As short as josh johnson's tenure was in indy........

[CR91]

he probably made more money in one day then most of us make in a year 

[pgt_rob]

Way to make us feel good about ourselves. lol

[Derakynn]

Read on twitter it was somewhere on the order of $44k. Around the amount the average person makes in a year.

Fools. I would have done it for half.

I know and he made that in a day for doing nothing. I don't see how any of these guys could ever go broke but it happens a lot to players.

[fatboy]

He's even eligible for the ring of honor, while we are not.

[Moncrief]

What I would do with that $44k......... Pay for my tuition at Purdue probably

Pay off my student loans....Grigs I hear you need a strong body to try and play OL, I can't do any worse than Lance LOuis. Put me in coach

[Ja'Crispy]

I wish someone would pay me $44K to drink Gatorade.

Like the great Alex Moran said. Backup QB is the best position in sports ;D

i'm not mad, jim sorgi might have had the best job ever

[2006Coltsbestever]

Sorgi had the best job in the world. Got a ring and made millions being Peyton's backup for years.

I read your posts and I agree with almost all of them, but that guy just worked harder in one week than most people can even imagine. Ever cram for a week straight in college? His week was that times 10. He did make some jake...but he did far more than nothing.

Nothing was a stretch word. I shouldn't of said nothing because being a Pro athlete puts someone in the top 1% of the world and he had to work hard to get that far and studying a playbook is very tough. What I meant by nothing, he didn't have to play to clarify my Post.

Probably the bigger thing than the paycheck, was landing on a roster and making himself more "ready" for other teams in the same need as injuries mount and teams go looking.

When we signed him, it almost was telling that Andrew wasn't going to play. I am just glad Hass didn't get injured and he played pretty well. We got away with 1 yesterday but I will take it. If Hass plays Thursday I will be really nervous though. Houston doesn't look good but they are better than the Jags.

There not really. Getting waxed by NE doesn't mean they are awful. Jax will best Texans.

Isn't he a backup for Eli now in New York? Anyone know how much actual playing time Sorgi got if any?

[King Colt]

Signed with the Colts on Oct.2-released Oct.5, if he made 44K that's $14,666/day. If you look at his college playing days he was a standout, just could not make it with many teams in the NFL. NFL, stands for "Not For Long" is not just a saying.

What are you doing in Laffy! Get out!

[Moncrief]

No I think he is out of the league and basically works for the Colts as a commentator/play breakdown analyst

I read he got a 53 man roster finalist ring.

[ColtStronger]

ANNNNNND He's back, with a bat of an eye... Colts resigned him today with Luck still a little sore, and Hasselbeck's illness

If you're talking about Jim Sorgi, I think he does an internet segment with the Colts on this website!

[Coffeedrinker]

Sorgi commented one time that yeah it was the best job in the world until it's the 4th quarter of the AFCCG against the Patriots, Colts trailing by a TD and Manning, after banging his thumb on Glenn's helmet, comes to the sidelines and says, "Start warming up."

If Peyton would've left that game that would've been disastrous. That come back win pretty much defined his legacy. That was the biggest win of his career.

[RockThatBlue]

He does radio commentary during colts games with Bob Lamey and he appears on the show Colts Up Close. He's really good too as an analyst

[ReMeDy]

That's another nice new car, day one. If he's one of those poor athletes, he could even sleep in it.
