I was watching The Rich Eisen Podcast on NFL Network and Rob Lowe [a big colts fan] was on there talking about Tom Brady, movies and yes the Colts... And Coach Caldwell. He start talking Colts football at 50:37

Some of his quotes...

''Peyton is my favorite athlete in the world''

''I turned on the ticker to see 2 Coaches was let go today and 1 of them wasn't Jim Caldwell was STUNNING''

''I just don't know what's the hold up'' (meaning why Caldwell hasn't been fired yet)

''I told him [Jim Irsay] last year that I wasn't a gigantic Jim Caldwell fan''

Good to see Famous fans of the Colts want Jim Caldwell out of here.

Weren't we all? ;)

''I told him [Jim Irsay] last year that I wasn't a gigantic Jim Caldwell fan''

This is probably why Caldwell still has a job.

This almost changed my opinion, then I remembered that he's a lousy actor. :sarcasm:

Really, who cares. When someone you respect says something that you agree with, it makes you feel good - like you have something in common with them.

On the other hand when someone you don't respect says something that you don't agree with it's a bit more confusing.

In any case, I'd prefer to wait and hear what Emilio Estevez and Demi Moore have to say before drawing a conclusion.

Demi Moore baby! I bet she would have great football advice!

Any of you know that he is currently on a prime time show called Parks and Recreation? It's based in the ficticious city of Pawnee Indiana, the shows creators visited Lafayette and modeled the show's town loosely on it....it's pretty funny and there have been numerous Colts references. One of the two main characters referenced Collie, Clark and Wayne at points during last season, wore a Colts jersey, and has playing for the Colts as one of his "bucket list" items if I recall....just an FYI

Rob Lowe is a stitch on Parks and Recreation.

True

Fine by me though. It's just somebody expressing an opinion. The air waves are full of that. It's what they do

Rob Lowe is a high profile Colts fan. I don't think Emillio or Demi are Colts fans

I know, that was an attempt at humor.

I have no problem with Lowe one way or another, he's harmless. I was sick of him in the 80's because he was one of those people who got an outsized volume of attention relevant to his talent because the girls loved him - but at this point he is just another actor. I've never watched Parks and Recreation.

Any negativity on my part comes not from him, but from how this off-hand opinion - no more relevant that any other opinion on this forum - inevitably becomes the foundation of another "fire the coaching staff" thread. I don't even read the vast majority of them at this point.

I have no idea if a different coach would have yielded better results this year or not. If they get replaced, so be it. I just don't like the endless screams for a bloody sacrifice. They aren't made out of concern for what's best for the team, but rather from the impatient desire to see someone "pay" for the horror that has unfolded. There's as much thought behind it as there is at your typical lynching. And there's nothing like a celebrity endorsement to reassure those in the mob that their torches are raised high for a just cause.

      Can you expend on this, why do you think that?

      No, but I would love that! Is that true? Where did you hear that? I don't think that will happen. I heard that trading Herbert would result in a huge dead cap hit for the Chargers, that would make it nearly impossible to keep or sign other players.
