(should the colts be investigated)

[BEANTOWNJIM]

BOYS I AM DEAD SERIOUS FOR A LEAGUE THAT WORRIES ABOUT ITS REPUTATION AND GAMBLING IN LAS VEGAS SHOULDNT THEY TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT JIM CALDWELL AND THE COLTS DID YESTERDAY.THEY ALLOWED THE JETS A CHANCE TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS NOW WHEN WE ALL KNOW THEY DIDNT DESERVE THAT CHANCE THE COLTS HAD THIS GAME WON.
HOW DO WE KNOW JIM CALDWELL DIDNT BET MILLIONS ON THE JETS AND THROW THE GAME HE COULD HAVE HAD FRIENDS AND FAMILY BET IT FOR HIM UNDERCOVER.SOMETHING IS VERY FISHY HERE AND I NEVER TRUST NIGERIANS THEY WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR A FEW EXTRA BUCKS.THIS GAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN OFF THE BOARD IN VEGAS SOMEBODY MADE A PHONE CALL AT HALFTIME AND TOLD JIM CALDWELL WHAT THE F-CK ARE YOU DOING IF YOU WIN THIS GAME WE GET BURRIED SO HE PULLED HIS STARTERS WHAT A F-CKING JOKE.

PETE ROSE GETS BANNED FROM BASEBALL FOR GAMBLING JIM CALDWELL FIXES A GAME AND EVERYBODY TURNS THERE HEAD THIS WAS AN OBVIOUS FIX.

THE COLTS WERE UP BY 6 POINTS MANNING WASNT BEING TOUCHED THEY COULD HAVE COVERED EASILY AND BONE HEAD JIM CALDWELL PULLS HIS STARTERS THIS GAME HAS ALL WRITINGS OF A FIXED GAME AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED

DID JIM CALDWELL BET MILLIONS ON THE JETS YESTERDAY AND PULL HIS STARTERS TO MAKE SURE HIS TICKET CASHED AND WHAT FRIENDS DID HE TELL ABOUT WHAT HE WAS GOING TO DO SURELY SOMEBODY HAD INSIDE INFORMATION AND CASHED IN.
ARE THERE ANY HONEST NIGERIANS LEFT IN THIS WORLD MAYBE THATS WHY THEY ARE ALL IN JAIL THEY ARE THE MOST CORRUPT PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET

[BEANTOWNJIM]

HOW COME TEAMS NEVER PULLED THERE STARTERS IN THE OLD DAYS I HAVE BEEN WATCHING FOOTBALL FOR OVER 35 YEARS AND I NEVER REMEMBER TEAMS IN THE 70'S PULLING THERE STARTERS IF YOU WERE HEALTHY YOU PLAYED.THIS IS A RECENT THING AND IT MAKES THE LEAGUE LOOK SUSPICIOUS WHEN IT HAPPENS

[Shortstop]

BEANTOWNJIM, you the man!

[ZetaPsi808]

jimmy lost on the colts apparently

[BEANTOWNJIM]

NO I DIDNT BET THE GAME BUT JEEZ IF I DID I WOULD HAVE BEEN GOING TO A COLTS PRACTICE THIS WEEK WITH A GUN LOOKING FOR JIM CALDWELL THIS WAS AN EASY WINNER AND COVER IF HE DIDNT PULL THE STARTERS

IF THE NFL KNEW THE COLTS WERE F-CKING AROUND WITH THE SREAD WHY HAVE THIS GAME ON NATIONAL T.V. SO EVERYBODY CAN SEE HOW CORRUPT THE NFL IS

WHO KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER COACHS PULL THERE STARTERS AFTER WEEK 10 AND CASH IN WE DONT KNOW.

PETE ROSE WAS ACCUSSED OF PULLING HIS ACE PITCHER AFTER 7 INNINGS TO WIN HIS BET WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT PETE ROSE DID AND WHAT JIM CALDWELL DID YESTERDAY A FIX IS A FIX AND WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY ON NATIONAL T.V. WAS A FIXED GAME NO DOUBT ABOUT IT THE FIX WAS IN FOR THE N.Y. JETS

[Ace_of_Spades]

Turn the capslock off.

