Patriots at Dolphins


Hey everybody,

Unfortunately,I won't be able to watch the Titans-Colts game this week (alive) because I'm traveling with to Miami with my brother, and  we're going to the Dolphins-Pats game. I'll be a few seats over the tunnel where our beloved Patrtiots will come out (and in) and I was thinking about making a sign or something to show my love to Bill Bellichick and Co. Any ideas? It could be like "Going for it again, BB?". I know you are creative, specially when it's something that involves the New England Patriots, so any idea is welcomed. And also, if you see a guy with a Peyton Manning jersey on a Dolphins game near one of the tunnels, that's me! But I kinda doubt it because camera men will look for Dolphins-Pats fans, unless my sign is really funny haha.

Thanks a lot and go Colts!

NFL.com's mediocre training camp preview

I just checked NFL.com's Colts training camp preview and found what in my opinion is a mediocre job.

Here's the link: http://www.nfl.com/trainingcamp/story?id=09000d5d81113675&template=with-video-with-comments&confirm=true

TOP POSITION  BATTLE
Starter still needed in the slot The Colts like three-receiver packages, and the slot job appears to be open. Since Anthony Gonzalez is moving outside to replace released veteran Marvin Harrison, Pierre Garcon and Roy Hall are left to fight it out for the spot. Also keep an eye on outside linebacker, where Freddie Keiaho takes on Tyjuan Hagler for the starting job. Keiaho was cut during the offseason but re-signed, and Hagler couldn't stay healthy last season, missing seven games.

So...Since when is Keiaho starting? Was Tyjuan Hagler a starter last year (except for injury reasons)? Do they know anything about Phillip Wheeler? Did we cut Keiaho?

The rest of the information is "good", but by reading this, I infer that the guy who did this does not know anything about the Colts except for what he read 5 minutes ago. I'm not saying he needs to be an expert, but if you look for Colts' weaknesess and camp battles not only this year but almost every year, you'll find stuff about our LBs...And we've heard a lot about Phillip Wheeler and how he's expected to be a starter this year! It isn't that hard, specially when you work for NFL.com!

KC Joyner's new victim: Joe Addai

Just when we thought it was a personal KC Joyner vs Peyton Manning thing, this guy takes a shot on a second Colts player in one week...Here's what he said:

http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/23/a-closer-look-at-addais-productivity/

In other words, it wasn’t Addai’s lack of productivity on busted plays that hindered him — he couldn’t get the ball up the field enough on plays he should have been able to. Some of that is probably attributable to a knee that required off-season surgery, but since the Colts were concerned enough to draft Donald Brown in the first round, I would consider Addai a risky fantasy prop at either the No. 1 or No. 2 running back slots on a roster.

 

What do you think? Does he hate the Colts? Is he actually true?

Costa Rica 3 - US 1

This could be the most off topic post, ever! I Some of you may be asking what am I talking about, but I guess at least one or two of you did watch the game (at least the first minute and a half, before our first goal, HA!).

I think the game showed a superior home team, but that's not even close from meaning Costa Rica is a superior team overall. I think we're a great home team, played very offensively (more than expected), and had a good scheme and game plan. U.S.A. was a bit lost, felt the pressure not only in the first minutes of the game but before, when they entered the stadium; they just couldn't handle it. I was a very big mismatch in that sense. It was funny seeing Landon Donovan's ritual before shooting the penalty kick, and even in this kind of games he shows he's a heck of a player and a leader. In conclusion, United States is still a better team than Costa Rica, but we proved we are for real and a serious contender for participating in the World Cup.  FIFA should give us a boost in the next rankings...

What do you think? Don't worry, I expect a lot of "I don't care" replies, lol.

GO COLTS! =)

Colts Website

I visit the Colts official website (colts.com) on a daily basis, as I imagine many of you do. And it is no secret that it just simply sucks, specially if you compare it to other teams' websites (see Jaguars, Dolphins, Ravens, etc). I know it isn't the most important thing or anything, but I'd really like to see an attractive and more easy to use site for all of us. For example, go to "Tickets" in the upper menu and try to click on "Manage your account".It's stupidly hard to do!

I've been wondering if we, as a group of Colts fans, could do something about it. Any ideas?

ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky is saying Colts WR Anthony Gonzalez is a candidate for "breakout player for '09". Some people said he was a breakout player for 2008; and he was very reliable, but not a STAR. What do you think? Is he going to reach the 1000 this season?
