It’s only in the 50+% success rate if the receiving team is not expecting it, which was Payton’s motivation for doing it. He noticed that the up men in Indy’s cover team were lazy douchebags who were turning around and running as soon as the kicker approached the ball, so he rolled the dice on a pretty good bet and was lucky only in the sense that whatever trauma the Colts applied to Chris Reis’ groin area, he still held onto the ball he recovered.

The call on the 2-pt conversion isn’t even disputable, the challenge got it exactly right. The part the Humps cited about having to maintain possession through the catch, even in the end zone, refers to when the ball is caught in the end zone and the receiver goes to the ground. Once he catches it, and has it in both hands while it’s stretched across the goal line, two points, bitches. If it’s never kicked out of his hands, he never loses it. Essentially, it’s like he’s touched down, not that he needed to be. It happened so fast that I can understand the ref on the field missing it even though he was right there, but the right call was made to reverse it and it’s not even close. That was an excellently officiated game (read: not many flags at all), and there’s absolutely no creedence to give to their horseshit whining.

@twoeightnine: It says that if the player is going to the ground in the act of catching a pass, he must maintain control after he touches the ground. Not during, but after. In other words, he must keep the ball until he comes to rest.

That pretty much did it for me as well. I read a couple of postgame columns over there (never been to the site before, don’t know a thing about them) and thought, “Gee, they don’t seem so bad. Not as whiny as I expected”. Then they write a Simmons-sized analysis of perhaps the least important play in the fucking game (and they’re wrong about it, too).
This is Boston-style navel gazing at its worst: endless rehashing of minutiae that’s been long forgotten by everyone else, but assumes transcendent importance for whiny dickheads who just can’t let shit go.

Mannings still a HoFer but wow the Colts got exposed yesterday. In retrospect I have to admit I was dead wrong about them from listening to the hype and only using the AFC title game as reference since it was the only wire to wire colts game I saw all year. Hindsighr tells me what we shoulda known since November… the balance of power shifted this year, the first time since 98. The NFC had 4 better teams than the AFC Champ. That simple. I can’t believe I missed it, bit I’ll admit I was wrong.

I love how the stampedeblue ref post trashed Pereria’s comments, then quotes the rulebook, then twists the rulebook to suit their own needs.
Fortunately, that was really the only arguable call in the entire game. Even posession from the onside kick wasn’t really disputed despite being under a pile of 15 guys (longest duration ball-recovery pileup I’ve ever seen).

All that game yesterday proved is that the Saints are the champions, and your team is not. And in fact, since your team lacked the sack to try to go undefeated, they won’t even be remembered as a good team. A few years down the road they’ll be “whoever the Saints beat that year.” You don’t get ten games. You get one. And your team, and your hero, shit the bed. Suck those balls.
Fuck me for those typos. TTG’s Tits for the win.

“However, anyone who thinks the Super Bowl proved the Saints were clearly a superior team and that, given ten games, the outcome would be, at most, 6-4 in advantage of one team or the other, can suck my balls.”
Is this a masterful troll or are there people who actually say shit like this seriously?
I think the final score demonstrated the clearly superior team. Why is this so hard for people to understand?
@ TTG: No, but they are made of brass, weigh a ton and only pale in comparison to my cock. :)

Are your balls covered in cocktail sauce from St. Elmo’s?
You all are a class act.
It was a good game. Saints played better for most of it, probably deserved to win. That’s how it goes. And I can take some solace (not that I need much – good on the Saints and New Orleans) in the fact that the game more or less hinged on a hell of a gutsy call (props to Payton) that has an approximately 50% success rate.

