Anthony Richardson getting married and having a baby

I believe him being injured was a huge part of it, but I would not doubt at all his wife wanted him to retire as well due to him getting banged up. He had the money to do so and could be a stay-at-home family man with his wife and kids and be 100% healthy. To me that is very believable. 

I see nothing wrong with what AL did. He was getting his butt kicked due to the franchise not building a decent OL. Luck is a very intelligent guy with a beautiful and successful wife and a beautiful new baby and was smart enough to know his own body and knew if he kept taking a beating it could effect his brain and cripple his body which would effect his future. He not only had millions to retire on but the brain to earn well in society. 

Yes his decision hurt the franchise but we will survive. He made a huge decision to retire. I appreciate his decision as a person who has had a double knee replacement and a couple back surgeries that has affected my quality of live as I didn't know when to back off. 

To think this is a precursor to any future Colt QBs that get married and have children is a little silly. Marriage and having children have a tendency with most men to buckle down and work harder at their jobs. I think AR, coming from his background will be one that will work his rear off to assure that his children will have a better life than he did like I and I think most men who were not born with a silver spoon have done. God bless he and his family.

Fair enough. I agree with most of this. I have already explained my main point above. So I would hope some would understand I posted what I did. :thmup:

I agree mostly with what you said here and for me it’s not the marriage part as much as his injury history and rough debut, like Luck it could effect his decision making now that he has a small family. Hopefully he hangs on for that first big contract(although that would be be bad for team) and gives us a period of amazing injury free QB play before he decides to hang up his cleats.

She looks like she is due any minute. She was pretty big in the pictures she posted. Looks like a boy and will be Anthony Jr.

Kid is coming out 5'7, 160lbs with a 4.32 40 out the birth canal.

    • Does a reporter bear any responsibility about what he includes in his pieces? Sourced or not? Is everything a source tell you printable? Is everything worth printing? BTW I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, I just wonder if there are any ethical considerations a reporter might have when reporting on this type of touchy subject, especially when some of those anonymous scouts might have vested interest in a player getting drafted higher or lower than currently projected? 
    • Again….   McGinn didn’t do the damage to Mitchell.  The scouts did.     And there are columnists like McGinn at every major paper.  Their job is to gather info and report it, whether it’s popular or not.    Let me turn this around.  Hypothetically, a few years from now if Mitchell doesn’t pan out and he’s moody and difficult to deal with and he’s a bust, then the scouts will have been proven correct.  And people here will say McGinn’s column was spot on.   Another person who should’ve handled his business better is Mitchell himself.  He’s been living with this since he was roughly 16.   And scouts said he interviewed badly with them.   Even Mitchell admits it.     I don’t think this is as black and white as it seems to you.      To be clear…. I love Mitchell.  Glad we drafted him.  I’ve said several times that Ballard defending him draft night was smart and scored points with the kid.  Now he comes out and says that exact thing.  He appreciates that Ballard defended him so hard and he wants to pay the Colts and Ballard back by being the best player he can be.   
    • I’d say those teams that lost had worse defenses compared to the winners. That’s not to say that their defenses were bad, they just weren’t as clutch in the big moment.    To me, defense matters a whole lot when you need a stop or a momentum change.    Look at all of the star studded power offense teams of the last decade who were incapable of winning it all. 
    • Oops that’s my mistake. Yeah I completely missed that. My apologies.   But yeah he’s one I would keep an eye on for us next year. Him and Will Johnson. It’s a little early to be talking about what the Colts would do in the draft, but I would put money on this being the year Ballard takes a DB high. I could also see him go D-Line again. I love college football and watch as much of it as I can, but I’ll be paying attention to a lot of the guys you listed at those positions. Last season I watched a lot of the teams that had the elite receivers (Washington, Texas, LSU, FSU, etc…).   I’m also getting ready to fire my draft podcasts I listen to back up and look at summer scouting. I’ll come back for some discussions as I get info as I always enjoy talking prospects with you.
    • The issue some may have is the kind of journalism where Bob McGinn created an article that affected a young man's career based solely upon anonymous sources.   I'm confident you will reply back referring to your experience as a journalist with some version of 'without anonymous sources, there would be no journalism'. I value reading your insight about how sports are covered and I don't disagree that anonymous sources can be important. Its fair for anonymous sources to give background about things they are not comfortable saying out loud.   However, I'll add that perhaps its also fair for Bob McGinn to use his anonymous sources to help him find the story and craft the story, but if nobody will put their name on it then Bob McGinn needs to dig deeper before he launches infotainment into the world. He can't take back the damage he did to AD Mitchell.
