I was fortunate to win two tickets to the game! It was my & my wife’s first playoff game live, and what a game it was!! It was a very exciting and thrilling experience. My voice is still hoarse from all the shouting and screaming; and well there was some jumping and dancing too. The crowd was wild!!

I agree, both Dungy and Irsay were generous in their respective speeches and mentioned the fans and community.

But I really liked the way Peyton Manning behaved. The crowd cheered him each time he was shown on the large replay
screens; each time you could tell from his eyes & body language that he realized it was for him. But he only smiled graciously; there was no hint of false-pride or overconfidence or “I-am-better-than-anyone-else”. I really liked his down to earth manner!

GO COLTS!!!!

No problem about the blog mention! I suppose that is what the whole thing was about anyways – link love!

I liked your football post. I didn’t know about the coach being a Christian. I agree with you and wish that the news would show that aspect of Christianity. However, I do believe that even if the media won’t show it directly, it shows in other ways, even if they are very subtle ways.

I didn’t say it was ’statistically’ the greatest comeback.

A would love to enjoy steak with you at Gibson’s in Chicago, Your win over New England was almost as memorable as the Jim O’Brien field goal kick 36 years ago. The only Colts fans that will recall that one live in Baltimore. A correction on your post, The greatest comeback in playoff history was the Buffalo Bills beating Houston Oilers, look it up!

As a black American I am proud and happy for the 2 brothers coaching in the super bowl.Many of us rooted for Coach Dungy in Tampa Bay and if The Bears were not in, I may have rooted for him again. My hope is, with some of the high rolling Colts fan I know may feel for a brother and get me a ticket to the Super Bowl

Thanks for pointing out the Christian aspect of the coaches. Not
enough is ever shared by the networks on what makes these coaches
great. I did see a story about Manning’s prayers on the sidelines,
but that was probably “safe” as most people could understand that!

Thanks again!

It was a good game and I’m glad they won… I just wish it was New Orleans they were playing against.

But I’ve gotta make one correction…

The greatest comeback in playoff history is still that stupid Oilers meltdown… 32 point lead blown… doh!

Last night was the largest comeback in a championship game.
