what is this, some cruel joke? (part 2)

Loyal readers might remember this.

In 2007, the Chiefs went 4-12 and the Chiefs game that was televised in Chicago for me was against the Colts. It was the beginning of the Brodie Croyle era, his first start in the NFL.

(By the way, the Brodie Croyle era was not a good one. Prior to Brodie's first start, the Chiefs were 4-5. The lost the next seven. In fact, Croyle has appeared in 16 games, starting 9 of them, and the only one the Chiefs didn't lose, is when he came in for some victory kneel downs. In other words, in the 15 games where Croyle has thrown a pass, the Chiefs are 0-15. In games when Croyle was on the team but didn't throw a pass, the Chiefs are 22-30.)

The game was actually close, a 13-10 win for the Colts that featured Bowe catching a touchdown with his knees.

So of course, this year, I had to go to Burnsy's to watch the MNF opener since I don't have ESPN. And the wins over the Browns and 49ers weren't on in Chicago. But this, playing at the Colts again, this is the game I get.
