Never said they wouldn't. At the beginning of B1G play, I thought it'd be a split with Indiana having better odds of a sweep, congrats on the sweep. Indiana was certainly the better team. Some of the things I said in regards to All Conference teams were laughed at, same with the FOY award. But you haven't seen me going around attacking people on it. Same w UM winning a share of the conference. |

I blame Caldwell and the Pollians for not having Orlovsky play more of the season. He would have played us out of the top 3 picks |

Yeah I was a little more emotional about it than I thought I'd be. Tough to see a player/person who has represented my team and state so well leave. Was a hell of a ride and I'm officially a fan of whatever team Manning ends up on. I understand why this is happening but its still a little surreal that the Manning era is over. |

I was pretty sad listening to it on the radio during lunch, and I'm not even a Colts fan. I agree though, I'll be rooting for whoever he signs with to some degree, and more so if it isn't in the NFC West. |

...not a colts or manning fan... ...but... ...i have to say that the situation was handled pretty well and it was pretty classy to see those guys up there and as emotional as they were...very well done, Colts nation... |

Disagree with the part about it being handled pretty well...Irsay shouldn't have drug this whole thing out until now. He knew exactly what he was going to do as soon as he got the #1 pick...all he's done is made it harder for everyone waiting until now to make it official. Don't be surprised to see those moving vans sneaking away to L.A. with our team in the middle of the night sometime soon... |

I understand that this was upsetting, but Manning being out last year wasn't even 50% of the cause of the 2-win season. br |

Put some of the blame on Caldwell for sticking with Painter, and well...just being a crappy coach in general, but the same team went 10-6 the year before with him so I tend to disagree... |

Easy there. That's probably a 10 win team with Manning, maybe more. People quickly forget how good he was. |

The guy picked last in gym class

Do you think Manning would have competed 71% of his passes and thrown for about 4000 yards with 25 TDs and 8 interceptions? Becuase that is what Colts opponents did. |

The colts defense sucked ass this season. Maybe Manning would have doubled as a pass rusher?? br |