[Lost Angel]

with 68.5% on the Colts and the line moving from Colts-7 to Colts-3 its not as though it wasn't "suggested" what was gonna transpire.

[Lost Angel]

He can't turn the Capslock off, he may not be "heard" plus he has a Keyboard manufactured in Colima Mexico so it has no CapsLock key anyway.

[BEANTOWNJIM]

THEN WHY DID MANNING START THE 3 RD QUARTER AND LEAD HIS TEAM DOWNFIELD TO GIVE THEM A 6 POINT LEAD LATE IN THE 3RD QUARTER THEN MYSTERIOUSLY THEY PULL HIM OUT NOBODY SAW THAT COMING.THE ANNOUNCERS WERE SHOCKED AND SO WERENT THE PLAYERS

THIS GAME LOOKED VERY SUSPICIOUS AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY THE LEAGUE.AFTER WATCHING THIS FIX WHO KNOWS HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR THIS HAPPENS THIS MAKES THE LEAGUE LOOK TARNISHED AND POINT SHAVING.

I REMEMBER YEARS AGO ALEX KARAS AND 2 OTHER GUYS WERE ACCUSED OF SHAVING POINTS WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COACH DOING THIS AND A PLAYER.JIM CALDWELL KNEW THE COLTS WOULD LOSE AS SOON AS HE PUT IN THIS BUM PAINTER AND PULLED ALL HIS STARTERS.IT WAS AN OBVIOUS FIXED GAME

NFL IS ALL FIXED THEY CALL IT A PREVENT DEFENSE I CALL IT POINT SHAVING IT HAPPENS EVERY WEEK THE LATE TOUCHDOWN COVER

[BEANTOWNJIM]

IT JUST LOOKS SHADY HOW IT WENT DOWN.IF CALDWELL KNEW MANNING AND THE STARTERS WERE COMING OUT THE LEAGUE SHOULD HAVE MADE HIM ANNOUNCE IT TO THE PUBLIC AT HALFTIME OTHERWISE THIS HAS ALL THE LOOKS OF A FIX.THEY BROUGHT MANNING IN TO SCORE AND TAKE THE LEAD TO MAKE IT LOOK GOOD THEN THEY FIXED THE GAME IT WAS JUST TO OBVIOUS

YOU DONT RUIN A PERFECT SEASON WITH A 6 POINT LEAD IN THE 3RD QUARTER AND PEYTON MANNING NOT EVEN BEING RUSHED THE JETS WERE A DEAD TEAM AND THE COLTS COULD HAVE NAMED THERE NUMBER BUT BONE HEAD JIM CALDWELL DECIDED TO FIX THE GAME INSTEAD.

IF THIS HAPPENED IN A MAJOR CITY LIKE NEW YORK OR LOS ANGELES THE PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN YELLING AND SCREAMING FIX BUT SINCE INDIANAPOLIS IS A HICK TOWN THE GAMBLERS DIDNT GET OUTRAGED.

NEW YORK,BOSTON,LA,CHICAGO IF THIS HAPPENED IN ONE OF THESE MAJOR GAMBLING MARKETS AND YOU NEEDED THIS GAME FOR A BAILOUT THE LINES AT THE NFL OFFICE WOULD BE RINGING OFF THE HOOK YELLING FIX.THIS WOULDNT HAVE HAPPENED IN A MAJOR CITY GAMBLING MARKET

[BEANTOWNJIM]

CHICAGO IS A MAJOR CITY FOR GAMBLING WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF MIKE DITKA PULLED VINCE MCMAHON YEARS AGO WHEN THE BEARS WERE GOING FOR THE PERFECT SEASON LIKE JIM CALDWELL DID YESTERDAY.THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A RIOT IN DOWNTOWN CHICAGO AND DITKA WOULD HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATED BY THE LEAGUE AND PROBABLY FIRED.

