nephinsfan said:Are you saying that the Colts Offense cannot put points on the board based off of a game that was played a year ago?...........ummm.....ok...If you say so chief.
Missing the point: I'm saying the "usual suspects" still play for the Colts, and those "usual suspects" seem to have a way of choking come the big game :titanic: . Of course, that's just their track record, it doesn't mean anything in the same vein that you'd probably hire a guy with multiple DUIs to drive a school bus :googly: . Of course, we might have to wait until the AFCCG to get the chance to witness them "spinning out" again.
OK, so the Bengals were not a good team when dillon was there...Funny How I do not remember Barry Sanders causing problems in the Lions locker room or shooting his mouth off to the media...or throwing temper tantrums...But I guess he just was not as good as Dillon
Whether Sanders was better than Dillon has no relevance to this discussion :down: . Dillon is not without fault, but it is not difficult with a little bit of empathy to understand his frustration, just as if Sanders would have attempted to do the same thing in Detriot. Hell, Ray Bourque had a hand in orchestrating his trade from the Bruins and 99% of New England sympathized with him leaving the organization and even cheered on the Avalanche in the NHL playoffs. But I guess you've never been trapped in a crappy situation that was only going to get crappier and felt frustrated? :confused: Dillon: perfect - no, forgivable with time - yes.
And what exactly are you contributing to this web site besides your one sided views on how you think your team can walk on water? You come over here and you have this "I am better than anyone here" attitude on a rival teams web site and use the same reasons over and over again an why you think that the pats are going to win.......
At least I back up my opinions with a little more than "I do not need to google anything about any pats player because #1 I could care less who they have on the field as long as they are losing." 'Nuff said. Another irony is the "I hate every Patriots-related" one-trick-pony-that-you-are calling me repetitive: priceless . You have my promise I will work harder on my posts to further educate you (and I'm speaking directly to you, not the entire Fins board, so that I don't come off as arrogant) in the future :whip: .
I don't believe the Pats walk on water, but I do believe they run a class organization, which could be used a model (and is around the league) for others. And for the record, if I come off with a "I am better than anyone here" attitude to you, you might want to do a little introspection as to why you feel this way :mirror: .
Funny thing that I just cannot get by is that all the new england fans keep telling everyone how this is not the pats of the beginning of the season and how we should all forget how they played then and look at how they are playing now....yet....every time someone brings up the colts, they all say "Look what happened last year" ...ok, look what happened on Monday night this year in YOUR house. I know I know....Tedy was not there......How could i forget...Now that he is back he is going singlehandedly take on the Colts entire O line and wreak havoc on Manning...Hell why is Belichick even putting the other ten guys out there...they should just let Bruschi do it all. I mean he should have time to do that and rescue the burning puppies in the car right????
I was only responding to this question (below). And I don't believe the topic has been beaten to death yet.

The New Guy brings insight to this thread and is appreciated :up: . You have not that I have seen recently. If you care to stop your hating and partake in educating us NE arrogant pricks OR learning something yourself by asking critical questions of us, please do.
And why am i being hypocritcal because I am a phins fan from Maine? I would be if I was on some lame patsy web site posting thoughts but like I have said before, I have no desire to go to any pats or jets or bills or any other teams site. and the last time that I checked, the Phins had one of largest countrywide fan bases in the NFL and that was proven at this years HOF induction. Hell I met a Phins fan from Idaho.....I think that was the first person that I have ever even met from Idaho and I spent ten years in the Military.
The Fins have a heck of a fan base, many of them at-first bandwagoners who were attracted to the team from years of winning, much like the fan base the Pats are starting to attract now. It comes with the territory, and I can understand if not respect that. I was there sitting in old Foxboro stadium during the dark days: the 1-15 days, the Victor Kiam days, the Patrick Sullivan days, the Parcells-mailing-in-the-SB days, the meet-me-in-Saint-Louis days, the players-coked-up-during-the-games days...and I'm going to enjoy this little respite with the Pats on top b/c I realize everything is cyclical in life and eventually somebody's going to come along to knock the Champs off the wall.
The term, "Lame patsy website" is once again indicative of your nature.
Your posts come off arrogant. You come off arrogant. but after being surrounded by pats fans my whole life (well, actually they never really came out of the woodwork til five years ago) I have come to expect it from them.
Yes, ignorance will bequeath intolerance and jealousy of things foreign.
and for the record...did you really say "toodles"?
Yes. Ta-ta. I will be here on this thread off-and-on until the end of the NE season, win or lose, if anybody wants to discuss football.
