I just wanted to post this as a thank you to the Patriots nation for their part in making being a Colts fan so much fun for so long.
See, up to this week, I thought there was a tiny chance that there would be some kind of a rekindling of the Pats-Colts rivalry in the future. I knew it wasn't much of a chance, and now that the owner tossing many more Colts after letting Manning go, there's nothing to rival about. Who knows how far the fire sale will go.
I haven't posted here in years, I would just read and enjoy our team getting under your skin every once in a while. I would follow what you all have to say about your team too. I've always respected your team and how they built up from the AFC East cellar, as did the Colts.
See I always saw the Colts and Patriots as 2 teams that after years of being down, figured out how to build teams their own way, while so many other teams were chasing what other teams were trying to do. Yes, the teams were so different, but it worked for both for a really long time, each in their own way.
It was a fun over decade long ride with the that version of the Colts, and for most of it, the Patriots rivalry was one of the most enjoyable parts. I hope the Patriots organization keeps on doing what it's been doing for as long as it can. Cause it really sucks when the ride ends. I guess our owner and new GM have decided to stop doing what the Colts have done and move in a new direction, I just fear the new direction is to follow what everyone else is doing to succeed. And when your team does that, your team is just like everyone else.
