Falcon Freddie Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Got this from CBSSports.com. "Colts hang 'AFC Finalist' banner at stadium, Internet laughs at themLink: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/25211107/colts-hang-afc-finalist-banner-at-stadium-internet-laughs-at-themCan you imagine the sneers generated if the Falcons were to hang a banner for participating in Super Bowl XXXIII or the 2012 NFC Championship game? Should the Colts be let off any lighter? A team should only commemorate those contests and titles they win. You don't get any points for trying; attempting to just makes you look pathetic.It why those "awards" given out in the second grade mostly went into the trash immediately after school. "Alright class, everyone's getting a ribbon for participation. Yes, everyone's a winner!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtybyrdGA Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 If you are the Super Bowl runner-up, that's fine. You win the AFC or NFC.... but not if you lost in the conference game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimitiveJN Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Yes I agree, the media would have had a field day if it was the Falcons who did that. We wouldn't hear the end of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lornoth Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 People complained about fans boasting with '10 yard from a SB' and now the Colts themselves are basically doing it. Except they were more like 400 yards from a SB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People didn't like when fans did it and the Colts organization has been doing it for years. It's just that much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
