They remind you how you lost to a much better team and QB and how your one win of note against that far superior was the most crooked game in NFL history. The Colts look up at the Patriots. That's what they rub into your wounds.

Let's hope the Colts don't pipe in crowd noise when the Pats have the ball.

They engage in good-natured banter. They don't suffer from a low self-esteem and dump cold water over all things Indianapolis. It is true that the Pats have gotten the better of the Colts over the past decade, and I have a healthy respect for the Patriots.

I used to hit the Globe forums all the time and trust me, it was a rivalry. Even when the Colts and Pats weren't playing each other the Colts name ALWAYS came up.

You don't even your facts straight. The Colts were accused of piping in crowd noise vs. the Steelers in the 2005 regular season. In the AFCCG vs. the Pats, they were accused of turning up the heat in the RCA Dome (after a week in which several Pats players had come down with the flu). I'm sure that's why the Pats choked away a 21-3 lead.

Just people who know better and don't take whatever they're given.

Good time for Indy to learn how things are supposed to be.

I've been to NY and Boston and didn't find the service quality to be any different.

The Colts piped in crowd noise in lots of games. That was standard practice. They jacked with the heat in several games, as well.

The Colts had one tainted season that gave them a phony title. That well known tainted season and Manning's stats being built on phony PI calls will forever keep Manning from being recognized as one of the greats

Is your real name Ed Bouchette?

I take it you know this from first-hand experience?

Wow, that's standard practice. Funny. The dome was set at one temperature, 70 if I'm not mistaken and never deviated. I'm sure the HVAC installers purposely put it in to give off false readings. Geez, any proof to back anything up? The one thing we DO know is Boston got CAUGHT cheating and let us not forget the Rodney Harrison fake injury.
