I just saw it and voted. Outstandingly funny. I voted for the "moron" line. - Bob M Thu, 17 Dec 2009 11:28:56 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4654 Put up a PayPal button! We will all donate! Thanks for all the hard work. - Zach Winningham Wed, 16 Dec 2009 17:53:43 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4653 I agree that the analysis has been great, but still worry that too much weight is given to the stats. I like them for trends, but things like Pythagorean wins are far too rearward looking. There is really no way to predict what will happen on any given sunday, which is is why this streak is so incredible. - J-DC Wed, 16 Dec 2009 16:54:24 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4652 Also, think about this for a story. Research the 1940 mitchell indiana (my home town) high school basketball team. - AnHero Wed, 16 Dec 2009 16:07:13 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4651 Totally agree. I don't consider it pandering, and don't want you to ever pander. I would be happy to donate, expecially in this crappy economy where I make an embarrassingly good living for my and my wife. Just keep up the good work and great analysis. - AnHero Wed, 16 Dec 2009 16:03:13 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4650 I second the paypal button. - jpjandrade Wed, 16 Dec 2009 15:22:30 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4643 You'd be surprised what a simple Paypal donate button could do for ya... - Guy.

The day will come when you can do your part to keep 18to88 alive. I have a couple of book situations developing. If such a day comes that I get one of them out (and that day will come), remember all the free stuff we've given out, and buy one! This team is easy and fun to write about. That helps. Beyond that, I figure interest in the Colts will never be higher, so now's the time to shine. Fortunately, my awesome wife believes in what we are doing and why, so that gives me a lot of freedom. Thank you all. The encouragement the last few years has given me the courage to try some cool stuff. I think everyone will like the results when they see the light of day. You all are the best. - DZ Wed, 16 Dec 2009 08:33:49 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4639 local airing on WXIN-TV - erock Wed, 16 Dec 2009 07:48:47 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4638 Just wanna do a quick post to agree 100% with westside bob. - jpjandrade Wed, 16 Dec 2009 07:33:10 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4637 #9 is outrageously funny--the final line--but #1 is just nuts. They could win 99-0, sever Manning's head and march around the field with it on the end of a pike while a giant Dungy burns in effigy at midfield, and that fan base will not be ignited. Throw in free wings and beer, and maybe you're onto something.... - Bob M Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:46:50 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4636 I am once again reduced to watching on my laptop, lapping up the infrequent 2-minute live clips interspersed with 10-minute chunks of jabbering heads. Can't think of a compelling argument for barging in on my neighbors--either for explaining to the missus why she has to put the kids to bed solo or why the neighbors have to watch a Colts game with me. (Not like I am very good company when watching a game.) Maybe I can subtly check to see if they'll be watching anyway.... - Bob M Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:34:10 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4635 I agree with the sentiments expressed above. This site is, bar none, the best source for Colts' analysis (and homerism) on the web. I wouldn't recommend charging for access (for obvious reasons) but maybe offer page-sponsorships like FO and PFR? - BP Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:32:48 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4634 I just read an article that said it would be smart for the Colts to rest their starters. I heard Dilfer on ESPN say the same thing yesterday. Before Caldwell announced he would be playing the starters this Thursday just about every analyst talked about the Colts losing momentum and they had all these comparisons to 2005. It's like these sports writers disagree with teams just to create drama. Even if it contradicts what they were saying last week. I still watch ESPN so I can hear any news that's going on, but when it comes to analysis they just keep getting worse and worse. Their Tiger Woods coverage just about makes me sick. - 35er Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:14:55 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4633 I must concur with everyone else. You guys have kicked it up a notch the last couple weeks, and the site is better than ever! I have been spreading the word for those not "in the know" since the past off-season! Being somewhat fair and subjective is great too, but you do have the word Homerism in the banner for your site, so stop trying so hard at the prognostication! I told you guys to have a little more heart before we went down to play Houston without #93, and look how that turned out? Granted it wasn't easy but they played brilliantly when we had too. 19. Watch for greatness, as usual, from #18. He will do whatever it takes. He wants perfection, and he can almost taste it at this point. He knows this game is the key to getting there, that they can maybe manufacture wins the following 2 weeks without 4 quarters from the starters, but that they have to go all out on Thursday night with whatever players are available. 20. Watch for # 93 to be on the field. Maybe Mathis' misses the game, and maybe Freeney only plays situationally, but I don't see him missing this game. BELIEVE IN BLUE! - Nickaveli Wed, 16 Dec 2009 05:52:29 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4630 A very nice site, I'm new...first post! - Colts1919a Wed, 16 Dec 2009 05:22:25 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4629 It's pretty rare to find any information source that is consistently well-informed, funny and has actual opinions and balls to get behind them. This is also on my short list of sites I would pay for (again, not recommending you do so) - psvirsky Wed, 16 Dec 2009 04:21:06 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4627 As you guys know I've always thought the world of this site and think the both of you do an amazing job. However, the last several weeks you have taken it to another level. Really outstanding work, thank you. It's become probably the only website I would totally pay to subscribe for if I had too (I'm not suggesting you should start requiring subscriptions, though you could make it optional I suppose and let those of us that love it help to reward you and incentivize you to do even more. Until that day, you have my Deepest gratitude. THANKS! - Westside Rob Wed, 16 Dec 2009 03:55:35 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4626 He says that "Every team with a QB over 30 needs to have a QB for the future." So we better get on that. - Drew Funk Wed, 16 Dec 2009 03:50:34 +0100 http://www.18to88.com/2009-archives/december/eyes-in-the-backfield-jaguars-road.html#comment-4625 Why wasn't this post titled "18 Things to Watch for During Thursday's Colts/Sparkle Kitties Game"? - Doug England Wed, 16 Dec 2009 03:39:08 +0100
