Prior to Thursday's game, Colts owner Jim Irsay told the NFL Network that the only way Peyton Manning wouldn't play for the Colts next year is if he does not recover from the neck injury that has kept him out all season.
Irsay's Colts then showed he wasn't joking with an ...

And you thought Vernon Gholston was the biggest DE/LB hybrid first round flop in Saturday's Jets-Colts playoff game.
Sure Gholston, the No. 6 pick in 2008, was inactive. But that's an epic upgrade from the contributions of Colts DE Jerry Hughes.
According to Colts president Bill Polian, Hughes, the 31st pick in ...

I already know this is going to get me in trouble with those crazy Colts fans in Middle Indiana. You know what? I don't care.
If there's one player Colts fans refuse to let people rag on aside from Peyton Manning it has to be the oft-injured Bob Sanders. They love ...

Few outside Indianapolis or the greater metropolitan area probably know who Jim Sorgi is or what he's done for the last six seasons.

A few leftover notes from this year's Super Bowl:
- How fitting is it that the two players most responsible for breaking Colts fans' hearts in this year's Super Bowl were rooted on by the very same fans in their collegiate careers?
Purdue alum Drew Brees was the MVP of the game, ...

So I’m sitting in this hot tub with three other middle-aged dudes, getting drunk, having a blast and then BAM! all of the sudden the water starts spinning and the next thing I know we’re in 1986.

Every group has one. That one nut. A crazed fan who spouts off stats more than The Situation lifts his shirt.
I have a friend who qualifies. He is without a doubt the most ridiculous sports fan I've ever encountered. I swear, if this kid put half as much effort into ...

On Thursday night’s “SportsCenter” tease, I heard a sound byte from Brett Favre when he was asked what he thought about the reports there is a “schism” in the Vikings locker room.
Favre’s response: “I don’t even know what that means.”
