Irsay Still Sucks!
http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/b...8.photogallery
Just look at that dick fer cryin' out loud!
29 years ago tomorrow the Mayflower Vans rolled out of Owings Mills and the Baltimore Colts were gone. I still wince from the pain every once in awhile. I still wanna smash Buffoon Bob just once in his pimply face. I still want the name, the colors, and OUR history retired. I loved that team.
Next year will make 3 decades since the move - the same amount of time that the Baltimore Colts played here believe it or not. To me that franchise no longer exists, except in our hearts.
Long Live the Baltimore Ravens! All others can kiss my ass.Last edited by Real Fan Dan; 03-28-2013 at 08:38 PM.
Twenty years of Cheers.
Thanks Baltimore Ravens Fans - You're the Best!

I am starting to think that holding on the hate is an old man's thing.
.... ducking .....
I mean, seriously, 29th is not exactly a landmark anniversary year. 30th I can understand, but 29th?!?!
And am I the only one that sees the years of pain as a good thing? We have the Ravens now. I bleed purple. I love my team and the town they represent.
Imagine this. Would your new spouse really appreciated you opining year after year about your ex? Every year at this time she'd have to hear how great the glory days were all the while you're wearing the shirt they bought for you.
We swam through the a river of shit and found pure gold on the other end. Ok, I get the never forget stuff, but why keep it alive?!?
Irsay was an abusive spouse. Let it go, Man. You'll be happier for it! ;)

Re: Irsay Still Sucks!
Well said Dan!! I remember that day like it was yesterday. My father was terminal with cancer at the time, and sports especially the Baltimore Colts were something we shared every day. He never missed a Baltimore Colt home game and I joined at every game for the last 16 years. I saw the reports that night and called him and his one comment still rings in my ears. I have seen my last football game.
Now 30 years later we have the Ravens and things worked out very well for us. I am well over the Colts and the Ravens have become for my sons and I what the Colts were.
For the younger Raven fans, we really have it great with an owner like Steve Biscotti. He may be the best owner in the NFL. We are in the penthouse now and that is better than the outhouse Irsay represented.

Re: Irsay Still Sucks!
Old man Irsay yes, Jimmy, spoiled son who did not earn anything to get the team, except inheritance. Almost got talked about if Peyton had won the SB. Still remains to be seen what jim's impact will be. Being the team with most losse gave him Luck, not sure if that is something to brag about. I'm over it, born in Baltimore in 1956, watch the colts and enjoyed every minute of it. When they left, never bothered with the other colts at all.

Re: Irsay Still Sucks!
Irsay ripped my heart out, but you know what? We now have the best owner in sports. I went from crushed, to almost having pity for that team. Shitty fans, shitty city (and Bmore ain't great), and a 2nd generation drunk owner.

Re: Irsay Still Sucks!
GET OVER IT PEOPLE!! Hate and anger will only destroy the person who allows it to permeate their lives! I was an avid Baltimore Colt fan, but I now have the Ravens and I am over the move completely. Bringing this up year after year is a slap in the Ravens face! Stop the whining
