The 1958 NFL Championship game between the New York Football Giants and the Baltimore Colts is often called the greatest football game ever played. It was the first championship game to go into overtime, and one of the key moments that cemented the greatness of pro football in American society.

Tonight, ESPN will broadcast a re-mastered, colorized production of the game. The game is on at 9pm Eastern. Watch it if you can. And Go Colts!

As we saw yesterday with the announcement that the Super Bowl is coming to Indianapolis in 2012, Lucas Oil Field is already paying dividends for the city.  Don't get me wrong, I have lots of fond memories of the RCA Dome--even though I never actually saw the place in person--but the place wasn't exactly Super Bowl worthy.  I mean, it wasn't even impressive enough to get anyone to bite on resurrecting the Refrigerator Bowl.  It was a nice place, but it's time had come and gone.

Now as we move to a new stadium, it's a brand new start for Colts and the city as a whole.  No more weird acoustics that make opponents think we're piping in noise.  No more sellout crowds that are still under 60,000 people.  No more bubble jokes.  And last but not least, no more worries about the field getting wet because of those epic roof leaks:

Ok everyone so the meet and greet is tomorrow 12/20 and it will be held at Chumleys Beer Hall at 838 Broad Ripple Ave Indianapolis, IN 46220. It is easy to find and if you are unsure of where it is just map quest it and you should find it without a problem.
BBS and I will be there at 7:45 to watch the Thursday night game. We look forward to seeing you guys there and drinking some beer!

Go Colts!

Tonight, on The SB Nation Sports Report, the official podcast of the re-designed SB Nation:

Yes bloggers, our very own TheSportsGuru will be attending the NBA Finals tonight, working his shaman magic in a desperate hope that his beloved Cavs will friggin' show up and make a series out of this match-up with the San Antonio Spurs. We will call him live at the game and either get an excited update on how the Cavs are dominating the Spurs, or a drunken ramble about the poor state of the NBA's officiating. Joining BigBlueShoe in the studio, and filling in for TheSportsGuru, is Fooch, the head blogger at SB Nation's Niner's Nation.

Other than the obvious NBA Finals jibber-jabber, David Halprin from Blogging The Boys will drop in to talk NFL, the Cowboys, and why Jerry Jones' face seems to to expand with age. We'll also be talking about the MLB, Gary Sheffeld's love of Latinos, and Harold Reynolds' hiring at MLB.com. Plus, a girl can't win the Indy 500, but a girl did win the friggin' Belmont Stakes!
