fan of another team more power to you. 

  6. Well stated. I have been a Colt fan my whole life, even before they relocated to Indy. Peyton made Colt football a pleasure to watch again, and for that I will always be a a fan of his. But when it comes to Colts vs. Broncos, there is really no question on where my loyalties lie. Kick his rear Luck.

    I'm a whole lot young than most of the fans on this forum, so I became a fan because of Peyton, Edge, Marvin, ect. I didn't wan't Peyton to leave but this is a business, as well as entertainment for the fans. I'll always be a fan of Peyton's though. At least when the organization let him go he didn't complain about it he just kept it moving. Unlike Steve Smith "Sr." acting like an ex girlfriend.
