well they broke the rules, they got punished.  at least they didnt cry about getting caught and lie about it.

 

However, how dumb is it that there is a rule against practicing too HARD?!?!!?!?!?!? what the heck kind of rule is that?

Sounds silly but we got some injuries in the off season

True true. But seeing how there appears to be an injury rash, not only with us, but all teams across the league, I'm wondering if the new CBA isn't the true fault of this. The shorter off season combined with less hitting, maybe these athletes aren't in the shape they should be.

 

I'm not sure I'm explaining this the way I'm thinking I am. Let me put this another way,

 

When my unit was NOT doing 2 a day pt sessions, we had injury after injury, mostly shoulders and knees, we started 2 a day pt sessions with half the sessions focusing on stretching , our injuries plummeted to almost none. Now I know nFL reams and athletes are different but the human body isn't

    • Uuuugh.     I think it would’ve been better if I had preached a healthy dose of patience and NOT patients.        
    • Feel the need to clarify something.   The writer of the article, Bob McGinn, is one of the top-10 football writers there is.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) McGinn does NOT have an opinion on Mitchell.  It’s the unnamed scouts who have the negative opinions.  McGinn is quoting them which is his job.  He is supposed to do that.     Ballard even acknowledged that in his own way.  He literally said “put your name on it!”   Well, McGinn’s name IS on it.  it’s his column.   But it’s the scouts who are saying things anonymously.   If there’s an issue, (if) it’s with them, not McGinn.     
    • And when/if a team signs one of those safeties they’ll be made to look like a genius while Ballard is called a fool.    I think what’s more likely is that an injury will inevitably happen and a team will bring in an available free agent. That could be training camp. That could early in the season. You just never know. 
    • But if the Colts sign someone next week or the week after then it really doesn’t matter.    I would’ve preferred we sign some two weeks ago.   Get them familiar with the DC and position coach.   But once we didn’t then it really doesn’t matter when.  It just matters that we do it before camp opens.  At least to me.    And the fact no one else is signing these top FA safeties tells me the market just isn’t there yet.   I’m preaching a healthy dose of patients.  
    • How about getting a proven commodity in the FA market? I know that assumes the player wants to be here, but money talks and the Colts have some. This D needs a solid center fielder. Simmons fits that role perfectly. If he’s gettable, here’s to Ballard pulling the trigger, even if it’s a slight overpay. The team CANNOT leave this crucial position to players who have consistently underperformed in the past (Cross and Thomas).
