NBA Draft night is like Christmas to fans. Some teams provide fans with beautiful presents festooned in fancy colorful suits, and others swap gifts with other teams like they are at a white elephant party. Still others have routinely forget the spirit of giving. Add Cassius Stanley to Goga Bitadze, Aaron Holiday, Alize Johnson, T.J. Leaf, Ike […]
Here we are nine days away from the start of college basketball season, and I’m still giving serious thought to the possibilities offered by Indiana University’s football team. I keep thinking, “This must be what it’s like to be a Notre Dame graduate.” You know, the Indiana program with legendary names like The Gipper, Rockne, […]
If you’re a Colts fan, get over the disappointment yesterday’s loss generated. Take a deep breath, understand the limitations of this team’s offense, and stop the depressing din of doomsaying. Teams among the NFL’s best are going to beat the Colts, and lesser teams will lose to them. That’s just what the Colts are – an […]
There are very few coaches I would rather send my son to play for than Purdue’s Matt Painter, so I am sure Trey Kaufman will have a great experience as a Boilermaker, if 247sports Indiana Insider Mike Pegram was correct in predicting his commitment scheduled to be announced tonight at 6p. Kaufman will have a great experience regardless of which […]
On October 30, Trey Kaufman will announce his decision to attend and play basketball at either Indiana, Purdue, North Carolina, Virginia, or Indiana State. That I know his choices and timeline creeps me out just a little. This is a high school senior from Sellersburg, Indiana, and I shouldn’t give a damn which of those schools he […]
For as long as I can remember, I have been a guy who liked to call BS on cowardly management, corrupt policies, and bad mojo. Until today. Arrogance needed to be exposed as an unholy violation against humanity, or at least I used to think so. Dishonesty? It needs to be decried as the most repellent trait […]
Now that the Colts possible positive COVD tests have been ruled negative, let’s get back to football! The Colts have an opportunity to win against a lesser opponent this Sunday, and they need to take full advantage of it. If they don’t beat the rebuilding Cincinnati Bengals to run their record to 4-2, and follow […]
Football fans love them some third string quarterbacks, so it was inevitable Colts fans would embrace 2019 preseason hero Chad Kelly as their underdog de jour. Love for Kelly blossomed last preseason because he was more decisive and productive that either starter Jacoby Brissett or backup Brian Hoyer, who did set the bar nice and low in those two categories. […]
My Man Mitch! Stupidity must have a consequence, or it will be repeated. Purdue president Mitch Daniels clearly believes in that axiom. Because he does, 13 student-athletes were suspended from the university yesterday. THAT’S education! When Daniels enacted the Protect Purdue Pledge, he meant business. Violate its terms, and the result is adios, goodbye, and don’t […]
The NBA’s biggest problem is also one of its greatest strengths – it’s stars. Late NBA commissioner David Stern made the decision to market the league around its best players in the 1980s. Back then, the NBA had Michael Jordan, Julius Erving, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Isiah Thomas, and others to feature. The league went […]
