  1. Hope everyone had a great week. Today we will see if any of the Colts made the trip down I-74 or if they sent the substitute team again. Let's hope the real Colts show up.

    Sadly, I will have to check out for a bit during the 1st quarter as I need to take my sons to a birthday party, but hopefully will be back by halftime....let me know if I miss anything.

    GO COLTS!

  2. Cool. I dont like to give up or give in. The feel good from a win after predicting a win against the odds feels astronomically better than feel good from a win after predicting a loss.....and its not even close. (not saying you feel one way or another)

     

    In my world......its called spine. Looking stupid or wrong after predicting a win or having faith on your team has zero effect on me. Losing that faith has a horrible effect on me. "You dance with those who brung ya."

     

    BTW,,,,did I mention we were going to win? ;)

    How do you feel about predicting a win, and then we get creamed? (hypothetically of course)

  3. This is somewhat misguided because you're talking about all the guys drafted in the NFL.  The average career in the NFL is much different when you're talking about higher draft picks.  For instance, in an ESPN mag, citing a 2011 study by the NFL, the average life span for ANY player drafted that makes the 53 man roster is 6.86 seasons.  If it was a first round pick, they have a career length of 9.3 years.  Players who make a pro bowl have a career length is 11.7 years.

    Good stuff, thanks!
