Quote:Hanging an "AFC Finalist" banner is ridiculous. It's a participation ribbon. Hanging an "AFC South Champion" banner would have made sense and not made the Colts a laughingstock (anymore so than Grigson has already). It feels a bit like a stab at the Patriots, which doesn't help them at all and certainly won't help when the Pats roll into town for Brady's return.

 

51-3 Patriots. Chalk it up now.

 

Don't get me wrong, I think it's silly as well, but the only reason this is truly being talked about is because of the Boston media/fans trying to grasp at any and everything to deflect attention away from them cheating. I guess my problem is, why aren't fans up in arms about the 1995 finalist banner or the 2003 finalist banner? My point exactly.

 

Also, I find it HILARIOUS people are claiming "Patriots are going to roll into town and destroy the Colts!!!" I CANNOT tell you how many times fans/media/casual fans said the same thing about Peyton when he first came to Indy to face the Colts. Now, the Patriots very well may win, but I guarantee you the Colts will come to play. Don't you think they're a little upset as well that they got knocked out by cheaters?
