I know I come across as extreme, and yes, I am quite extreme in a lot of ways. But, it is a manifest of passion. I do have great passion for this team. I love this franchise, I give it equally as much positive energy when good things happen as I do raging fury when shit goes bad. I am confident that at games where I am giving it hell, few can run aside me- and if they do, I will probably just shoulder check them into the 2nd row and chug a beer over them for the fucking fun of it!

Sadly for me, the quantity lately has been so damn heavy on the negative side. I do not understand at all the plan, nothing seems to be well choreographed, nothing seem strategic, nothing seems to make any sense. I really don't feel like it has, since dumb ass Ballard has been behind the wheel. Decisions seem either completely telegraphed with no real structure to support the decision (AR), or they seem completely fucking overthought and lacking any type of vision (bringing Rivers in for a few games last year because "he knows the system"...). When you go below him, at least for me, I just see more of his confused and unscheduled vision. Who the fuck drafts a LB in the 2nd round who was championed as a leadership ready plug and play guy, and then the DC basically says he sucks and isn't worthy of being on the field---- AND THEN COUPLE THAT WITH THE GUYS THAT ARE PLAYING----- SUCK? Who the FUCK does that other than this incredibly ill fitted group of idiots? Yeah, my silly hypothetical conversation is wayyyyyy over the top, but damn we look like an SNL skit in the real world of the NFL!

I've been in some very significant organizations, and some pretty sizable roles with big responsibilities. I have seen the good and been able to recognize when leadership is so good that you KNOW things are going to work out because they are just that good. Conversely I have seen the bad. I have seen the dysfunction reach levels where basically each day you show up, go in your office, lock the door, pretend you are busy for as long as you can stomach being their that day, collect a pay check, go home and just sort of laugh at how incredibly fucked up things are. To me, that's this version of the Colts. A terribly dysfunctional union of people that aren't very good at leading and in turn, all the people and things they are responsible for, reflect that huge leadership deficit at the top. My over the top idiocy is essentially just a very loud vote of no confidence. People need to be fired for being this shitty over an evidentiary period that proves this isn't a fluke, this is who the fuck they are!
This kind of post is the mature type. While I think things are better than you do, I respect your opinion when articulated like this. When you post like a drunk teenager, I tend to roll my eyes. This time, I was not as gracious. Feel free to disagree, but don’t disappear when we get good.
