You’ve obviously misunderstood what I was trying to say. I was saying that times like these, the death of Robert Kraft’s wife, are reality checks for us all. There are much more important things in life than business & money. It was great to see Jeff Saturday & Mr. Kraft come together like that, that’ll be the image that stays with me forever when I think back on this lockout. Nothing but respect to those two individuals, they were two of the driving forces that ended this lockout. The fact that Mr. Kraft came to be with everyone after sitting Shivah is truly amazing. I was simply stating my Steelers loyalty & setting rivalries aside, to show that we all have our favorite teams, but we are all fans of the game. And without Jeff Saturday & Mr. Kraft, we might not of been able to look forward to the game that we all love so much.

Sorry you misunderstood what I was trying to say.

Thank you both. This will not be forgotten, I assure you.

Heard that Mr. Kraft offered De Smith to fly on his private plane during Smith’s trips to Boston for negotiations. I don’t know that I could have been a big enough person to put aside any bad feelings for my opposition to that extent even though it was better for the big picture.

Mr. Kraft exemplifies great leadership. He sacrificed his time while his beloved wife was gravely ill in order to do right by the sport. As a leader, you never ask of others what you won’t do yourself and how could anyone sacrifice more than he did?

And yet it’s still about the Colts and their class
because of a ‘touchy feely’ photo op.

WRONG! It’s about KRAFT saving the day.

In the spirit of the moment, we’ll save the class
discussion for another time(ie MHarrison and
the whining GM.

There’s several high caliber players on the Colts that Patriots fans and organization members alike have an immense amount of respect for and Saturday is one of them.

Nice to see that’s a two way street.

Patriots fans heard Bob Kraft say early on that he wanted to get a deal done sooner, rather than later, a deal fair to both sides.

We believed he was the guy who would get it done, if given the chance.

Great job, Mr. Kraft!

“Excuse me, would every lawyer in the room please go out for a free danish in the lobby?”

Good luck to everyone this season!

At least he acknowledged Kraft seems like a good
guy as well.

There’s no need in trying to find a way to bring the “negativity” out of my statement. By saying “Colts class”, I didn’t mean we bring more class to the table than anyone else, or that only a Colt could do something this classy. However, I do like the fact that my team prides itself on class and usually provides a great example of it (i.e. Robert Mathis stating that #18 is first). I think we have a great group of guys, and Jeff Saturday is one of the best. He stayed with the negotiations through thick and thin, like many others.

Thankfully, Patriot fans can pride themselves with having one of the best, if not the best owner in the NFL. I have a lot of respect for Kraft.

Leave your patronage at the door, and show some class for once, instead.

Jeff Saturday and Robert Kraft know and exemplify what sports are all about; honor and class.

RIP, Myra Kraft, a truly great woman.

Kudos to Jeff Saturday for that moment.

Let’s have a great season and best of luck to all your teams.

Go Steelers!

At least he acknowledged Kraft seems like a good
guy as well.

You are both class acts. Thank you for your time, effort, and sacrifice.

Game On!

In all seriousness, Saturday keeps it all in perspective regarding his comments for Mr. Kraft, and Jeff’s wife and family.

Class all the way.
