  1. When my husband and I downsized from a four bed room house to a condo last year had to downsize my Colts collection. Went from full basement to a den/office. I didn't get rid of anything though, just some is in boxes and I rotate out from time to time. Husband is a little miffed that I can't seem to "find any room" for his Cowboy stuff.

  2. It is difficult to find the words to say...we owe him so much.

    It was Reggie more than anyone who helped make the Colts transition from the Peyton era to the Andrew era so smooth and successful.

    Could not agree more.  Without Reggie, Luck has no where near the rookie season he had.  He is the ultimate Mentor!!  All of the rookies owe him a great deal.  Time for T.Y. to carry on the torch!!

  3. I think we could have done a little better with the FA so I agree with Dustin there but I don't wanna fire him just yet he has had some real good moves the Vontae 1 was a steal and one of the best moves we could have made but I think this offseason he needs to go after Terrance "pot roast" Knighton :)

    If he could land Fitzgerald that would be huge.  We are going to need a veteran WR if Reggie retires. :(

  4.    is they need draft rg , rt in next draft  in 1st  too 3 rd .  better have young o'line  then go Fa guys playing only 1 too 3 years.  he can,t pick any good offense  play being he is one . that would prove he was a bad GM. thinking that why he afraid draft 1 , 2 round offense  linemen.

    Huh!!  You can spell out your words.  This isn't a text message lol!  (Oh, Sorry - Laugh Out Loud).

  5. Here is one thing I dont get. Luck has been throwing footballs since he was probably 3 or 4. He KNOWS what a properly inflated ball feels like. A couple pounds of psi would be instantly noticeable to him. Brady is a mechanics freak, I dont think he would play with an underinflated ball either, would throw off his mechanics.

     

    Neither QB was asking for new balls during the game that I could see.

    Only the balls that the Patriots were using on offense were underinflated.  It doesn't effect the flight of the thrown ball but greatly enhances the ability to grip the ball.  This makes it easier to throw, catch and hold onto in wet an cold conditions.  Therefore it is and advantage and is cheating.  Quote from ESPN "11 of the 12 Patriot balls were found to be underinflated"  not the balls the Colts were using.  If Jackson hadn't intercepted Brady in the 2nd quarter they probably would have gotten away with it.  He gave the intercepted ball to one of the Colt's equipment manager who felt it was underinflated and reported it to Grigson and Pagano.

  6. How do you know he didn't?

    Since the home team provides the balls and the sideline ball boys that throw the balls into the officials, Andrew would have been given perfectly inflated footballs.  The effect would be thus:  Underinflated balls would be given to our special teams causing short punts or kickoffs or poor field goal attempts.  The Patriot offense would then get underinflated balls which are easier to grip when wet thus making them easier to hold onto in the running game.

     

    This did not effect the outcome last night except possible the three points we didn't get on the missed field goal.  But in a close game field position is everything.  So if true the Patriots should be severely penalized.  Too bad they don't have the "Death Sentence" in the NFL like they do in the NCAA.  Can you imagine the Patsy Fans going without football for a season.  There would be a mushroom cloud over Boston lol.

  7. I'd love to see that Boomstick punt and recover his own ball after ten yards play against them.

     

    The dumbfounded look on Houston's side was great.  I'd like to see BB with that.

    Unfortunately I am sure BB has that one in his film library ;)

  8. My buddies back in Warren were yelling Boom! before you ever heard of him. We were yelling Boom! when he was the featured back at THE. I'm happy to yell Boom! now that he's a Colt.

    So, he's NOT called Daniel everywhere you look unless you're looking in places that don't know him.

    I'll continue to yell Boom! Sorry if it bothers you.

    Go Buckeyes!

    Smonroe, being a long suffering IU Football fan, I was not as familiar with Daniel as you.  I do enjoy yelling "BBBOOOOMMM" at the home games at The Oil Can.  This is due to being a Natural Born Hoosier and having been conditioned by many years of yelling "BOOM Baby" at the Pacer games lol.  So it naturally rolls of my tongue.  I could, however, just as easily yell "TRRRIIICCHH", it he deserved it :thmup:

  9. It made me mad also that the fans would boo Peyton.  I guess they just didn't have him long enough to truly come to love him as we do.  The Peyton's last drive was hard to watch.  I kept expecting him to make one of those perfect Peyton passes for a huge gain - and it simply didn't happen.  I hate seeing it but I am truly CRAZY HAPPY that my COLTS are moving on!!  GO LUCK TAKE US ALL THE WAY!!!

  10. I'm thinking TRich will have 12 carries for 9 yards, zero TDs, but everything else is plausible.  I do expect one interception by Luck, and probably a completion rate closer to 58%.  

     

    Defensively, we cannot allow Dalton to complete 90% or more of his passes like we did with Romo and company.  

    Dalton couldn't complete 90% of his passes against my nephews pee wee team ;)
