@Goldenmom4729 Was one of my favorite Colts players, just the man that he is. Persevered through so much but always stayed positive. Would be great story if came back and did well

[AWelder @AndyBall21]

@SconnieColt I believe all the Stroud talk is going to elevate AR. Could be wrong, but competition just brings the best out of certain people. Cant wait to see him rise up

[AWelder @AndyBall21]

@Goldenmom4729 Try and look at the bright side. More than likely would been without Taylor, Braden Smith( was huge difference when left game) and Juju. Not crazy about that scenario in big picture of things. Now we pick 15

@SidelineStormer @WISH_TV Hold your head up high. Takes a man to stand there under that fire and face the tough questions. In the end, it’s just a game. But you’re a worthy man Tyler Goodson

@colt_inman2009 I was born in 69, guess that’d put me about 7 yrs old or so watching Don McCauley play for the Colts. They were my heroes!

@Goldenmom4729 Was good first year in Indy too, then regressed

One meeting, one phone call can change the trajectory of your life

In 2000 I had a brand new wife (less than 6 months) who was 18 years old and a 6 month old son

I owned a roof removal business/demoltion company with 8 employees. I was 21

It was an El Niño year = a lot of rain = not many work days

We were broke, had no savings, no family help and fighting to make it in every area of life

After the rain stopped I got a call from Sexton Roofing, new customer, needing a couple hundred squares of wood shake torn off at a local HOA. It was a good size job and I needed the work

I drove my 1963 Ford C600 dump truck with guys in the back and we worked for 2 weeks tearing off roofs

The invoice was just over $13,000 - literally ALL my net worth

For two weeks I kept asking about billing, payment terms and who to send the bills to - NO response. I couldn't get a hold of anyone at Sexton Roofing

So I drove to the job one day. There was one worker there on a large job.

I said "hey do you work Sexton Roofing" they went under kid - im just here to see what needs fnished

My heart sank.

I had payroll on Friday - NO money

Then they guys says "there used to be another roof removal guy working in here. his trucks said 1-800-roof removal"

I immediately called the number

A man named Liam Carlin answered (the owner)

I told him I had worked on the HOA project and I hadn't been paid. Asked him what he knew and what I should do.

He said - come to my office right now and bring the invoices for the buildings you've worked on

I drove directly to his office

He said - I have a contact at the HOA and she is paying bills for the work done. I am going to put your invoices in my name and I'll collect the money for you. It was $13,000 - I was about to cry

Liam then said: do you have money for payroll.

No I dont. Im broke, all my money went into the job.

He pulled out $5,000 in cash, handed it to me. It was enough to cover payroll

He said come back on Friday and Ill have the palace for you

He had ZERO reason to help me - ZERO

In fact if he didnt - I would have not payed my workers, lots my crew and most likely been out of business

He saved me - he changed my life

I went on to a 20 year career in demolition

Ive supported my family, sent my kids to college, bought a house - all because the kindness of a stranger

My son in named Liam - hes named after a man that changed the trajectory of my families life

I still talk to Liam Sr almost daily

Happy New Year
