I don't wanna jinx anything, but I'm really looking forward to a Colts-Paties rematch in Foxborough

Come on, Colts! You don't want to see some hideous-looking trendoid team in the playoffs, you want to see the classy, traditional, legendary Cleveland Browns, right?

GO COLTS!

Tennesse fans, I've played 4 meaningful years of football in your state! Ohio will not witness any pro football in January (as usual), thanks to the Browns choke job last week in Cincy! TITANS WIN! TITANS WIN! I'll be the biggest Titan fan in the dome tonight!

I am really upset that we are not playing our starters. I don't think it is fair to either Cleveland or the Titans. The Titans shouldn't win just because we play second string and the Browns shouldn't lose for the same reason. I think it is unsportman of us to play anyone or anything less than our best.

Remember what happened when we rested in 2005? Nightmare.

I'd be more upset if Manning blew out a knee or Reggie Wayne broke an arm tonight. Besides, the backups also need playing time going into the playoffs. With luck, the Colts will be up 24-3 when the starters sit down, and the final ends up 31-10, so it will all be moot.
