LOL. I’m petty. The Colts legacy should be in Baltimore. Like I said, for him, my dislike is but an accident of birth. I don’t like Elway either, I believe his threats to leave football and play baseball instead of going to the then Baltimore Colts, was a factor is the Colts getting out of town.

It’s just part of the baggage I carry having been born and spending my early years in sight of the lights at Memorial Stadium.

The Baltimore Colts were my fav team from the ‘60’s!

Was very shocked and upset when they moved to Indianapolis - and that’s where I grew up! I left there in ‘67.......when they moved, they ceased to be my fav team, and I became a Cowboys fan. Jerry Jones killed that....... ;-) Cowboys would be fine if they could get rid of their owner!

But I finally accepted that Indianapolis is where the Colts were.....and became a fan of the team, not the city - even though I grew up there.

Now I’m a fan without a team......like Green Bay, Steelers a bit (another team that can’t get its act together), and Bronco’s as well as Colts.....but not hot about anyone.......
