MY RECENT COLTS JERSEY EXPERIENCE (6 Ratings)

Posted 1-28-2010 by colts1819

I  was at the convenience store picking something up the Monday after our downing of the Jets and someone behind me goes, "well your team made it to the Big One"....I turn around and there was a guy wearing a Brady Quinn jersey and I realized this is the same gentleman that I had seen right before the playoffs started that wished the Colts luck....he said he remembered me by my Colts jacket (which I wear all the time)...then he proceeded to tell me why we would beat the Saints...his number one reason Peyton Manning... he said after the Miami game when we had the ball for less than a total quarter and he still brought in the victory he knew we would win the Super Bowl this year...great to see other teams fans know talent when they see it....GO COLTS!!!!

nice story!!!  I think most people at least appreciate the Colts organization and its players.  Our guys don't shoot off at the mouth, you don't see much chest thumping on the field, etc.  I guess we're kinda old school in that regard, but I appreciate that about the Colts.  I'm fine with celebrating a TD or a big play like a turnover, but this parading around, pointing and chest thumping after making a catch or tackle really upsets me...that's what you're paid to do!!!  Really silly after a RB faked you out of your jock on the previous 4 plays and you missed the tackle...then you make a tackle and act like you're king of the world or something....geez.

Cool! Yes, it is really nice when fans of other teams acknowledge the quality in another team. And I believe that Colts fans would do the same--acknowledging quality in other teams (just like our players do when they are questioned about their upcoming opponent). Fortunately for us, our team really is the best right now. Some day, in the post-Manning era, we will probably need to exercise that quality of praising other teams more often.

I like it when fans of other teams give the Colts and their players the respect they deserve.

Maybe you should have offered him $5.00 for his jersey.  :)
