Old enough to know better, but doing it anyway.

When you look at the injury history from the Colts, the Pacers, and the Fever you can’t help but wonder if there is something wrong with the drinking water in Indianapolis. I think I’d be trucking in H2O in the future if I was the GM for any of these teams. Joking…..(maybe)

[Indianapolis Colts @Colts]

we have placed LB Joe Bachie on IR.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

I understand what he thinks he is doing here, but IU has won as many team national championships in the last 23 years as Purdue has won in their entire existence. IU has “25”Natty’s in total, compared to Purdue’s total of “4.”

[Nick Yeoman @NYeoman]

Already less than impressed with Purdue’s new athletic director hire.

Why????

Why in god’s name would you say this?

Do you realize how dumb this makes you look???

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

The only chance the Colts have at sniffing .500 this year is if Latu and Tuimoloau have breakout seasons.

[Zach Hicks @ZachHicks2]

Adding Keenan Allen makes a ton of sense for both sides. Hopefully it happens… not sure there’s the numbers for adding another edge unless you are making a trade and sending out Tuimoloau along with a pick

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Unfortunately, I think the ceiling for the Colts this year is 6 wins. DJ’s mobility will not be what it was b4 the injuries last year, and the D still looks like it will struggle to pressure the QB. I hope I’m wrong, but the roster depth looks weak too.

[Zach Hicks @ZachHicks2]

Everything simply comes down to health at the most important positions/players, which is a terrifying thing to say for the Colts

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

The ref in the US v Belgium game is clearly showing his feelings about FIFA overturning Balogun’s red card. Lots of “no calls” that benefit Belgium and ticky tack calls against USMNT. But, Belgium is clearly the better team and looks to be 3 or 4 goals better than US.

Wildfire in NW Ontario today.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

“If a tree falls in the forest and one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” I’m pretty sure @WNBA is on the path to find out the answer to that age old question. Not only are they looking a gift horse in the mouth, they are literally punching it in the throat!

Stu Holden has pretty much ruined a very good England v Ghana World Cup match. Take a breath, man.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Kudos to @FOX59 for moving the T-storm Watch graphic to the lower left corner of the screen.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Gotta love @FOX59 putting their thunderstorm watch graphic on top of the World Cup game score graphic! I can’t see the score, but I do know there is a T-storm watch 50 miles away from me! Nice job!

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Will Buxton is not my cup of tea. Dude has diarrhea of the mouth and raises the volume way too much. Take a breath, Will. No reason to scream. Calm down and let the fans enjoy the race. It’s OK to let there be a second of silence here and there.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

If the NFL insists on having international games, they should all be pre-season games. No regular season games should ever be played outside of the USA.

[Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo]

Inching closer to 16, which would mean one per team and set up an 18-game season with a full international slate.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

This feels like a “not so subtle” jab at Indy and Chris Ballard.

Or, if a https://t.co/zqh5By7QrN subscriber pays for an additional in market streaming service that should unlock all other blacked out teams for that subscriber.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

I also live in Indiana and I have a https://t.co/zqh5By7QrN subscription. It is ridiculous that I am considered in market for Reds (>100 miles away), Cubs (>200 miles), White Sox (>200 miles), Tigers (>250 miles), Guardians (>300 miles). All blacked out.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

We don’t even have a MLB team in Indiana and I can’t watch 16% of the teams play even with a https://t.co/zqh5By7QrN subscription. These team blackout zones should not be permitted to overlap. Every address should only be considered in market for one metro area.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Yeah, achilles rupture is rough to come back from. DJ should be back on the field by the season start, but his mobility will be diminished to some extent for several more months. The Colts look like a 4 to 6 win team right now w/this roster. And depth is a real concern.

[Jason Spears @ForTheCOLTure_J]

I admire your optimism, but I just don't see it. DJ off an Achillies injury, a guy who has had 1 healthy season, and never had 2 good seasons in a row. You are asking a lot. Then throw in no first-round pick, not much left on the FA market, and mostly day 3 picks. This team has more holes than a Jamaican shirt. Ballard would have to hit on every pick, and they will all have to contribute right away. Simply, not going to happen.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

This just feels like Indy agreeing to let him go so that he has a chance to play for a winner before he retires. From the outside, it looks like Indy is writing off 2026 and already planning for 2027. And Kenny doesn’t really fit Lou’s scheme.

[Zach Hicks @ZachHicks2]

Really weird timing for the Colts and Kenny Moore II trade. Colts have a few major needs and very few avenues to fill them by training camp. Plenty of cap space though.

So dumping another starter for what likely won’t be a big return seems odd at this moment

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

A bad Indy defense just got worse. Hopefully they make some major moves because right now this looks like a 5 win football team.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Sources: Colts and Kenny Moore II mutually have agreed to seek a trade and a new home for the veteran cornerback. Moore is entering the last year of his contract, and both sides feel it is time to explore a trade.

[NotCrazyHoosierDad @HoosierDad_2_18]

Replay didn’t ruin baseball. Zero accountability for horrendous umpires is what ruined baseball. Had there been accountability for the umpires there never would have been a push to institute replay in the first place.

[Josh Brown @RhubarbBrown]

This is a wonderful example of why MLB Replay has ruined baseball. This is one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen. And instead of players and fans being pissed for decades, it was reversed immediately.
