[DirecTV / NBC (local)]

The problem for most of us in Indiana is Raycom which owns or partners with the NBC affiliates in the Evansville(WFIE), Louisville(WAVE), and Indianapolis(WTHR) have pulled their stations from Direct and the ST does not cover the Night games

 

What's "ST"??

[DirecTV / NBC (local)]

Wow, I've missed this topic or my 2 cents would have been added sooner.

 

(FYI, I live in TX, so things may be a bit different) I dropped DTV when I bought my house last year and I've gone to streaming and a wall antenna.  My wall antenna can be finicky, and it depends on where it is on the wall as to what channels I'll get.  ABC is the hardest for me, but it's no bother since Hulu usually picks up their shows anyways.

 

It cost $30 from Lowes and channels come in HD.  If you need a quick fix, it's the way to go.  

 

Doesn't DTV have an option for customers with Sunday Ticket to stream?  Or am I pulling that out of my bum?

[Colts Vs. Saints Preseason Game Night Thread]

Swope sighting!

[Colts Vs. Saints Preseason Game Night Thread]

"The World's Biggest Blue Hen."   

 

Heh. 

[Colts Vs. N.Y. Giants Preseason Game Night Thread]

That game was waaaay too long for preseason.  

 

But I like where our first and 2nd string is.  

[Training Camp News]

An automatic PUP candidate, right?

 

They have to be put on the PUP list prior to coming into TC. After camp starts, no one is eligible to be placed on the PUP list.

 

So no, not an automatic candidate.

[San Antonio Raiders?]

This is so weird for me.  I live in SA, and I luv football.  I saw this topic last night, but after two very long hot days at work, I decided to sleep on it before I formed an opinion (so it could at least be semi coherent).

 

So after a decent night's sleep...All I've realized is that I would be way more comfortable with a start-up expansion team than a moved team.  I fear that if the team did move here, and they weren't very good, they'd move back to CA (or wherever) in a few years, and the city would be cast aside.  Is that a weird fear to have?

[Josh Gordon Defense Looks Pretty Good]

eyeroll.

 

Maybe he was hotboxin' instead.  

[LaVon Brazill suspended for 1 year.]

Sad a plant will get you suspended for a year or in jail. 

 

Cocaine is derived from a plant.  Heroin is derived from a plant.  Should we be lenient on those because those are also from a plant?

[Donte Moncrief signed!]

The thing I'm worried about for him is that I hope he has hired a financial adviser of some sort.  Poor upbringing to new found wealth...Donte is going to have people coming out of the woodwork now.  

[Daryl Washington suspended for entire 2014 season]

Maybe Washington flat out failed a test, and Gordon missed a test?

[Colts OTA Thread (Official Thread)]

I've watched the videos on Colts.com.  My favorite part:  Seeing a glimpse of #83 moving around.  Can't wait to see ya back on the field D-Wayne!

[Every Single Day The Media Mentions Johnny Manzeil]

When? Besides that fake ID crap as a freshman if you count that

 

Why wouldn't you?  A custodial arrest = custodial arrest.  

 

If Manziel had three years in and was decent, I wouldn't have an opinion on the matter.  As it is...he hasn't proved anything in the league yet, except that he likes the cameras.  I'm very interested in seeing how he does, because IMO, he's not going to be able to take the hits week in and week out.  

[Compartment syndrome - never heard of it till I read this about Rahim Moore]

One of my coworkers had it on his arm from a dog bite/crush.  Nasty stuff. 

[Adongo at 282!]

I think pic #58 is Kameron Jackson.

[Mathis suspended first 4 games of 2014.]

Nooooooo!

[Colt Lyerla?]

Anger issues with a coke habit.  No thanks.

[Colts draft Donte Moncrief, WR, Ole Miss [Merge]]

IMO, the Moncrief pick wasn't really about this year, it's about next year and beyond.  I, for one, am happy we drafted a WR (I wanted Landry, but c'est la vie).  Reggie isn't going to be around forever and Nicks is using us as an audition.  Moncrief can use this year to learn and get ready for an expanded role in 2015.  

 

At least, that's how I see it.  We still need a safety, but for the value, I'm happy.

 

Welcome to the 'shoe Donte!

[the most underrated colts player]

Griff Whalen.  Because all he does is get 1st downs. 

[Dwayne Allen gets full medical clearance.]

Time for another dancing banana!

 

[Patriots targeting Tom Savage for Brady's replacement]

Why take Savage in the last first-early 2nd when you can get Logan Thomas in the 4th?

 

Because while Logan Thomas may have the prototypical size...he's horrible as a QB?

[Wayne expected to be cleared by the end of the month]

Woohoo.  Great news. 

 

[Compensatory Picks Awarded]

Right!  Thanks for the info.  I wouldn't say Mike Wallace's performance (73/930/5) warrants a 3rd round pick.  Jennings and Walden I can see, I guess, since both were starters

 

I may be mistaken, but I believe comp picks are based on the contract amounts, not whether or not the player is a starter or not (although usually the more money involved, the more playing time involved). 

[Report: Colts in talks for Alex Mack (mega-merge)]

Are teams still allowed to put in "poison pills" into contracts?

 

Nope.  The current CBA doesn't allow them.

[Charlie Casserly just said we should eat the Richardson deal and get CJ2k]

Um, why? We have Richardson, Bradshaw, and Ballard. Not to mention I think we've still got Kerwynn Williams stashed somewhere.

 

 

KWilly is somewheres else.  (google tells me the Chargers)