NOBODY DOES WHAT JIM CALDWELL DID YESTERDAY NOBODY THIS WAS VERY SUSPICIOUS BOYS.

JUST REVERSE THE ROLES PRETEND THE JETS WERE UNDEFEATED AND MIKE RYAN DECIDED TO PULL HIS STARTERS I DONT THINK HE WOULD HAVE MADE IT OFF THE FIELD ALIVE.LARGE GAMBLING CITIES YOU DONT PULL THIS SHIT TO MANY PEOPLE ARE BETTING ON THERE HOME TEAMS

[BEANTOWNJIM]

I SAID VINCE MCMAHON I MEANT JIM MCMAHON YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY IN INDY NEVER WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN A MAJOR GAMBLING CITY THE COACH WOULDNT HAVE HAD THE BALLS TO PULL THAT BULLSHIT WITH SO MUCH MONEY BEING BETON THE GAME IN A MAJOR CITY MARKET

[hoopster42]

clueless

[Mr KLC]

As a Texans fan, I totally agree.

[hoopster42]

you said "the colts could have named their number" yet they only had 15 pts when manning got pulled which was over 2.5 quarters into the gm, basically 40 mins played and only 20 mins left when manning leaves and only 15 pts, and manning only had 192 yds passing at that pt

yeah, the colts were really moving the ball at will

[BEANTOWNJIM]

ONLY 192 YARDS PASSING IS THAT ALL HE WOULD HAVE HAD ANOTHER 100 EASILY LOOK AT THE TOTAL YARDS WHEN PEYTON LEFT THEY WERE RUNNING THE BALL WITH EASE AGAINST THE JETS AVERAGING OVER 6 YARDS A CARRY IT WAS A MISMATCH.

WOULDNT IT BE IRONIC IF THE JETS MAKE THE PLAYOFFS AND BEAT THE COLTS IN THE 2ND ROUND

[Robyn]

I think I love BEANTOWNJIM. You are cracking me up.

[BrownTown]

clueless

[MJFtheGenius]

Peyton Manning left the game when they were up 3....not sure the Colts had this game won

If you are mad bc u had Colts you are an idiot for even taking them...

You had to know getting the 13-0 colts at home only -3 verse a medioker Jets team had to be a trap

[durito]

Broncos went to Miami in 1999 at 13-1 with home field clinched and looked horrid and lost badly. That got Miami into the playoffs where they came to denver a few weeks later and got destroyed.

Deciding how hard to play after locking up home field is up to the coach, I don't recall there being an NFL rule stating they have to try to win every game.

[paco]

Yea , fvck Caldwell. I wanted to witness history be made with a perfect 19-0. Don't know if I'll wet see it especially with rumors they wanna extend it to 18 regular season games by taking away a few preseason games.

[pico]

dolphin fans are happy now

[Living The Dream]

I agree, its bullshit... I did lose on the game and it was a 5pt game when Manning was yanked and they were covering the 4.5, then the inept backup was put in and suddenly the offense fumbles the ball and its returned for a TD. Yes its suspicious as hell. The Colts were just going through the motions and still have complete control over this game. The Jets had a kickoff return the start the 2nd half and the Colts marched right down field to take the lead back.

Its crap and I just signed on to bitch about it, BUT BEAN BEAT ME TO IT!! GREAT THREAD!!

[jjgold]

BOYS I AM DEAD SERIOUS FOR A LEAGUE THAT WORRIES ABOUT ITS REPUTATION AND GAMBLING IN LAS VEGAS SHOULDNT THEY TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT JIM CALDWELL AND THE COLTS DID YESTERDAY.THEY ALLOWED THE JETS A CHANCE TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS NOW WHEN WE ALL KNOW THEY DIDNT DESERVE THAT CHANCE THE COLTS HAD THIS GAME WON.

