Take the Dress of the QB Already

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

Recently I read the piece about thefine that Melvin Bullitt got for hitting Mark Sanchez. Most of you have heard all the hub about some supposed hits that should have been flagged that Brett Favre took. Now Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams has made some comments about smacking the Colt QB around with hopes that “he doesn’t get back up and play again.” Of course the media is just itching to see if comments like that will get a rise out of either Jim Caldwell or Peyton Manning.
It is understandable that people get concerned about injuries. No one with half [...]

Breakfast with Champions

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

Ever wonder how many pancakes that Jeff Saturday can eat? or how many eggs that Reggie Wayne likes in the morning? or whether Peyton prefers sausage or bacon?
Well it will cost you a few pennies to find out, but if you happen to be in South Florida for the Super Bowl you might want to consider it (obviously, your shelling out the dollars to go down there so you might as well do the trip right!).
Athletes in Action will be hosting the 23rd Annual NFL Sanctioned Super Bowl Breakfast on the Saturday prior to the game at 8:oo AM (at the Westin Diplomat [...]

Going to Miami!

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

I tried to think of some pithy remark related to the Will Smith song about Miami, but it just wasn’t coming to me. Some things you just can’t force; I’m better off sticking to football anyway.
For the second time in four years the Indianapolis Colts will be the AFC representative in the Super Bowl and conveniently enough they will be returning to the scene of their first visit- beautiful, sunny Miami. Their opponent will be much more of an offensive threat this time in the New Orleans Saints. However, before talking about those guys I want to talk about the AFC [...]

Colt Fans Unite!

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

Ever want to just talk sports for a living? Last year the NFL decided that they would make this dream a reality for one special person who would be dubbed the Director of Fandemonium. A Minnesota Viking currently holds the coveted spot which he will soon have to relinquish to another lucky fan. Six fans are left and only one can take the top prize!
That brings me to the main point of this blog- as Indianapolis Colt fans not only should we support the team that we all love (or at least like a little bit) but we should support [...]

Colts in Danger of Falling Like the Bengals?

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: None Yet

Back in September no one that knew anything about football picked the Bengals to do more than scratch the litter in their cat box. Low and behold, the managed to ride Cedric Benson and a talented defense to become the division champs. They even managed to ice it a week early allowing them to rest a lot of their players in the final week of the season (a total spanking  by the team that ejected them from the playoffs).

The only question mark for the Colts at that time was how Jim Caldwell would manage to put his stamp on Tony Dungy’s [...]

MVP and Coach of the Year in Indianapolis?

AUTHOR: Travis Pulver | IN: Colts | COMMENTS: None Yet

Peyton Manning winning the MVP comes as no surprise to anyone that live in Indianapolis; we think Peyton should be the MVP every year. This year there were not too many that could argue with our appraisal of the Colt leader as Manning got 39 ½ of 50 votes for MVP of the NFL in 2009. Second place was Drew Brees with 7 ½.

Looking at the statistics alone it is hard to argue with Manning being given a 4th MVP award. Only one quarterback threw for more yards than Peyton’s 4500 yards. His completion percentage of 68.8% ranks behind only Drew [...]
