“Craig was a great team player not only for the Colts, but for Indianapolis and the world.” Colts owner Jim Irsay said in a statement. “As a team we could not have had the success we did without him. And there’s no question the world would have fallen into a double dip recession without his presence.”

I don’t think this guy is done.

Was it a film of two dogs?

Thats the epitome of hyperbole.

I do feel bad for Collie though.

Good point but dont take it out of context. He was simply refering to him as a warrior on the football field. These men are modern day gladiators

This is exactly why these athletes need to take advantage of the free education they get in exchange for playing. Pro careers only last so long and most never earn enough to never work again. Go to class and use the system back just as it uses you.

Man has the heart and talent for the NFL but not the body. Take this opportunity to leave the game enjoy life with your family while you still can. You can always try coaching if you still want to be a part of the game.
