Now I take offense to this. Mayflower did the moving, Robert Irsay made the decision and Jim Irsay doesn't seem as bad... yet.
*start sad background music* I had to grow up in a city where there was no professional football. Such a storied history of the Baltimore Colts lost; an owner out to screw the world, and all of us growing up without a team in our home town. Even the great Baltimore Colts (Johnny U) didn't want their history moved. *end sad background music*
But then again, we got rid of a bad owner, and got the Modell family, a new team, a Super Bowl victory, and a new museum

And the Irsay's, well they're in the same place again 20 years later.
Maybe FIRST should just move to the Baltimore/DC area that way they are closer to all those politicians. Plus they won't have to move again 20 years from now.
