It has been a statement week for the Purdue Men’s Basketball team, which has had back-to-back wins against two top ten teams. They have won their last ten games and sit atop the Big Ten Conference. Their latest victims have been Wisconsin, who had won their last 16 home conference games, and Michigan […]

To the New England Patriots: Sorry about your legacy guys. Have fun in the off season. And don’t worry about the cheating thing. I’m sure Goodell will appease Arlen Specter while the Giants are out celebrating their win. Hey, maybe Tiki Barber will commiserate with you.

One of the reasons why I like sports, and football in particular, is that they are readily analogous to life. Over the football season, you can see life lessons in action and have an opportunity to learn from them. More importantly, it is easier to talk about football problems than real life problems […]

The 2007 Football Season is upon us. Both the Colts and Boilermakers have gotten out of the gate with solid wins under their belts. Purdue beat Toledo last Saturday and will be playing Eastern Illinois tomorrow. I watched most of this game with a few friends, but we left before Dorien Bryant’s […]

This could be bad, bad news. Glenn has been an outstanding offensive lineman for years for the Colts. He went to the Pro Bowl last year. He’s been there for Manning’s entire professional career. Although my friends and I have joked that he’s always good for at least one false start […]

The Indianapolis Colts have signed Dwight Freeney to a record contract and not one that requires him to sing. The contract is 6 years for 72 million, including 30 million in signing bonuses. John Clayton reports that as a result he will only count 5.75 million against the salary cap the next two […]

Despite all the preparations, it appears that the Dallas bid won the right to host the 2011 Superbowl. Although, I understand that there is a strong football tradition in Dallas and in Texas in general, I don’t think that a football tradition really matters much when it comes to the Superbowl, which is less […]

The Colts selections are in! It appears that they are pleased with the results. As a fan though, I have to admit that I’m a bit puzzled. I went into the draft thinking the two spots we needed to fill first were at corner and linebacker because of the loss of Jason […]

I’ve been pretty busy with end of the semester stuff, but I would be remiss if I didn’t post about the Colts trip to the White House. Let’s hope this becomes an annual thing. In the meantime, I’m looking forward to the upcoming NFL Draft this weekend!

I’m not sure if UNC collapsed or if Georgetown rallied really well, but regardless of the method, the outcome is the same: the Tar Heels failed to make their 17th Final Four. I really didn’t think they would lose a fast paced game that favors their style, but they couldn’t close out regulation and […]
