Indianapolis Colts - Matt Ryan to play in Buffa...
<p>Colts will continue to prepare for the season in tomorrow night's preseason opener! For Matt Ryan, it's all about timing - but for the tight ends it might be about which three of four are kept. Roster spots are at stake, and that is more important than the score. </p>
<p>(at 10:53) Butler Basketball had a perfect trip to Europe, and it wasn't just about the 4-0 record. </p>
<p>(at 11:12) If Indiana Football is ready to win, we will find out three weeks from tonight! </p>
<p>(at 12:13) Cubs won in Iowa, but the highlight came prior to the game! Whether you say "Have a catch" or "Play catch" depends upon where you grew up!</p>

Indianapolis Colts - Matt Ryan IS the answer, a...
<p>Matt Ryan might just be the perfect quarterback for these Colts - as long as Yannick Ngakoue and Kwity Paye can get to the opposing QB. Frank Reich still unsettled about the kicker. </p>
<p>(at 11:55) Bill Russell's #6 being retired across the NBA, which means Lance Stephenson will always be the best remembered #6 for the Pacers. </p>
<p>(at 13:00) Coors Light now the official beer of IU Athletics! (at 14:00) Butler wins final game of Italy/Greece trip to finish 4-0.</p>

<p>Shaquille Leonard is working hard to play in the opener! Frank Reich wants consistency in his history, which is like wanting a car that rolls forward. Matt Ryan will now play a quarter or a little less Saturday night. </p>
<p>(at 4:30) Result of Buffalo game meaningless - resist the temptation to care about winning or losing! Decision to hold Colts out for the Lions game is ridiculous. </p>
<p>(at 12:29) Victor Oladipo tweets to Pacers fans about Indiana's "delusional" front office. Why can't he just let it go?</p>

Indianapolis Colts - Matt Ryan to throw for 4,5...
<p>Optimism Wednesday is for best case scenario indulgence, and Matt Ryan being sacked less than 40 times would unlock a lot of doors. Kwity Paye and Yannick Ngakoue getting double digit sacks would close doors for the opposition! </p>
<p>(at 10:36) Colts GM Chris Ballard told Dan Dakich today that "media criticism never bothers me!" I should believe him, but can't because he claimed it doesn't. </p>
<p>(at 12:20) What to watch for against the Bills? How about injuries - that's it. Nothing else will matter - especially not the score! </p>
<p>Want a tip - given the choice to bet the Colts to win the AFC South at -125 and the Jags at +700, I take the Jags all day long.</p>

<p>Colts defense was outscored 157-97 in the fourth quarter last year, and it cost them a trip to the playoffs, and maybe the Super Bowl! Gus Bradley has come to Indy to change that, and he better. No practice today, and that works because the weather is terrible in central Indiana! </p>
<p>(at 11:14) Butler plays a pro team in Greece at 8:30a this morning and you can watch at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEDPrSWP544 </p>

<p>Each year we buy into the Colts being better, and in five of the last seven seasons the Colts finished outside the playoffs. Is this finally one of the few years where we know what we are talking about. Whether the supposed upgrades are actual upgrades will tell the tale! </p>
<p>Is Ryan better than Wentz? How about Pryor over Fisher? Gilmore over Ya-Sin or Pierce over Hilton? </p>
<p>(at 15:47) Pete Rose is the impossible topic! If you favor Rose going into the Hall of Fame, you reward an inveterate gambler and a guy who dated a 16-year-old when in his 30s. Yikes!</p>

It has been corrected, and so he expects to be better as a sophomore!</p>
