Colts confessions: Were you awake or asleep at the end?

[Pat Coyle]

We rarely talk sports here on SI, but the Colts game last night was so thrilling we just had to offer a place for folks to chat about it.

There are so many great things to discuss, and we'd love to hear everyone's stories, but to get things started, let's simply ask this:

Did you go to bed before the end? Let us know if you lost hope, or if you remained confident that the Colts would win...and why :-)

Wide awake, sitting at the edge of my bar stool, and never giving up.

[Mark Bucherl]

I was at the game in section 637, row 20...until the start of the 4th quarter when I had to haul my tired son home -- thought he would outlast me! Watched the grand finale on the tube and it was awesome!

[MT Ray]

I was at the game at the very end....what a finish! The people next to me went home with 4 minutes left...what a mistake!!

[Melissa Gallant]

I was awake for the whole game, and was pleased with how the Colts handled the clock on our last possession.

[Sean Murray]

Left the bar and did not see the comeback but "watched it" online. Spectacular...now I know better.

Went to bed at half-time; found out about the ending when the baby woke up for a bottle around 4. I was feeding her while watching SportsCenter and was really ready to hit myself when I realized what I'd missed. Great comeback!

[Shirley Hill]

Unfortunately, asleep. Next time I will DVR!! I should know better than to give up on Peyton and the Colts and with 8 minutes left I was watching in bed and fell asleep for the end. What a shock to wake up and find out they won--some help from Old Bill Belicheck but I think they would have pulled it off as long as they had gotten the ball back!

Colts my second favorite team. Cowboys #1. But it was great watching the pats lose!

Awake... in a Walmart electronics department screaming my head off…standing along side the long bearded cousin of the Unabomber..
Meaning: the stranger standing next to me, in the group of guys watching the game, looked just like the Unabomber with a long beard. Than there was the 18 yr old kid who got very upset and threw his Power Aid across an aisle of cds when the Colts won. I hope he paid for that drink .

What I'm curious about is this: Are we excited because the Colts won..or because The evil Pats lost? I love it when the Colts win, and I love it when Satan’s favorite team (aka The Pats) lose. I know for me it was a very euphoric sports watching experience.

Go Colts!!!!

I was awake (barely) as we all know the Colts keep you on the edge of your seat. Either way, whether they punted the ball with a little over 1 minute left or the Patriots mishandled the ball ( which is what happened), I had faith that the Colts would pull it out.

Manny and the Colts are just fantastic. They kept their composure.
