The Cubs won Tuesday night in a thrilling comeback that validated the passion and faith of its players and its fans. Down 5-2 heading into the ninth inning with a win-or-go-home game five looming on the immediate horizon, the only reason for continued hope sat in the San Francisco Giants bullpen as the worst group of relievers in […]
This was one bad team beating another bad team. That isn’t all bad. It beats losing to a bad team! For a week at least, the constant din from fans and media waiting for Colts owner Jim Irsay to finally pull the plug on the entire football operation and admit his January surprise to extend the contracts […]
The same ax used to chop wood for the Colts was wielded today to separate the Colts leader in tackles and co-leader in passes defended from the roster. When a team is 1-3 and leadership is questioned, job security is wobbly at best, and so Colts inside linebacker Sio Moore and cornerback Antonio Cromartie are unemployed tonight. […]
The Indianapolis Colts lost today in a battle between teams that – to be kind – aren’t so good. Blake Bortles didn’t turn the ball over, and the myriad of penalties committed by the Jacksonville Jaguars weren’t enough to tip the scales toward the Colts. A late push gave the game and the Colts a […]
Indianapolis Colts radio voice Bob Lamey turned loose an expletive at the end of the team’s win against the San Diego Chargers that is an absolute no-no for broadcasters. Bob dropped the big one, or more accurately an odd mutation of the big one with two suffixes that I’ve never heard before. Yep, Bob threw […]
The Colts the Chargers 26-22 yesterday, which keeps hope for a successful season alive – for now. For the entire 60 minutes, the result of the game was in doubt, but the Colts were able to make enough plays late to claim their first win of the season. Because every other team in the AFC […]
Oooof. Tough first two weeks for the Colts. The loss against the Lions was self-inflicted due to questionable clock management and a strange decision to gift wrap a free pass to the 25-yard line while trying to nurse a one-point lead with :35 left. Against the Broncos, it was the 15 points generated by malfeasance […]
Hard to blame Indiana University football coach Kevin Wilson for imploring fans to stick around for four quarters during games at Memorial Stadium. If I could see half of the listeners flip their radios off at 4:30p, I would be disappointed too. Wilson asked fans to stick around this Saturday as the Hoosiers face […]
The 2016 Indianapolis Colts season appears to be little more than an extension to the disappointing 2015 season – one that began with Super Bowl dreams and ended with broken bones, torn ligaments, and a front office and coaching staff staring into the abyss. General manager Ryan Grigson and head coach were saved from the […]
As ridiculous as it is to write on September 13th – less than 48 hours after game one of 16 – the clock is ticking loudly on the 2016 Indianapolis Colts season. If Matt Prater’s game-winning 41-yard field goal had sailed left as it looked like it might, we would be having a different conversation, […]
