Colts Fans Start “Asterisk Project” In Effort to Discredit Patriots Title
Brian Spurlock - USA TODAY Sports
First it was a failed blimp message attempt, and now even after losing to the New England Patriots by only a touchdown on Sunday night, some Indianapolis Colts fans still aren’t over the Patriots alleged”cheating ways”.
Another new GoFundMe page sprung up this week entitled “The Asterisk Project” by Colts fan Jim Purucker. The sole purpose of the Project is to raise 10 million dollars to “urge the NFL and Commissioner Goodell to place an asterisk in the record book next to all the Patriot victories, accomplishments and records achieved during the Brady/Belichick/Kraft era noting they happened in an era when the team was known to have cheated on multiple occasions in different ways” it states in the description online.
In an interview with local Indianapolis news affiliate WISH, Purucker states, “I don’t think this thing ought to go away and 10 years from now when people look at the record book and see this fantastic set of accomplishments that the Patriots have amassed, I think there ought to be an asterisk next to it.”
As of tonight, the account has raised a mere but surprising $1,930 dollars, just $9,998,070 more to go.
Indy never knows when to just give up…what a shame https://t.co/ApE0Igyb0c #PatriotsNation #notgonnahappen