“Where is Monkey Business?”
My bet? Face down in a gutter, covered in his own vomit, pants around his ankles, bleeding from his rectum, screaming into an empty bottle of scotch: ” i still love you pey pey”
Where is Monkey Business?
Rumor has it that he watched the game in Boston, where he was on business. Lord, what I would have given to see him and his Pey-Pey jersey run into Tommy and a bunch of his boys.
Where is Monkey Business?
As much as I wanted to see the Colts and Peyton win, Peyton is the one whose late-game mistakes cost the team a possible win. All the more reason he should have several important new additions to manningface.com.
Where’s the screencap of the crazy death stare he had on the sideline during the end of the 2nd/3rd quarter?
He had a look that said “I’m gonna club a fucking baby seal if I don’t get on the field soon.”
Please, KSKers, please show some of the Monkey Business-type e-mails you get asking for Peyton to be the Meast.
I’m an Indiana University student. Tracy Porter is one of maybe two or three alumni we have in the NFL. The front page of our student newspaper was just that NYT picture, printed at an enormous size. It’s possibly the most glorious front page in the history of the Indiana Daily Student. I’m laminating it.
It turns out that the smartest quarterback who ever lived was just a guy who has been in the same system with the same coordinator for 13 years.
(Sigh.) I miss Monkey Business, that what I miss.
Oh boo hoo Colts fans, you lost in the Super Bowl. Ask the Chargers about playing in the Super Bowl, I bet most Detroit/Tampa Bay/Texan/Jets fans would love to see their team lose in the Super Bowl, that means they freaking made it that far. This is like having the smallest yacht, or the poorest billionaire. Be happy the Colts got as far as they did, honestly I don’t know how the Colts won as many as they did this year, they sucked, and no way Peyton was MVP, and I love the Colts, but I’m not deluding myself how great they are.
Why all the whining over at Stampede Blue? Is it really that hard to believe the Colts got outplayed by a better more balanced team, whose coach has brass basketball-sized balls?
C’mon, show some sportsmanship and thank the Saints for delivering a much deserved ass-kicking.

Somehow this is all Monkey Business’ fault. Time to go eat away my sorrows.

The sad trombone noise in my head is deafening. And oh, so delicious.
Peyton can wipe away his tears with a stack of $100 bills. I mean, I’d hate my professional failures to be broadcast to a billion people, but… I don’t make his salary, either. So… suck it up, Pey-Pey. You’ll get over it.
I’d like to see a KSK “Who Ya Got?” between Reggie Bush and Hank Baskett.
Trampy WAG whose Vajayjay is plastered all over the Internet? Yes. Yes.
/ [Door flies open] Garcia: Hey, guys – me too!
Simmons douchy ass already tweeted this last night but I do love the joy in watching Colts fans suffer.
Did anyone see @RaheemBrock on Twitter (tweets protected) “not want to take anything away from the Colts” but then whine about how he was held and got no love from the refs? Maybe he’ll be a guest blogger at the Stampede later today…
WHO DAT! WHO DAT SAY “EXTRA CHEESE ON DEY TRIPLE WHOPPER?”
The Fat Humps, dat is who.
… and it’s good that the Saints beat the Vikes because (hate aside) Favre would have sucked in the Super Bowl due to his ankle. Thus the Colts would win in a blowout. Thus we’d now be stuck with all the sycophants labeling Manning “the best QB of all time”. Sorry, Pey-Pey… gotta wait another year to challenge Unitas and Montana.
The call on the 2-pt conversion isn’t even disputable, the challenge got it exactly right. The part the Humps cited about having to maintain possession through the catch, even in the end zone, refers to when the ball is caught in the end zone and the receiver goes to the ground. Once he catches it, and has it in both hands while it’s stretched across the goal line, two points, bitches. If it’s never kicked out of his hands, he never loses it. Essentially, it’s like he’s touched down, not that he needed to be. It happened so fast that I can understand the ref on the field missing it even though he was right there, but the right call was made to reverse it and it’s not even close. That was an excellently officiated game (read: not many flags at all), and there’s absolutely no creedence to give to their horseshit whining.
GODDAMMIT DONALD!!!
@twoeightnine: It says that if the player is going to the ground in the act of catching a pass, he must maintain control after he touches the ground. Not during, but after. In other words, he must keep the ball until he comes to rest.
this collection of words : sound logic :: goatse : aesthetic beauty
@porky
Good call on NFC being the stronger conference this year. It took me past halfway thru the season to believe it, but I think it was true. Colts really didn’t have many tough matchups in regular season, including a weak division, plus two 9-7 playoff opponents. Finally met a juggernaut yesterday.

