Ummm, don't check threads with titles that have teams listed? LOL
Ha ha....good advice, generally....but the TITLE of the thread was "Finally, Colts Pay Back!" I pretty much knew the outcome of the game as soon as I saw that. Oh well.
A number of years ago had something like that happen....missed the first Denver Superbowl win on TV, because we were still without power from one of our typhoons. Not a Denver fan in particular, but being a typical American guy, I AM a football fan. Anyhow, my dad back on the mainland was kind enough to mail me a videotape of that game....and I managed to go 2 whole weeks without finding out who'd won that game...no radio, didn't have a computer at the time, and even had my room mate cut out any references to the game in the newspaper. Finally, pick up the tape at the post office, and am driving back home, ready to watch the game....and in front of me there's a car, and on the back window, written in soap or whatever, are the words "Congratulations John Elway!".....if you know football, you then know who won THAT game.
Over here the 1st Sunday afternoon football game (in the US) starts at about 3am....so a lot of early Monday morning wake up calls for me...with the headphones on, as my wife for some odd reason doesn't have any interest in watching football at 3am. Women!
(PS...I see now that you're located in Australia...so "Colts, Denver, John Elway" etc might not mean anything to you. But the thread title gave away the result, which was my point)
