Oh So Colt!
How can you not love it? Look at that pretty Colts blue!
I was putting polyurethane on the steps in our new house - had the game on TV in the background. Crowd was quiet as Pitt. was driving then I heard this godawful roar and felt sick to my stomach. Ran in to see the replay of Bettis fumbling and the guy basically having a return for TD until he let himself get tackled.
Honest to god... single handedly the 2nd wildest Colts playoff game I have been too.
That was the year we sat our starters when we were going for perfection. That was THE year. Game was stupid, we started soooooo flat and was getting pounded. Started making a comeback and Peyton throws the "incomplete pass" to Troy P. Well, they call it incomplete. Crowd is legit buzzing. We score and draw it really close. Steelers drive down like it is clock work... Bettis fumbles on the one by an once in a lifetime tackle by Gary Brackett. Nick Harper (who was stabbed by his girlfriend the night before) picks up the ball and has a clear field to the left or right... instead he runs towards Big Ben like a complete fool.
We throw a deep ball to Reggie, that was ABSOLUTELY pass interference... no call. HA! Then freaking Vandy misses a 40 yarder by 40 yards. I was crushed. I remember just sitting there thinking to myself that I would never watch football again and we would never win a championship.
Sorry... I just got angry and had to type it out!!!!
