I couldn't have said it any better myself

The great thing about Indy's loss to New Orleans is how much it exposed so many Colts fans as living in glass houses.  Remember after our Super Bowl loss the the New York Giants?  Most rival fans, especially Colts fans, were ecstatic.  So ecstatic that they opined endlessly about how our Patriots sucked, how Tom Brady was a choke artist, and how the blueprint to beat the Patriots had finally been written.

Now that the shoe is on the other foot, our rival fanbase from the midwest is reeling against accusations that Peyton Manning is a choke artist (a team wins or a team loses, right?) and the idea that the blueprint to beat the Colts has been written.  Let me tell you something sports fans, arrogance breeds losing.  If you ever think you're so good that you can't lose, a 10-6 wildcard will clean your clock.

Bill Polian's arrogance is legendary, but now he just comes off as, well, sad and a sore loser.  Blaming his offensive line and special teams...IN PUBLIC...is unprofessional coming from a front office executive.  I could go on and on, but let me point you to our Saints blog, Canal Street Chronicles and a fine story You lost me here, Bill.
