Question for the Colts: "Do you know what 'nemesis' means?"


In case you slept through your mythology classes (and the movie Snatch) it is "A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent."

Back on December 27th, the Indianapolis Colts decided, since they already had a lock on home field advantage throughout the playoffs, that they didn't need to win the football game they happened to be playing against the New York Jets. With a five-point lead, the pulled their starters, and let the Jets beat them 29-15. After all, so the reasoning went: what do we possibly have to lose?

If the Jets had lost that game, they would have been out of the playoffs. Instead, as a wild card, they have now defeated two division champions (Cincinnati and San Diego), and go back to Indianapolis for the AFC Championship game next Sunday.

Nobody gives the Jets a snowball's chance in hell of winning in Cincy San Diego Indy.

If the Jets win, I won't have anyone to hate!
