[ QUOTE ] I've come to rely on this, calling it the "Needle Princip" but I think you have to give Needle's posting a solid B+ [/ QUOTE ] So if my posting wasn't graded on your curved scale it would actually be more like...an F? That is assuming you use the same curve that you use on the Colts special teams. [/ QUOTE ] Oh come on, I was being sarcastic, no need to be rude. You know talk of the COlts special teams without including a "B+" hurts my feelings. Cody |

Re: NFL Week 10 Sunday Night Football: Colts@ Chargers
[ QUOTE ]
There's a reason I said it could vary greatly based on conditions and was hesitant to even try to put a number on it. Of course, the best kickers, it won't matter, but sometimes it does. Tonight may have been one of those times. I also gave Vinatieri credit for that exact same kick from the 24 because that's about as bad as I've ever seen him kick. That same kick from 40 would've been so wide right it isn't even funny. I can't win when I try, I can't win when I don't. [/ QUOTE ] But WE win when you dont. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] And that second sentence is priceless. [/ QUOTE ] ok, and be serious here. if a man were to approach you with 100k in a briefcase and say "do you think more PI calls go in the colts favor than against them vs the leauge average? answer corretly and this money is yours" what would you say? [/ QUOTE ] Not having done any research I'd say "Well Sublime says it's true so SHIPPPPPP IT!!" Honestly, I asked you for a study, some numbers, hell give me a biased article, anything. You saying it means nothing (unless some guy is offering me 100k and I have nothing else to go on). Cody [/ QUOTE ] im saying based on watching games with them in it. could i be wrong? maybe, but i dont think i am. i would probably bet a small amount of money that i am right just based on polian being a notorious 'official coacher' and general whinebag about anything that goes against his team. |

Cody [/ QUOTE ] stats like that don't grow on trees so i am making an assumption that they get more calls in their favor. i ASSUME the majority of non colts fans feel the same way. i mean cmon man. you are combining a) historically great QB b) very good and well respected WR's c) a GM who has zero qualms with politicking on his teams behalf to have rules enforces more strictly (probably more strictly than warranted) and you dont think calls are more likely to swing more in their favor? this is w/o watching the games....after watching some of the calls they get downfield, i have hard time thinking they arent beneficiaries of the above combination. |

Re: NFL Week 10 Sunday Night Football: Colts@ Chargers
This thread is hilarious. Colts fans, I realize your season is probably over but the Pacers are off to a pretty sweet start so that's something.
Cody, learn how to make a reply properly by TRIMMING the quotes you're responding to. Jesus, that nappy posting style of yours reminds me of the crotchal region of chunky 70s porn stars. |
