Come on now, the Colts owner is recognizing Peyton for his years of service and Colts fans should also thank him for all those years of great entertainment. But they are Ex-Colts not Broncos. The will be rooting for the Colts and Peyton as a player. GO COLTS and find a way to win.

I have no clue who they will cheer for but keep in mind other than a handful of guys they didn't with many of the guys on the Colts roster now and Peyton is their friend so who knows what they will do.  My guess is just stand there and enjoy the game happy when something goes well for the Colts and also happy for Peyton when things go well for him.  I am sure they wont be the only two in the stadium that feel that ways on Sunday.

Irsay has become quite the marketing genius. Even if it makes others hate him, he knows how to take advantage of a situation.

Apparently, the Peyton video tribute wasn't enough. Marvin & Edge must be a little extra insurance policy to mess with Manning's psyche. Either that or he figures if we lose, the fans will forget the loss & remember seeing the old Blue horseshoe gang under the same roof. Smart diversion tactic actually. 

 

Kinda like promising a little kid a ton of ice cream after you remove their tonsils. The loss may hurt, but remember the sweet photo op with Marvin, Edge, Reggie, & Peyton. Jim Irsay will slap that image on a ton of Colts merchandise too. Ka Ching! I see no problem with that at all.

Actually Irsay went out of his way to make sure Grigson didn't make the call on rather to go with Luck or Manning he made that call so he did make one of those calls.  Also who do you think hired the right people?  Also if you ready Dungy's book it was Irsay, not Polian, that made the phone call to him that got him to Indianapolis.

 

Also please show your proof that Jim Irsay has ever had a drinking problem to support your name calling there at the end.  Also if was greedy which means he cares about money above all else he would run the Colts to make as much profit as he possibly could, he wouldn't be nearly as involved with the community that he is and he wouldn't donate as much money as he does to charities or give it away on twitter.  Also, he wouldn't have spent the money it took to get a guy like Bill Polian here and wouldn't have spent the money he did to get good players here. 

 

If you want to dislike Jim Irsay that's fine but at least use facts to base that on not things you want to be true because you don't like him.

Jim Irsay being called a genius is a laugh. He has nothing to do with the team's success. All he has done is hire the right people that drafted Luck/Manning and I doubt he even made those decisions himself. 

 

Now he is talking  crap about Peyton not winning him enough Superbowls the week that we have to play him? He wouldn't have any Superbowls, a new stadium, and he probably would have moved the team if not for Peyton!

 

Irsay is a drunken greedy * just like his Dad. He is a spoiled rich brat that has had everything handed to him in life and complains he needs more. I wish someone in the organization could convince this moronic loud mouth to delete his Twitter account. 

You mad bro?

I acknowledged that he hired some good people. Having money and being rich doesn't make you a genius. If he doesn't drink then why does he look like W.C. Fields? That is all the proof I need.

So in other words you have no proof just tossing it out there with what you think he does.

Also, pretty sure he admitted to have a painkiller addiction in the 90's. Who doesn't drink and take pills? They go hand and hand.

He did and has since dealt with it, I am still waiting for you to offer some real proof that he's a drunk.  Like I said before if you don't like the man you don't have too.  Just don't make stuff up.

Ha, ha, ha.....funny.....so even after we get blown away by Peyton and the Broncos, all the fans go home happy.

So everything else I said about him is true and you do not have a problem with? Just that  he may not be the drunk I think he is. Or you are okay with him embarrassing himself the team and the city of Indianapolis all over Twitter? Oh and don't forget taking a jab at Peyton for no reason.

Mod note: Removed some "stuff" from this thread that was abusive and inappropriate. Carry on. And please, remember the rules.

 

 

http://forums.colts.com/index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=boardrules

Zero tolerance for personal attacks on anyone including the mods.

 

(3) Personal attacks are not Allowed. While you may argue about the football-related actions, decisions or comments of an individual, you may not attack the individuals themselves. The Ownership, Coaching, Players, Staff and all members should be afforded the same respect as one another. Threads with the intention to "call out" another member or question their "fanhood" are not allowed.

(4) Do not post messages that are inflammatory and serve solely to incite (bait) other members into an argument

 

(7) Please do no attempt to avoid the profanity filters. Profanity and vulgarity in posts, veiled or otherwise, is unacceptable and prohibited. The intentional misspelling, replacing letters with special characters (@, $, etc.) words constitutes masked profanity and vulgarity. Posts containing such content are subject to editing or deletion. Members posting in this manner are subject to warnings/posting restrictions.

This is a family friendly site . That means that *masked* profanity and sexual innuendo are prohibited. Don't post it and don't try to be clever and "get around the filter".

 

To discuss a warning or violation with the issuing moderator, please message the moderator. Do not discuss warnings or violations in an open forum.

If you have a problem with the rules or with moderation, PM (private message) a member of the mod team. Public discussion of site and forum moderation (including in the blogs or profiles) is against the rules.
Several common violations for which moderator warnings are issued:

- Profanity and vulgarity (text or images)- Personal attacks and name calling

- Posting in ALL CAPS- Smack talk and trolling behavior

- Spamming and advertising.

-Flaming and Baiting: Remember that communication across the web is different from face-to-face interaction, in which only the words are seen, not your facial expressions or tone of voice. Please be cognizant of how you use your words.

The words you post in a burst of passion or indignant anger will be there for you and other members to see, often long after those intense feelings have subsided. While we are not discouraging spontaneity and emotion, we do ask you to recognize the long-term affects of the content that you post.

 

While debate, discussion and even criticism is acceptable, we will not tolerate abusive speech, harassment, personal attacks, purposeless or inflammatory postings, or posting misinformation in the title of a thread. There will be no flexibility in our policy.

You may find that you do not always agree with someone else's opinion. At those times, please remember that it's safer and more polite to take issue with the comments than with the person. While free debate within the outlined parameters is encouraged and diversity of opinion is what fuels a good debate, each member is entitled to his own opinion, so long as it is expressed in a civil manner and does not violate the code of conduct.

Please recognize the difference between attacking an opinion and attacking another member personally.

If they are in game shape tell them to suit up. We could use the boost on offense!

i know that's a joke but in 2010 when we went to Philly Marvin was there and Polian asked if he could still go because they could use him and Marvin told him he was done. Typical Marvin that's the closest he ever came to saying he retired. Of the triplets he's the only one to play his whole career here and didn't get some kind of tribute in his final game at LOS (of course this might not be Peyton's last game here only time will tell.)

Actually in the last game of the 2008 season vs. Tennessee they threw him the ball on almost every play to enable him to be the 2nd leading receiver in receptions. They announced it on the board in game and the game was delayed for a moment so he could acknowledge the fans. I thought that was pretty cool.

Marvin never came back to LOS as an opponent. He never had an official "final game" in LOS. The Colts had a Ring of Honor ceremony for him in 2011.

Didn't Irsay drop a $500K check for the victims of the tornado in Southern Indiana a while back?
