Around SBN: Jim Irsay: We Can Make It Work With Peyton Manning

Upcoming: Stampede Blue interviews Tony Mandarich

I'm sure several of you read MasterRWayne's excellent write-up on former Colts and Packers o-lineman Tony Mandarich. Because of that write-up, Tony Mandarich was nice enough to grant some time to Stampede Blue for an interview. The focus of the interview is on his new book (My Dirty Little Secrets - Steroids, Alcohol & God - The Tony Mandarich Story), his two part interview on Showtime's Inside the NFL (part one aired this past Wednesday), and his tenure with the Colts. Just a little factual information: Tony's first year with the Colts was Marvin Harrison's rookie year, and his last year with them was Peyton Manning's rookie year. Tony had some hilarious stories to tell about playing with both those guys when they were rookies.

My interview with Tony will get posted on Tuesday, a day before Part 2 of his interview is aired on Showtime.

thats great BBS!

If its not any trouble, it would be awesome if you can get some interviews from other Colts, both past and current. (barring if you have time of course)

Hey BBS...

I really look forward to this. I was pumped when Mandarich became a Colt and then acted as a leader on the O line!! He has a hell of a lot of perserverience and character. Also, on an earlier post you stated that he was one of your favorite Colts. Me too!! I generally don’t go the traditional route with my favorites but my top list of Colts would have to include Bert Jones, Edge, and of course maybe my favorite of all time Jim Harbaugh. He wasn’t the greatest QB ever, and the Colts were not the best team during his tenure (AFC championship game excluded), but he was a tough son of a gun!! Bloodied every game he looked more like a linebacker. I am not a Stanford fan, but I tell you what…I root for his success as a coach as hard as any Stanford alum.

Thanks for your hard work on this site!!
