    I'm Over It!

    Leading into last night’s Super Bowl XLI, like so many others here in Baltimore, I dreaded the thought of Jimmy Irsay hoisting the Lombardi Trophy and the Indianapolis Colts being World Champions. The Colts as champions right on the heels of a Steelers' World Championship campaign seemed just a little too unfair.

    As the clock ticked away while Rex Grossman completed his best impersonation of Kyle Boller on his worst day and it became increasingly apparent that the Colts would win, I wasn’t as uncomfortable or agitated as I thought I’d be. Was I ready to emphatically proclaim that I indeed was over it?

    If Grossman, with 2 interceptions and a fumble against the Colts, was impersonating a Ravens QB, it would have to be McNair, with with 2 interceptions and a fumble lost against the Colts.

    I won't get over it until the Baltimore Colts records are severally recognized and until the media stops making dumbass statements such as what we heard last night: "this was the 2nd Super Bowl Championship in the history of this franchise"
    In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

    I feel far less bitter this year, where the Colts went out and showed, quite clearly, that they were the better team, than I did last year, where the Steelers played a poor game and needed some help from the officials to beat Seattle. The Colts played a good game. The Bears did not. End of discussion.

    I don't think the Colts were the best team in football this year, but they were one of the elite four (the four AFC division winners) and had as much right to this title as any of the others. The only reason I'm bitter at all is not because it was the Colts that won, but because it wasn't the Ravens. We squandered the most talented team we've ever had without winning a playoff game. But I believe we can repeat our division championship next year and make a better playoff push, hopefully finishing in a Super Bowl championship. So I'm still very optimistic about this team.

    Then I guess you'll live a miserable life unnecessarily (or just move to Indy for hell's sake), because the fact is that this IS the Colts second SB win. They have to be the first franchise to win the SB in two different cities.
    It's a new season! It's a new day!

    Wrong. The Raiders won Super Bowls in Oakland (1977, 1981) and Los Angeles (1984).

    Dont worry guys.

    We are going to comeback this year with the EXACT same vets!! EXACT SAME!! No one is leaving but AD and thats not even a sure thing. McNair, Mason, Heap, Pryce, CMac, Ray, and the rest will all be back. Plus another excellent draft in April and we are gearing up for a SB run.

    Chin up!!

    We'll see what happens.

    Main things that need to change is making the offense somewhere fit McNair.

    I wouldn't be at all broken up if Mason was gone

    The fact that we won the SB before Indy made a world of difference for me.

    Yea I was pretty bummed about the Colts winning too. It almost seems as if the Colts got every call and every break go their way during the playoffs. Rex Grossman showed the world he should not be allowed anywhere near a starting QB's job in the NFL. He played 10 times worse than I thought he ever could, and looked like a candy ass fumbling the ball and under-throwing his receivers. He really let his entire team down.

    I refuse to watch ESPN between the hours of 7am and 6pm because all they are going to talk about until baseball spring training is Peyton fuckin' Manning. I won't be able to stand it.

    Bring on April at the 'Yard.
