Default Dark clouds over Indy

First of all, my apologies for posting another "Indy Star obsessed" thread, but this one is pretty funny. I believe this guy is for real.

The NFL of course needs the cheaters to win, because they are in bed with Kraft and their unbeaten season is driving their ratings and revenues up.

So while everyone is anticipating Green Bay to make it to the SB to play NE, and salivating over that Favre vs. Brady matchup, the truth is...

the NFL has already pre-determined that the Giants will win Sunday for the same reason they had the Colts lose to SD last weekend:

They can't deal with a possible "good guys vs. cheaters" matchup. Too much bad PR for the league to have the whole cheating thing brought up like crazy and everyone cheering for the good guys to win when the NFL clearly wants the cheats to get away with it. That's why the Colts aren't playing them this weekend, either.

So no, there won't be any Favre and the white-hat guys fighting for the forces of good to rid the world of Belicheat and his trolls. The NFL could never allow that. They'd much rather have a big-city NY team playing NE in a rematch of their season-finale. This way the whole hype to the SB can be reliving that close game, how valiant the Giants are, how great it was both teams played their hearts out even though they had nothing to play for, and of course all of the NE record-setting plays/stats will be brought up over and over.

And you'd have the NY team vs. the undefeated team, with the cheating incident really only in the background.

This is what the NFL wants people. If this happens, don't be surprised!

Listen, the guy is a frustrated fan. Remember the word fan is short for fanatic !! Also, everyone posting responses are questioning his sanity !

He's just upset his team lost

Wow.
I actually had the uneasy feeling that the NFl so desperately wanted the rating bonanza that is the Colts/Pats matchup, that they would do anything to tear victory away from SD last week.
Oh.... ummmmm... they did try that. Hmmmmm

Based on what I've seen the past 3 seasons, somebody, somewhere has wanted the Colts to get a Sb win. 05's reffing debacle vs the Steelers, was only to be outdone by the 06 AFCCG vs the Pats, then quickly surpassed by the 11/4 Pats game, and finally a valiant effort to equal those shenanigans in the SD game last week.

Funny how Indy fans are oblivious to the repeated breaks the Colts get, and unaware of the undeserved opportunities their team has choked away for the past few years.

People who refer to themselves as good guys really grate on me. They are the church-going wife who is doing the pool boy, her husband who is doing the secretary, the kid who will put anything up his nose. The businessman who is a much bigger cheat than the poor bastard that gets caught stealing a loaf of bread. If you have a holier than thou attitude. IMO you move behind crack dealers and lawyers(just kidding). To the end of the line.

I did read the other posts and surprisingly every other indy fan told the guy that he was crazy, in fact one guy offered a link to psychiatry web site, funny stuff. BTW "Rodney Harrison" its SPAGHETTI STRAINER

Spaghetti Strainer? Okay, I give up. Is Harry from the political forum helping them with nicknames?

Posting this crap on the main board here just lowers the bar, which is low enough lately...

I'm sure if Andy Warhol were alive today, he would come up with a quip to describe how an anonymous person could gain attention by a moronic post.
