Hey guys---It's always nice to be among fellow Colts lovers! Does anyone else feel the expectations placed on our team are just ridiculously high?! I mean, yes, we all want them to go to the Super Bowl. However, it seems along the way their other accomplishments are pretty much minimized: "Yeah, OK, so they've won far more games over the past few years than any other team, but just wait until they get to the post season" or "Fine, so maybe Peyton sets a new QB record nearly every time he steps on the field, BUT how come he can't win the big game?!"
Sometimes I think life would be a lot easier if I rooted for a team with low expectations, so that you're pleasantly surprised every time they even win a game and aren't too crushed based on what does and doesn't happen in the post-season.
1. Location: New York, NY (and I'm very excited to see at least one other NY-based Colts fan!)
2. Favorite Current Player: Peyton Manning, Bob Sanders (PLEASE return on a permanent basis---the defense needs you!), Reggie Wayne
3. Favorite Former Colts Player: Unitas
4. Other NFL teams: The Jets, but not nearly to the extent that I love and feel invested in the Colts
5. Other sports and teams: Football is pretty much the only sports I'm passionate about
6. Other info: I love to read, write and and am generally not someone you'd guess was a huge sports fan. I'm single and couldn't imagine dating someone who didn't at least like/respect the Colts
