Question of the Day - 10/21 "Broncos Game"

[sb41champs]

   Today's Question of the Day REQUIRES complete honesty !!  Yeah - even you GUYS !!

 

Did YOU tear up or cry during the pre-game tribute to Peyton Manning on Sunday night - regardless of WHERE you watched the game ??   

 

[Blackhawk4]

Nope

[PrincetonTiger]

Not really

[Franklin County]

Not a drop!!!

[UKColt13]

Didn't catch it, but unlikely.

[jmac_48]

yes, I'm a sucker for that kind of emotional stuff.

 

Guilty, Your Honor!

[Buck Showalter]

Got a little choked up when 18 took off his helmet waved at fans in LOS...

Peyton sets the standard by what it means to be a class act in all of the sports world, he has done absolutely everything the way it should be done, it is just a shame the way things went down with him & the Colts, as far as him playing & finishing his career with one team the way he wanted to, so it is sad that that aspect did not pan out for him, but you must move on...

 

Anyways, as soon as the whistle blew it was Blue Horseshoe all the way!!!

It was great to see, definitely an emotionally moving moment. Not something that brings a tear to my eye, but last night was a galvanizing moment for me. I've somewhat compartmentalized my angst and reservation about the decision to let Manning go and move on. After last night, that angst is gone. Exorcised, so to speak. 

 

Irsay is a brilliant NFL owner. He had the guts to make what is, historically, one of the most difficult franchising decisions ever. ...and it was clearly brilliantly executed. 

 

Just picking Andrew Luck wouldn't have been enough. We could EASILY be a 2-14 team again this year, as well as last year, if all Irsay was capable of was letting Manning go for Luck. But....Irsay installed incredible coaching and Front Office personnel, a winning streak of terrific decisions. 

[IndyD4U]

Not gonna lie. This guy was teary-eyed

I'm convinced we have the best Coach, GM, Owner, and Quarterback we could have to turn this thing into a DYNASTY.

Was at the game and when I saw 18 start to take off his helmet I got a little teary eyed

[BOTT]

No

[supremecoltsfan300]

Yes

[BarbieP]

[Poster X]

Nice touch. I cried more seeing Reggie go down.

[In Luck We Trust]

heck no i didn't but i did start tearing up when reggie grabbed his knee. i knew right there and then it was very bad. 

[Indyswagger]

I did not cry, but did find it extremely emotional. I may have had a tear in my eye when Mathis stripped sacked the Ol fellow.

Very well said, I love what they are doing here and never liked what they did during the Manning years.  I used to get ripped for putting down Dungy and Pollian.  Colts would have won many SB's if Grigson and Pagano were running things then.  They are building the monster.
