I feel as a hard boiled Football Fan, a citizen who thinks highly of Indianapolis better than his real hometown and that's still no BS, and those Montreal to Miami citizens that lived vicariously through their teams good and bad days, and everyday, I see no humor in the Colts return to falloff.
In the Indianapolis era, they spent more time trying to return to Super Bowl/World Championship Glory than actually enjoying it. Other than the 4 League or World Championships from the Baltimore era and the definition of battling Bart Starr as a position like Payton Manning battled Tom Brady like some Middle Linebackers was no stretch.
And, the Indy Colts tied Landry's Cowboys for successive NFL Playoffs. And, the Wisconsin man is trying to do right by making 10 Playoffs before New England takes that ball from them in the Packers.
And, where Deflategate really has done havoc to and more than once is the Indianapolis Community and its Football Culture. And, I feel it is an invitation to have a once and for all reckoning of Colts History and having the same attitude for the Football Museum like the Science Museum because not everyone wants to feel comfortable with tangibly bringing up Football History.
I mean, we've had annual summits on Duke Football long before this. And, archiving on and offline is a full time process, and I feel sports history, no matter how great or rotten of person is, needs a serious archivalness. And it's problematic when the will of the fan has no budget to buy new stuff, much less buy throwbacks, and, just letting anyone with cash buy in and out adds nothing. I think 1 Day not to fire Grigson and Pagano is only doing a Summer of Aggravation and I wonder who will buy the Colts out of Irsay leadership if that came up tomorrow?
