Spanish Heritage Month

I just wanted to show my respect to this particular month. I myself am Hispanic (Peruvian) and just wanted to see if there are other Hispanic Colt fans out there. I think what the NFL is doing is real classy, since more and more Hispanics are tuning in and becoming a part of the NFL everyday.

Quick Note: Anthony Gonzalez actually derives from Cuban descent. Check out the article about it here

Of course man

Im from Mexico and im glad to see the NFL looking at their hispanic crowd more and more.

Personally, Ive been a Colts fan since I like football thanks to my dad who has been a Colts fan since 95 or so. My whole family (meaning dad, mom, brother and both dogs) are Colts fans. Everyone with their own jersey (even both dogs) and a room full of hangings and collectibles just to see the games.

Even though your calling

yourself a “beaner”, it might be offensive to others so I would watch it. Not really appropriate.

The way our defense is set up, it puts me in situations where I'm one-on-one in making tackles on running backs. When I go into it, I think I am going to win. It really doesn't matter the size, height, weight, whatever. I'm not afraid of putting my body in there." - Bob Sanders

Another mexican here

And a Colts fan for most of my life, good to see the NFL is doing more and more to promote this game to hispanics, American Football is my favorite sport by far.

Im joking dont worry, its funny how the NFL does all these breast cancer and spanish heritage month things, it can only be a good thing.

Yeah

And then they let Rush Limbaugh bid for a team. The irony strikes me as interesting.
