We are a team right now like chasing the Kenyon's in a race/ chasing a great runner in general = Chiefs, Ravens, Cincy with Burrow, and probably Houston who can a race in an hour and 5 minutes to an hour 45 minutes lol. We run it in 2 hours. When I did run that, I wanted to run it even faster but my goal was 2 hours, I was the Colts I guess . There were many that were the Panthers, Commanders, and Cards of that run. Some couldn't even finish, and others were timed in nearly 4 hours. The guy that won it ran it like in an hour and 5 minutes, I met him and asked him how the hell do you run like that? He couldn't even speak English .

Golf tournaments are rarely won by someone playing bad. Most winners are under Par at least in the Masters for example. I ran the 2006 13 MIle Mini-Marathon in 2 hours and came in 3,843 place you can look it up out of 35,965 runners. Impressively good but far from great. Even most good runners finished around 2 hours 15 minutes, others it took forever, etc.. Having said that, if the other 3,842 runners blew a hamstring out including the Kenyon's that finished ahead of me, I would be thrilled to hoist the trophy up considering I busted my butt training for that thing for almost a year. Eating crappy foods and running everyday, living on drinking water and eating Tuna and I ran with the best in the world.

What I don't get is, a positive poster getting ridiculed even when they agree with negative posters on certain things. I am positive but would agree: AR isn't a top 5-7 QB in the league, he barely played his rookie season. So, I have no leg to stand on yet. Ballard isn't a Top 10 GM in the league. I agree. I have him around 15th/16th. We have played average football since 2021. Can't debate it. -all is true. But when someone comes at me saying Ballard sucks, Irsay is a senile old man and has a drug problem, AR is made of glass, Colts suck and last season wasn't enjoyable. There is my problem. If someone can't understand that, than I don't know what to tell ya . The negative people just pour it on and never say anything good, at least the positive people see a middle ground and can enjoy wins. That is just the way I see it based on posts in here.

Steelers made the playoffs and actually weren't that bad. Pats on the other hand stunk but beating BB is always fun at least for me considering he is arguably the greatest coach ever.

I thought our run was impressive not just because of beating Brady but because we had to go into Baltimore and win as well. This is straight from Ray Lewis mouth = "Peyton gave me more nightmares than any other QB I have played against in my career, because I knew he could beat me if I messed up just 1 time". He went on and said - Going into 2006, "Brady has the Rings with 3 but Peyton was chasing that 1st one which had me scared", "the dude wanted that ring"!

Yeah the 2013 Sunday Night Game. That was a great game. Mathis with a huge strip sack on the GOAT.

I am not sure Doug would be happy if we won a SB in a fluke way. Meaning not having an all-time great team but won because other good teams had injuries and we got the bounce of the ball. There are still some that say Peyton won his SB because Sexy Rexy was the opposing QB which blows my mind because we beat Tom Brady and BB to get to that game.

Only when it goes overboard. Overboard is the key word. If someone came on here and said we aren't a SB contender yet, or our QB isn't a top 5 QB yet, or Ballard isn't a top 10 GM, then I would listen and agree. When someone says Ballard sucks, Colts suck, AR is glass and will be a bust just to be negative, and we will never do nothing under Ballard then I have to roll my eyes. See the difference.

Why?

The difference between negative fans and positive fans are, positive fans still point out the teams' flaws and being disappointed after a loss but know the season is still fun to watch and we have a punchers chance at winning. Negative fans never give us credit for a huge win and just talk smack about the team all year for craps and giggles. Any smart person knows this. I remember after we beat the Steelers, most of the negative fans disappeared for a week. - I mean if a Colts fan can't be happy about beating that cheating team and improving to 8-6, then I am not sure what someone would want.

Imagine had we caught that pass and won the division?? This forum would've been praising Ballard for winning the Division, Shane would have been up for coach of the year, and many would have wanted Minshew back. It is amazing how 1 play changes everything.

Cubs smoke Dodgers, now 6-3. @HOZERwe have a World Series contender on our hands.

Huge win for the Pacers tonight. We beat the Heat 117-115 and have complete control of the 6th seed now sitting at 45-34. So proud of this team. The big Fella Pascal - I love that guy he is the best, we have a true all-around deep team with 1 star in Haliburton.

I never considered Minshew a scrub but many did though. When we lost AR, it was like the air went out of the building in here. I still was positive.

He is a top 50 QB of all-time (50 out of thousands says a lot) and I can say that without even blinking based on his stats, wins, and talent. Despite the longevity factor.

Last year had 1995 written all over it, IF we could have beat Houston and that was so close that is hurts.

My top 5 Luck games: 1. 2013 season = 28 point comeback win vs the Chiefs in the Playoffs 45-44. 2. 2014 season = beating the Broncos in Mile High in the Divisional Round. Luck had to face a good secondary + Von Miller and our Peyton on the other side. That win put us in the AFC Title Game. 3. 2012 season = Chuck Strong Game. Packers were great that season and had Aaron in his prime. Luck to Reggie was just too much! Colts were down big, came back to win 30-27. 4. 2012 season = The Lions game at Detroit. Stafford in his prime and the Lions were good that season. Luck wins it to Avery with a walk off 34-33. 5. I have to throw in a 2018 game right? Colts destroy the Texans and Watson in the Playoffs at Houston. Luck made the Texans defense look like a bunch of Putz's

I am just done arguing with him and took the high road, after AR got injured not 1 person in here picked us to win 9 games and be a play away from winning the South. That is why I enjoyed it

Probably so but if anyone can beat them it is Purdue because they have the Bigs (Edey) and can shoot 3's. Last season, Purdue struggled from 3.

SC 37-0 bench scoring, Iowa gave Clark no help at all. With the #1 pick in the WNBA Draft, The Fever select = the all-time leading scorer and 2-Time Tourney runner up out of Iowa, CAITLAN CLARK!

Dumb Rain Delay, Cubs lead 6-0 and are dominating. Even Mother Nature loves the Dodgers SMH.

Also the game against Green Bay, Chuck Strong. Luck to Reggie was unstoppable.

5-0 now, yeah taking 2 of 3 from the Dodgers is excellent. The schedule makers put us against them and to start at Texas = cute. If we come out of this 6-3 I will take it. We swept the Rockies which we needed too.

Cubs up 4-0 over the Dodgers today. Lost yesterday but I wanted 2 of 3 and we are on our way.

I respect your opinion, I just never dreamed we would be within a play of winning the division, something we have never done under Ballard, that is why I found the season enjoyable and unexpected.
