Why 1969 is rooting for the Colts......



Now I am a Giant's fan living in Philly. I know ALL about ignorant, rude and obnoxious fans but this......this was extra. And I heard the fans in Chicago were telling the Saints fans to "go home and wait for their FEMA checks" and "get back to your trailers". Nice.

I know my brown people in Chitown didn't act like this.....but overall....I'm pulling for Tony Dungy in the Soul Bowl. As MAMA 1969 always says....GOD don't like UGLY.

Wow. It is just a game. I can not believe people get so virulent response.

I have a more shallow reason to root for the Colts. I like that Dungy's wife is black. I know it shouldn't matter, but I am rooting for him.

:( ok I'm pissed now.. I didn't hear about these comments.. probably because I lost interest while I'm happy that the "soul bowl" as its been dubbed is making history.. like you I'm a GIANTS AND JETS fan.. :) but if I had to choose I'm a die hard JETS fan.. but I digress.. since my teams weren't there it didn't matter..

but now I got a bad taste in my mouth for Chicago..

What the...? Some people can be so ignorant. That really takes the spirit right out of the game. And he has so much nerve to stand there grinning and proud of the A** he's making of himself. So sad.

That's so f*ckin awful! I thought Red Sox and Pats fans were bad. But, WTF?

I'm from Philly....I know first hand how ignorant fans can be. But that there sign is a new low!

I'm rooting for Tony Dungy because he has paved the way for Lovie, Herm and the Steeler's new head coach (can't think of his name). They were all his assistants at various times! Tony deserves this one.

Oh my goodness, I had no idea folks were saying this in Chicago. I'm from there, but please don't think all Chicagoans are like that. Anyway, I'm rooting for the Colts too, even though I'm from Chicago because I absolutely love Tony Dungy and Peyton Manning. Dungy and Manning have been through so much, and I believe they deserve a ring.

I was rooting for the Colts just on the simple fact that I think they are a better team (sorry Rob Mack), but seeing that gives me even more reason to root for them.

I live in New York. I've been to Yankee-Red Sox games. I've been to Knicks games where fans heckle the home team just as bad as the visitors. I can honest say that I haven't heard anything as insensitive as what that guy had on that sign.

Damn the first amendment, that sign should not have been allowed in the stadium.

My sister sent out a mass email telling people to root for the Colts after that came out. People are just insensitive and stupid. Nothing else can be said!

People can be so ignant! Almost making me ashamed to be from Chicago. Well, not quite because ignant people are everywhere!

Although, I must admit I have a hard time believing that especially since most people in Chicago derive from the South. I can't imagine anyone saying that.

GO BEARS!

as a die hard raiders fan who wasn't even able to enjoy the season due to the raiders poor performance i must say that i know about unruly fans...we have our fair share of them.

although i think urlacher is the truth, i'm for Dungy because after losing his son last year, coming so close but not getting to the super bowl and following up this season with a stellar team i just wanna see him win!

to be strong in the face of adversity is admirable.
