The first line is from Isa. 62:11, the rest from Zech. 9:9. John (12:14f.) makes it clear that Jesus did not quote the passage himself. In Matthew it is not so plain, but probably it is his own comment about the incident. It is not Christ’s intention to fulfill the prophecy, simply that his conduct did fulfill it.

Here, Prax is stating that Robertson's analysis of John 12 and Matthew 21, indicates that the prophetic type of the "ass's colt" (Indianapolis) will not get even as far as the play-offs in 2011.