Colts Fans: Delusional Doucheknobs or Delusionalest Doucheknobs?
Let the Fat Humps bitch all they want. They lost, and throwing a tantrum about it is apparently all they can do over there. This will be 10x funnier when Caldwell turns into a modern-day Seifert or Switzer and runs a “dynasty” (or at least “Annoyingly Competitive Franchise”) into the ground.
I love how they’re whining about a 2point conversion when they lost by 14.
That pretty much did it for me as well. I read a couple of postgame columns over there (never been to the site before, don’t know a thing about them) and thought, “Gee, they don’t seem so bad. Not as whiny as I expected”. Then they write a Simmons-sized analysis of perhaps the least important play in the fucking game (and they’re wrong about it, too).
This is Boston-style navel gazing at its worst: endless rehashing of minutiae that’s been long forgotten by everyone else, but assumes transcendent importance for whiny dickheads who just can’t let shit go.
Mannings still a HoFer but wow the Colts got exposed yesterday. In retrospect I have to admit I was dead wrong about them from listening to the hype and only using the AFC title game as reference since it was the only wire to wire colts game I saw all year. Hindsighr tells me what we shoulda known since November… the balance of power shifted this year, the first time since 98. The NFC had 4 better teams than the AFC Champ. That simple. I can’t believe I missed it, bit I’ll admit I was wrong.
@289:
I love how the stampedeblue ref post trashed Pereria’s comments, then quotes the rulebook, then twists the rulebook to suit their own needs.
Fortunately, that was really the only arguable call in the entire game. Even posession from the onside kick wasn’t really disputed despite being under a pile of 15 guys (longest duration ball-recovery pileup I’ve ever seen).
ghostsofsc, you just nailed it. The 2000′s Colts are the 1990′s Braves. Always competitive. Horrible, annoying, entitled fans. And their lone championship being utterly anticlimactic and more forgettable than all of the times they lost.
@85
I was going to say that first the Fat Humps stole Baltimore’s team, then they stole our favorite excuse for losing. For next year’s playoffs, the Humps will be telling us about the great crabcakes at Steak ‘N Shake.
@papa-
Just wait till Drew sees Perloff’s column at si.com…he makes Petey seems rational and intellegent.
I love how they’re whining about a 2point conversion when they lost by 14.
Why has this not received the standard Drew treatment? http://www.stampedeblue.com/2010/2/5/1296896/stampede-blue-has-a-beer-with#comments
Anyone wanna take bets on if we’ll ever see Monkey Business again?
And if we keep giving Stampede Blue attention, they’re gonna start believing that they’re relevant.
I want to thank Rex Ryan for his positive impact on the Saints. those guys came to KILL. and ONSIDE KICK. and PICK 6 for the WIN.
I totally imagined that Rex Ryan fishing hook picture when that pick 6 happened. :)
The fat humps in the land of shit seem to be having a hard time accepting Pey-Pey’s epic choke.
Shrimp cocktails!
Did someone say ref screwing?
It goes without saying that Polian’s bullying of the Rules Committee has already begun. And to think that the fat humps haven’t even begun whining about how Manning was “blocked in the back” on the INT return for a TD.
@85-
Sadly, you forgot to mention the postseason performance of the Atlanta Braves.
//puts on 1995 world champs teeshirt and weeps…fuck the twins.
@289 – Wow, talk about god damn delusional. The guy kicked the fucking ball out of his hands while he’s holding it over the goal line. First they played the role of Pats fans, now the Humps are stealing Seahawks fans’ gig. Motherfuck, can’t Indianapolis come up with anything of their own?

I had 2 female first-timers ask what was wrong with Pey-Pey’s head during the game. Dude, buy a helmet that fits.
I’d love to see the sitemaster stats for both sites since the fat humps got their panties in a bunch. My guess is KSK is still drawing about 10 times the traffic they are.
I eagerly await MB’s 75K word essay on how this defeat doesn’t affect Manning’s legacy and how the refs screwed the Colts and how…etc etc.
