[edit] Möbius strip?

They were the Colts in 1950, then they moved to New York, then back to Baltimore to become the Colts. Have I got that right? Or does the writer not know what he's talking about? Trekphiler 14:35, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Actually Born in 1924?

Art Donovan was a guest on The Opening Drive on Sirius NFL Radio on June 5, 2008, which was supposedly his 83rd birthday. Art revealed that he is actually 84 and that he lied when the Colts asked him his age when joining the team, telling them he was a year younger than he really was. Since then virtually all media sources have listed his year of birth as 1925, instead of when he now claims he was actually born, 1924.
