Matt Ryan is the most important Colts player, so he's paid the most!  How important is Kenny Moore, and how much should he be paid?  

(at 9:39) Xavier Booker (Cathedral) has been invited to the USA Basketball 18U training camp, and is now ranked the #4 player in his class!  

(at 11:02) Mike Woodson's Hoosiers and Mike Woodson will play in the 2023 Empire Classic, along with Louisville, Texas, and UConn.  

(at 12:15)Cubs and Reds with testy exchange breaking up the monotony of the Reds 20-5 laugher.

Frank Reich says Matt Ryan is "insane accurate," and that will translate to much better yards after the catch.  Kenny Moore is sitting optional OTA, but in attendance.  If he sits minicamp, the fine will be substantial.  

(at 8:00) Mike Woodson wants Louisville and Kentucky back on the Indiana Basketball schedule.  The Louisville deal will get done, but until John Calipari agrees to return to Assembly Hall, IU should stand firm against playing the Wildcats.  

(at 12:10) The weather looks spectacular for the 106th running of the Indianapolis 500, and one out of every 1,000 Americans will attend this years race.

Kenny Moore went to a Pro Bowl and now wants a new deal.  And he's sitting today's OTA to try to compel the Colts to sit down and hammer one out.    

(at 8:05) Marianne Stanley fired as Indiana Fever coach.  Carlos Knox replaces her.  

(at 11:17) Marquee Network might be the most morally bankrupt sports network in America.  The Cubs suck this year, but Marquee has made watching them lose even less fun with their smiley, feel-good inanity!

Matt Ryan, Yannick Ngakoue, Stephon Gilmore, and of course Jonathan Taylor will be key to proving Peter King is as wrong about the 2022 Colts as he was the 2021 Cincinnati Bengals!  Colts missing piece is not just its own quarterback play - but affecting opposing quarterbacks, which was an area of failure last season.  

(at 13:00) Steve Kerr speaking out about gun violence is a great thing - especially if you disagree - because more informed perspective is a good thing.  We can disagree without it turning to hate, right?

Quenton Nelson should be a Colts, but at what price? Can Parris Campbell stay healthy?  Is Gus Bradley's defense going to be more effective than Matt Eberflus's?  Can Jelani Woods win the starting TE job?  And what do the Colts need to do to change their typically slow start?

Nick Foles signs for two years to back up Matt Ryan, and the Colts hope they just wasted a bunch of money because no one wants a back-up QB to play!  James Morgan was waived to make room for Foles.  

(at 10:25) Dan Dakich and Mark Boyle talked about pregames today on The Fan, and I go a step farther today.  TV pregames are of zero use whatsoever, and all programming on the Marquee Network is useless other than revisits with those who played for the 1969 Cubs.  

(at 15:00) If the Indy 500 is blacked out locally, it has nothing to do with selling ticket.  Being televised enhances tickets sales.  It does not suppress them - and every sports franchise and media company manager knows it.

Colts have dominated the AFC South over the last decade, and have pieces in place to win the division in 2022!  Alec Pierce and Stephon Gilmore are upgrades who need to stay healthy and produce!  

(at 10:00) Trayce Jackson-Davis returning to IU Basketball gives him a chance to cement his status as an all-time great.  He should graduate as the blocks and rebounds leaders and become the sixth Hoosier in history to score 2,000 points.
