Pondering the Pacers: Way too early report card

The Pacers have been bad to start the season. Even with a win on Wednesday, it has not looked good. That being, beating Brooklyn while enduring the loss of Myles Turner impresses me as well. That being said, let’s get to the grades: Impressive Malcolm Brogdon, A Were I to declare a standout player ...

Crossroads College Football: Hoos that? The Hoosiers

For over two decades, the Indiana Hoosiers (6-2) have struggled to accomplish a record that was over .500. In fact, since 1994, the Hoosiers have been able to accomplish the feat once. In 2007, the school went 7-6. However, the 2019 Hoosiers are off to their best start since 1993, a year in which they ...

Offensive attack leads Jags to 3-2 victory over Green Bay

As the breeze rips through Carroll Stadium, the Jags’ Miranda Ricks nets the third goal to go up 3-0 in the 18th minute.

Considering the Colts: Trap Game awaits Indy this week

Last time I checked, a win is a win and I’ll take it.  The Denver defense is not ranked 4th in the league for no good reason, and they gave the Colts offense fits all afternoon long. I expected the offensive line to be tested, but not to break down so often. It seemed as if Jacoby Brissett was uncomfortable ...

What-If Wednesday, Part 4: One Guy Away

Write October 27th down in the record books, the NFL finally got something right! This Sunday’s prime time was great, even without Patrick Mahomes. Aaron Rodgers had one of the best throws I have ever seen, but that’s not what we are here to talk about; buckle up and get ready for What-If Wednesday ...

Pondering the Pacers: Pacers have room for improvement

The Pacers lost their home opener on Wednesday night to the Detroit Pistons. It was a close game, as the final margin was 119-110. However, there were some concerns that I had before the start of the season that popped up in Wednesday’s game.  Cons For starters, Andre Drummond completely pantsed ...

Considering the Colts: Why is Indy being disrespected?

The Colts were able to score another big win last Sunday, extending their winning streak to two games. Indianapolis now controls their own destiny in the division after the win against Houston put them in first place. But why do organizations like ESPN still disrespect the Colts and their 4-2 record? In ...

OPINION: NFL MVP watch, Week 6

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, not Christmas, but that time of year when ‘small sample size’ starts to mean even less than it did compared to the week before. The week where the Dallas Cowboys are currently on a three-game losing streak after starting off 3-0. The one where the ...

Considering the Colts: Indy scores huge win heading into bye

What. A. Win. Beating the reigning MVP at his own stadium is something the Colts should be proud of--but they aren’t satisfied yet. The Colts expected to win this game despite no one really giving them a chance. I mean, why would anyone give them a chance to go on the road to one of the best teams ...
