I'll watch the first quarter, and maybe to the half, but that's it. Early start to the week tomorrow.

The Pack is kicking butt and taking names thus far. They may have more than a good shot at getting back to the big show this year!

  The way I see it, the Colts won't be in the Super Bowl in Indianapolis.  :yes:

The colts can too be in the superbowl!! cheering on the patriots....like all the other winners.
It's always darkest before the dawn.  So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.

They don't have to be in the super bowl. They'll reap every red cent of profit out of the event thanks to the sweetheart deal they got along with getting the taxpayers to foot the bill for their stadium!

:yes: :yes:  :yes: It's a damn shame that multi-millionaires owners and million dollar players get to have the taxpayers to pay for their stadium.  Plus get all of the money from the things they sell there.  :mask:  :007:

Not only that, but they get all revenues generated by parking, vendor fees, and concessions, including NFL fees paid for the facility use!

Suck for Luck question for the group:

Hypothetically speaking, let's say the Colts, the Dolphins, and the Rams continue their "suck for Luck" 2011 campaigns and all 3 end up 0-16 at the end of the year.   I know that's probably not likely, but it could happen.

If it does, what criteria come into play in determining the order in which those three teams would pick in the 2012 draft?

good question and I don't have a clue...but I wonder what the odds are that three teams would actually end up 0-16?...I'm thinking my Colts have a great chance...they blew there opportunities already as their schedule only gets tougher.

What is the tie breaker(s)? That is an excellent question and one I don't have the slightest idea as to an answer to! Do they go to the stats like totals points, yards, etc?  :confused:

My money is on the Dolts having the BEST chance at going 0 - 16. The fish and rams will probably win at least one!

I agree, but after the way the fish played last night, I'm not to sure.

Yup, HH!!  And Tim Tebow brings the Broncos to town this Sunday.  That will be another one in the L column.

The fish may be 0-6, but the Dolts go 0-7 tonight when they face the Saints. (They couldn't beat them with Manning, and they certainly are not going to beat them without him!)

Rumor mill is saying the fish will fire their coach in favor of the guy I like to call the "spitter", Bill Cowher!

Well that didn't take long. . . Colts give up the ball on an early snap fumble, resulting in a Saints TD!

I'd actually like to see that, but the ownership sucks here and the rest of the front office staff is even worse.  Suck for Luck!!
