Today Chris Ballard confessed that the Colts problems are "all on him." And I agree wholeheartedly! He shouldn't be around for it to be on him any longer!
Well, if I was Jimmy, Ballard would have been gone, along with Frank, after the season ending loss to Jacksonville last season. IMO, a top level coach isn't going to consider the Colts as long as Ballard is the GM.
It looks like Damar Hamlin is progressing quite well. He's off the ventilator and talking to his family and teammates. The on field support was more than adequate, as has been his support in the intensive care unit of the UC Hospital! Hats off to all who participated to this point.
I was a fast pitch softball catcher back in the 1960's and I only wore a mask. I had ball marks over most of my body at the end of a season, but I loved playing the position. Looking back, I was real lucky that I didn't get seriously injured. The only serious injury I had was congratulating a home run by a teammate. I broke my hand in the melee.
I caught about 50-60 games a year for most of those years.
I'm so happy that Damar Hamlin is progressing. It looked pretty bad for a day or two. Medical science has really improved in the last 20 years or so. The on field response was swift and the first responders knew exactly what to do!
Some of the Bowl games seemed to be unevenly matched when announced, and I for one thought the Tulane/USC games was one of those. Boy was I wrong! It was a good one!
It's sad to see half empty stadiums in the first 3 games today, though. I hope the Rose Bowl has its usual big crowd. It looks like it on TV.
As much as I dislike BK, I can't criticize him for running up the score against a depleted Boilermaker team. It was bound to be ugly, and it was. Not much a coach can do but play his entire bench.
I agree! Notre Dame grads do OK after they graduate. The Notre Dame diploma helps 'em quite a bit along the way. I guess if you want, or need, fast cast, Notre Dame isn't for you.
