I can relate, dude, trust me I can relate. Football smack is a great stress reliever. Hope your week gets better man because all the smack talk aside I think your guys run a class organization just like the Steelers and a few others.

Colts Wide Receiver Anthony Gonzalez Glad to be Practicing at 2010 Training Camp
ANDERSON, Ind. – Anthony Gonzalez doesn't yet know his role this season.
And while it would be inaccurate to say the former first-round selection doesn't care about that role, it would be very accurate to say there's something more important to the veteran wide receiver.
A chance to play.
For that matter, even the chance to practice in the Central Indiana heat during 2010 Training Camp has been welcome for Gonzalez.
“I've been telling everybody, 'I just want to practice,'' Gonzalez said this week during Colts training camp, which continued Thursday with a pair of practices at Anderson University.
“'Give me a practice: we'll start with that and then see how it goes.' ” Colts quarterback Peyton Manning said it's not only good to see Gonzalez working, it's important to the effectiveness of the offense.
I think the Colts have the deepest and most dangerous receiving corp in the NFL! Let's hope pass protection is there with that new O-Line, though.....
The O-Line battle is certainly one of the most interesting this preseason. Sorry I don't have any links right now, but I was reading some stuff yesterday in which Manning said that he really wants to see the running game improve so he doesn't have to pass 50 times a game. And Polian finally seems to be clarifying his statements regarding the O-Line's Super Bowl performance -- he was particularly miffed at our inability to convert key 3-and-short situations (Hello, Bill?? That's been an issue for the past three seasons!)
As for Gonzo, glad to have him back, but I have to figure he's the #4 right now. Why upset what seemed to work last season? I really get worked up when I hear people say that Gonzo will take reps from Collie. Why on Earth would you want to give Collie fewer reps? Dude has hands. But, hey, this is a good problem to have.
I'm also interested in the backup QB battle. Team brass are still talking nice about Painter, but I'm hoping Painter gets serious competition.

I think Gonzo will start on the right side wide. Pierre may be fast...but he is too inconsistent in catching. It's either home run or nothing with him. That key drop in the Super Bowl still wakes me up at night!
Gonzo has the better hands and does that corner end zone fade route Peyton likes.
