Aunt On South Side Calls for Pagano's Job on Facebook

52-year-old, Linda Young, a lifelong Colts fan and resident of Greenwood, Indiana retracted her endorsement of Chuck Pagano as the Head Coach of the Indianapolis Colts on Facebook after a 1-3 start to the 2016 season.

Young stated in her post that the Colts were undiscplined, and that things “just aren’t the same as when Peyton was here”. She also wrote that she doesn’t understand why someone would keep a coach who can’t beat the Jaguars, but a quick search through her Facebook posts from January tell a different story.

From December 30, 2015 to January 5, 2016, the day the Colts signed Pagano to an extension, Young shared or wrote a post featuring the “Keep Pagano, Fire Grigson” meme a total of 37 times. Aside from these posts, Young mainly posted pictures of either a pin and needle claiming this is how New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady prepares for games, or two-paragraph long updates on her dog’s most recent trip to the vet.

On January 4, 2016, Young made her profile picture to a photo of Chuck Pagano on the sideline with the hashtag “ChuckStrong” featured on the bottom of the picture. This remained her profile picture until January 17, the Denver Broncos first playoff game, when she changed it to a half-and-half photo of her in a split Broncos-Colts Peyton Manning jersey on one side and Peyton Manning himself on the other because “Broncos are just Colts all grown up!”

Young was unable to be reached for comment on the story, but following her current Facebook posts shows that she has a strong belief that Manning should, and will, return to Indianapolis as the General Manager, Head Coach, and starting quarterback of the Colts.
