Dec 23, 2019
You think that's bad? From 1953 thru 1966 the Colts were based in Baltimore and were in the NFL's West Division.

After the 1970 merger, the Colts were 1 of 3 NFL teams to join the former AFL teams in comprising the new AFC, and they were placed in the AFC East. When they moved to Indianapolis, they simply remained in the same division. With the addition of the Houston Texans in 2002, the NFL needed to re-align from 6 divisions to 8, each consisting of 4 teams.

The NFL relied upon a mix of geography & preservation of certain rivalries to determine who landed where. While Miami may have seemed like the logical choice to move to the South Division, they had deeper ties to the Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots & New York Jets than the Colts did, as all but the Colts were in the old AFL together, and all had been in their current cities much longer than the Colts.

I was looking through the list of quizzes I haven't done, and this one was always at the top. I'm in the UK where football is soccer, and American football looks like rugby with padding (no offence, truly!). So my only chance of getting more than 0 was to think of references I've seen on TV, and of listening to work colleagues who watch it. All this is my way of saying that 17 isn't bad for me!!

OH! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to insult your favorite team, whoever you are that is reading this. I guess I, another infamous keyboard warrior, just got way too caught up in something that makes absolutely no difference in my personal life whatsoever at all, thus causing me to think insulting other peoples' personal preferences and opinions (of which some are obviously bad and horrible) would make all my pain and suffering caused by the sport and other keyboard warriors to go away and make my life happier. Sorry. Well, Gotta go! I have to go cheer against my least favorite team and talk trash towards their fans. Hmmmm.... I wonder how my team is doing.....

That was actually a fun read. I think Houston's nickname needs a bit of work, though. And as a Bengals fan, I'll have you know that Cincinnati's official pejorative nickname is "Bungles" not "Bagels". If you're going to insult them, the least you can do is be accurate. This stuff almost matters! :-P

I never have liked the geographical stretches of the imagination put in play in assigning NFL teams to specific conferences which don't often make sense. I submit Dallas Cowboys are hardly an "eastern" team, Indianapolis Colts no way is a "southern" location, Kansas City Chiefs don't belong in any "western" conference unless it's western Missouri(!). In the pre-merger years of the 50s there were 2 divisions of 6 teams each: NFL Eastern---Chicago Cardinals, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, Washington Redskins. NFL Western---Baltimore Colts, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers. Kind of a stretch to consider the Baltimore franchise in the "west", LOL.
