You would want them to do battle with a bunch of Dolphins?

If you knew the history behind the name and were educated, you would not think it was dumb. Obviously you have never been to the state of Maryland
Nickname:
Baltimore’s first pro football team was a member of the 1947 AAFC. A fan contest produced the Colts name reflecting the great tradition and proud history of horse breeding and racing in the Baltimore region. The original Colts disbanded after the 1950 season but the name was retained when a new Baltimore franchise began play in 1953.

A team that's young and fast should be named the COLTS. Nothing wrong with that.
Patriots? That's a dumb name, considering the American Revolution ended a long, long time ago!

I agree - considering 'colt' means young and inexperienced. Dumb name for a football team.

They are just as gay as The Bears, they are both Animal names, and both compenting against each other, So just rute for ur team and leave the other team alone, cuz they might win!!
