John Oehser, in his own way, sticks his knee in Pat Kirwan's crotch

PrintFrom John Oehser:
Porter made a good read, and without question, Manning and the Colts would love to have the play back. They also without question will review the offense for predictability and tendencies, as they do every year. But to think that teams have caught up with the offense and are routinely anticipating what they're doing is a bit extreme.
Please John, allow me to be the juvenile ass fart here. I've got a pretty good idea this comment was in response to Pat Kirwan's rather stupid assertion that the Saints now have the "blueprint" to beat the Colts. So, I'll just put the icing on the cake by saying Pat's comments seem to reinforce the notion that there is a very legitimate reason why he is not longer working in the NFL.
It's because he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Also from John:
This is not to say the Colts shouldn't have won Sunday. They should have. They feel that way. Their fans feel that way, too. It's just that to paint it as a choke or as underachieving may not be as accurate as some believe.
Again, juvenile ass fart translation for the schmuck contingent out there, if you think the Colts "choked" away the 2009 season, you're a f*cking moron. Have a nice day.
Be sure to read the rest of John's article. File this under "good journalism."

An even more direct response
can be found in Oehser’s article from this morning.
How can you not love a team that does this?
oh definitely
I think three of us sitting there watching the game looked at each other and said slant to Wayne all at the same time. Usually even if you know its coming you can’t stop it. They did this time.
Indianapolis Colts, taking focus away from my DBacks every Sunday.
Oehser always finds a nice way
to say that a certain article is ridiculous. It’s kinda entertaining to look at all the ways he does it. Take for example his recent Tebow post.

Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: Even though the Colts lost, it was a good season. Random facts will resume next week when I recover.
I wonder how long
Before our newest high profile troll post an intelligent reply to this article…..
Yeah, I might be collecting Social Security before that happens, but I’m sure a flame is imminent,.
I also wish I had time and motivation to blog at Speed Blue Nation
I agree that it is dumb to say that the Colts choked
But why did Oehser say that they should have won Sunday? The Colts were simply outplayed and outstrategized in the final three quarters, and the Saints played a heck of a game.

Any team could win this game
If it wasn’t for this pick, we were probably going into OT and the coin would probably decide who’s the winner. But we don’t have time machines yet to change our mistakes
Quitters never win, but cheaters sometimes do
I'm working on that time machine problem.
I’ll get back to you later.

The Colts would have scored with around 2:00 left
The Saints had all three of their timeouts. Do you think your D could have stopped them from getting into FG range?

All it takes is a strip sack
or an opportunistic pick…
Anyone who has a problem with Joseph should stop watching Colts football. It's unfair to expect a back to replace Edge, and Addai has been excellent in all areas when he is healthy.

Honestly, no.
But earlier in the game, there were several opportunities to take control, like Garcon’s drop that could have put us ahead 17-0, the 2 minute drill, and the onside kick.

Bah
I really wish we could have that onside kick back. Damn you Baskett! Your memory will now replace Nick Harper running straight into Ben Roethlisberger as one that’ll randomly pop into my brain when my mind drifts to football and then I suddenly find myself swearing aloud at someone’s wedding.

It hit him in his face.
It’s like the football itself did a facepalm for him.

My comment that "the Colts should have won . . ."
Certainly deserves explanation. What I meant was that while the Colts were indeed outexecuted at times, it was just as true that had they recovered the onside kick and had Garcon caught the pass he dropped that they would have been further ahead early in the second half — conservatively 16-6 or 20-6, in that area. Even the way it played out, they had a chance to win. Also, though there’s no way to prove it, it will be hard to convince me that had these teams played seven times, the Colts wouldn’t win four or five times. The Saints clearly deserved to win the game. That’s what football is, making the key plays at the right times, and therefore they are worthy champions, but I think most of the Colts people feel they should have won.

I think that I shall rec John's comment for truth.

Thank you for explaining that. It is much appreciated!

Don't you feel special now?
You should.

hey since you are here
how the hell do you pronounce your last name?
Indianapolis Colts, taking focus away from my DBacks every Sunday.
But hey...
The Saints could’ve thrown it on 3rd/4th and goal for a TD, Manning could’ve been picked off 3x instead of once; Colston could’ve caught that pass that doinked off his mask and kept that drive alive; Addai could’ve been tackled on his TD run forcing the Colts to settle for 3.
You can “coulda, woulda, shoulda” the whole game away for both sides.

Did the Colts or their fans care about who "should have won"...
In 2006, when the Colts were a 3 seed behind a strong SD squad and were neck and neck with NE by most statistical measures?
Or in 2007, when the team that dominated the league lost the Super Bowl?
Rightly or wrongly, a team is judged by its SB performance. And to argue that the Colts were clearly better than the Saints (despite DVOA, despite the Saints destroying a Pats team that the Colts barely beat, despite their close records, despite the fact that the Saints beat better playoff opposition) – there just isn’t much support for that proposition, other than your gut feeling and losses to the ‘Boys and Bucs. (Plus some “what if”s, which can also be applied to the Saints. Like "what if Greer doesn’t get injured right before the (huge) TD pass? What if Colston doesn’t drop the 1st down play? What if NO makes a more creative playcall on 3rd and goal?" Etc.
Go Pats!