PETE ROSE GETS BANNED FROM BASEBALL FOR GAMBLING JIM CALDWELL FIXES A GAME AND EVERYBODY TURNS THERE HEAD THIS WAS AN OBVIOUS FIX.

ARE THERE ANY HONEST NIGERIANS LEFT IN THIS WORLD MAYBE THATS WHY THEY ARE ALL IN JAIL THEY ARE THE MOST CORRUPT PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET

[Flying Dutchman]

As Angel sez: the market saw this coming, IND dropped from -5.5 to -3 just before game time. Almost everyone in the know pulled in their horns. Model guys got their butts kicked, however.

[poker_dummy101]

if i were the colts, id want the jets in the playoffs instead of my steelers

[BEANTOWNJIM]

THATS A GREAT POINT DUMMY NOBODY WANTS TO FACE PITTSBURGH WHEN THEY KNOW THEY CAN BEAT THE JETS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE STEELERS WHATEVER IT WAS IT IS FISHY IT SMELLS OF A FIX.

I HEARD THE PATRIOTS WANT TO LOSE NEXT WEEK ALSO SO THEY DONT HAVE TO GO TO SAN DIEGO IN THE 2ND ROUND THEY WOULD RATHER GOT TO INDIANAPOLIS FOR THE REVENGE GAME FOR 4TH AND 2

BOYS THE WHOLE LEAGUE IS SUSPICIOUS AFTER WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY CERTAIN TEAMS DONT WANT TO FACE OTHERS SO THEY LOSE ON PURPOSE.

[daggerkobe]

I'll bet many of you that backed the Colts are the same ones that backed the Jags and were upset Peyton wasnt pulled in that game.

There's a reason why the Colts went from -7 to -3.

[Dunder]

As Angel sez: the market saw this coming, IND dropped from -5.5 to -3 just before game time. Almost everyone in the know pulled in their horns. Model guys got their butts kicked, however.

Most model guys won´t touch late season games when motivation is questionable for one of the sides.

[BEANTOWNJIM]

I DONT KNOW FOR SURE BUT WERE THE COLTS SMART ENOUGH TO SAY LISTEN BOYS IF WE LOSE TO THE JETS WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET PITTSBURGH OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS.IF THIS WAS A THOUGHT THEY HAD THEN WE HAVE A WELL THOUGHT OUT PLOT

IT MAKES SENSE WOULD YOU RATHER PLAY A SHIT JETS TEAM OR THE DEFENDING SUPERBOWL CHAMPS WHO ARE GETTING HEALTHY BOYS THIS IS A NO BRAINER YOU STAY AWAY FROM PITTSBURGH.

WOW THIS IS REALLY STARTING TO LOOK LIKE A FIXED GAME NOW LOSE SO THE JETS GET IN AND THE STEELERS ARE OUT

[R3Sports]

...No.

[G's pks]

ask mom how to turn off the caps lock...or just click it off yourself..

[hhsilver]

A couple things, Mr Jim.

1. The word is "their" not "there"
2. The "Nigerian" thing lowers your credibility and makes you seem a stupid racist. Likewise for the "Dago" comments you once made in a thread. I know you don't care , but things like this keep me from looking at most of your threads and taking you seriously when I do look.
3. About the caps : please stop

Other than that, I agree it was a bad thing they did - I don't feel as strongly as you about the gambling theory. But I do agree about keeping the Steelers out and letting the Jets in. Pgh looks like they may be getting back into form - Palamalu should be back soon - they know what they did as a 6 seed a few years ago. PGH dug their ( notice "their") own grave with some bad losses, but what happened yesterday diminishes the integrity of the wild card race and should be abhorred by fans who want honest competition.
I agree with you about hoping the Jets knock Indy out of the playoffs.

[will2survive]

Are you serious?---The Colts are looking at the long picture(The Super bowl).What if Manning trips or breaks an ankle?---- c'mon man use some sense
