The Colts complain about the field in New England so the Pats "retaliate" and raise this issue. Gamesmanship that means verry little in the end. Judging by the number of players these two teams list on their injury reports each believe in every perceived edge they can find.
It's all a bunch of bs imo.

Good thing the latest NFL expansion moved the Colts out of the AFC East. Imagine if these two teams still played twice a year. 
HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great jab at a team that historically cannot beat the Patriots...............but instead of trying to improve/devise a way to counteract the Patriots..........attempts to change some rule every year to nullify a perceived advantage.
Attn Bill Polian: The reason the Colts lose to the Patriots every year is defense! ......................but when you invest 70% of the salary cap in overpaying your WR's/QB it's not possible to have one!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very true. The colts are a good football team and Polian is a very good GM. I don't think this type of jabbing back and forth reflects badly on either team, it more just good natured fun. Like the Clinton people breaking all the "W"s on the White House keyboards before Bush took over.

I think it's pathetic, cowardly and outside the game. Is everything fair now? Perhaps the Colts should retaliate by assassinating assistant coaches or something.

You're referring to a professional sports general manager and member of the NFL Competition Committee physically assaulting a member of the Jets organization in a hallway, correct?

That was pretty clumsy

what trophies did they give the Pats after beating the Colts? Hmmm..PS: I'm actually a Pats fan. I just think we shouldn't be such arrogant little s***ts all the time
But back to the original topic...I think this is all in jest and I don't know if I see Pollian minding that muchAre the Pats actually going to have to change their turf? I missed that bit of news.

Live in the now Pats homers... The era is over. Just as it is for the Cowboys, Niners and Raiders of way back when.

Polian does really get into the game though. I've seen him in the press box at the RCA Dome throwing chairs and screaming about something he didn't like. From what I heard it's pretty common for him to come unglued.
Quite amusing really.

At least Doug Flutie retired so we don't have to worry about Polian calling for his legs to be broken. 
But another question is why would the NFL try so hard to cover this up? If this was a player he'd likely be fined(or even suspended) and it would be all over the news and maybe the same for a coach. Are Polian's relationships with high brass NFL people giving him some special treatment? He gets off easy and they go out of their way to cover it up. Double-standard? This an NFLPA issue?

Colts fans don't come on here talking smack. The Pats try to make a mockery of the league by the disgraceful condition of their field, their hiding every injury from the injury report, and now something stupid like this.
They are acting petty in all cases. "Oh, but it gives them an advantage..." blah blah blah.
Win with dignity, earn respect.
I think it is safe to say that the general sentiment on these boards is that Colts fans pretty much keep their smack talk in check.
Now for the Pats fans....

Isn't the AFC Championship trophy a trophy?Bottom line, Polian has demonstrated he's a jerk and has gone out of his way to whine about a team he usually can't beat on the field. So the Pats tweaking him back is kind of petty, but also pretty funny.
Which board are you referring to? Because on the football guys message board they most certainly do.

I agree that some Colts fans on here are pretty humble. However, the Colts have listed 21 players as questionable, coming out of their bye week no less. You might want to find the strike-through button on this one.

yeah from what I understand neither team even bothered to prepare for that game. Each team started back ups and the rumor that Manning and Brady were going to switch teams at half was probably true. That's why Tom was so grouchy at the end of the game. He wanted to run the Colts no huddle. It was a completely meaningless game.Kit Fisto said:

It's ovah when we say it's ovah.
They said the same thing after the Pats failedto make the playoffs the year after beating the Rams in 2001.Yeah, pretty much how you want your GM reacting to situations.Polian is a fool. When he's not crying about NE pushing his guys around, he's pushing employees of other franchises around. My guess......that Jets employee was a 19 year old kid weighing about a buck twenty. Polian is such a tough guy.
