Colts-Jets Preview

Colts Preview

Well with 5 games left in the season and in 3rd place the Colts are surprisingly in control of their own destiny. This Monday they take on the Jets in what should be a tight battle. Luckily the Jets secondary isn’t doing all that great this season so Luck should be able to throw all over them. Colts have some players who may or may not be playing that are very important to their team. TY Hilton, Vontae Davis, and Robert Mathis are all suffering from minor injuries that can impact their availability for the game. Luckily Andrew Luck will be able to play after missing last week with a concussion. 

Fantasy

Jets have a pretty good run defense so I don’t know how well Frank Gore will do but their secondary is awful so Luck will throw all over them. I expect TY (if he plays), Moncrief, and either Dwayne Allen or Jack Doyle to have a big game. Phillip Dorsett could also have a big game as he’s come up with some big receptions the past few weeks. 

Colts-Steelers Recap

Colts Recap

Well that was a tough Thanksgiving. In a 28–7 loss to the Steelers the Colts did not look good at all. There were some good moments, backup QB Scott Tolzien did decent enough to probably be brought back next season but he couldn’t convert on two costly 4th and 1’s from the goal line. The defense especially suffered as Vontae Davis got beat multiple times by Antonio Brown and had to leave the game. Colts were injured a lot as TY Hilton, and Ryan Kelly also had to leave the game. It’s looking like everyone will be back for the Jets game on Monday though. 

Fantasy

Nobody really showed up in a significant way for fantasy purposes, the usually consistent Frank Gore and TY Hilton did awful, and Adam Vinatieri missed a field goal again. With Luck back next week it should all be back to normal. 

Division One Conference Realignment

Division One conferences are always argued about. Should UConn be in a Power Five conference? Should the Big 12 expand? These are questions that come up almost every year. However, I believe it would be better if we just started over. Conferences can finally be set in stone.

Trump Vs Clinton Athlete Endorsements

This is a list of college and pro athletes or people related to sports (baseball, basketball, football, hockey, golf) (not saying the rest of the sports aren't sports but these are just the ones I chose) who supported either Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump for the presidency. This is just a brief summary of the people and which position they played, I will go into more detail in the next few articles on the rosters and also compare the teams and see who would win in a hypothetical matchup between the two.

Colts-Steelers Preview

Colts Preview

Well when it looks like the Colts are starting to get in a groove to make a run for a playoff spot, Andrew Luck gets a concussion and he’s going to be out for what will be a huge game on Thursday Night Football vs the Steelers. In his place will be Scott Tolzien, who is best known for starting a few games a few years ago for the Packers when Aaron Rodgers was injured, and he did not do well at all. Luck has been sacked 35 times this season, by far the most in the NFL and has been hit much much more, so it was just a matter of time before he got injured again. This offensive line problem has been an issue for so long that you wonder how much longer Andrew Luck’s career will be. On another note, I expect this to be a big game for Frank Gore as the Steelers run defense leaves a little something to be desired. 

Fantasy

The only Colts players who I’d consider starting are Gore and Vinatieri. We don’t know how good Tolzien will be and who will get the primary targets with him at QB, you’d hope its TY but when Matt Hasselbeck was the backup a few years ago, TY got a significant decrease in targets. But we do know that someone will, so I expect either TY, Moncrief, or Doyle to have a big game. 

Prediction 

Steelers 49 Colts 10

Colts-Titans Recap

Colts Recap

Well the Colts are back to .500 and are in the thick of playoff contention because of their win over the Titans. They scored on their first 3 possessions to take a 21–0 lead, but before they knew it the Titans had stormed back and it was 21–17, luckily the ageless Adam Vinatieri was able to make a field goal, avenging his rare missed one earlier and the Colts were able to pull off the victory. Luck had his usual dominant game with 2 TD’s and an INT with 262 yards, while TY Hilton had 97 yards and a TD, while Frank Gore had 121 all purpose yards. The defense showed up for once too, and they came up with a season high of 5 sacks. 

Fantasy

Luck, TY, and Gore had their usual dominant fantasy performances and still remain a must start in all leagues. Now that Donte Moncrief is healthy I think he is becoming the de facto second option for Luck as he finished with 4 receptions for 37 yards and a TD

Colts-Titans Preview

The Colts are coming off their bye week to face the Titans who are fresh off a demolition of Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. With a week off the Colts should be getting healthier with the returns of LG Jack Mewhort and DL's Henry Anderson and Kendall Langford. WR Phillip Dorsett should be returning as well and he should be a key part of the offense. Last time the Colts played the Titans the Colts were able to win because of a brilliant game by Andrew Luck as the defense was pretty mediocre, most likely they will need the same thing to happen again. 

Fantasy 

The Colts players who you should start are Andrew Luck, TY Hilton, Frank Gore, and Adam Vinatieri. At this point you probably want to roster Jack Doyle and Donte Moncrief but I wouldn't start them because the targets between players fluctuate often from week to week.

Prediction Colts 27 Titans 24

The Plight of a Minor League Baseball Player

When people think of athletes, they think of really rich overpaid people who get paid millions of dollars for playing a game for a living. That's not wrong, athletes who are the best at what they do and sometimes not even close to the best (i.e. Jay Cutler) get paid millions of dollars to play a sport for a living. However not all athletes get paid this kind of money or have a lot of luxury in their life. Unless you are a really good international free agent or a very high draft pick, most minor league baseball players actually make below minimum wage. These athletes work about 60-70 hours a week, and make about 1,100 dollars a month which is less than 4$ an hour if they were being paid regular time for the first 40 hours of the week and OT the next 20 hours. Even in the upper levels of the minor leagues athletes only make about 2,250$ which is barely above minimum wage. If each minor league baseball player was paid an extra 10$ an hour for 60 hours a week, it would cost the MLB team who pays their salary and whom they are affiliated with less than 3 million a year. One of the reasons that minor league players do not get paid that much is because they do not have a union, however some minor league baseball players are suing for back pay based on federal and state minimum wage laws.  On June 24th a bill was proposed in the US House of Representatives called "Save America's Pastime Act", this law explicitly stated that the 7500 minor league baseball players would not be entitled to minimum wage or overtime pay. As of September 19th this bill was still in the House Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, so hopefully the bill will die from inaction and the players will someday be able to be paid at least minimum wage.

Colts-Packers Recap

Colts Recap

Well that was unexpected. The way the Colts have been playing the past few weeks no one would have ever thought they would have any chance at all at defeating Aaron Rodgers and the Packers especially at Lambeau where they are basically indestructible. But you can never count out the Colts and when the game was over and the scoreboard said Colts 31 Packers 26, well it gave me a little hope that the Colts season may not be over in December especially in the AFC South. Luck wasn’t at his best today, far from it, but on those two critical third downs late in the 4th quarter where if he failed they’d be giving Aaron Rodgers back the ball to make a miracle comeback, he first converted to Jack Doyle and then to TY Hilton and before you knew it the Colts had won. 

Fantasy

Luck wasn’t at his best but he was still very solid with a TD and 281 passing yards. Frank Gore had 71 all purpose yards and 2 TDs both rushing. TY Hilton lead the Colts in receiving yards with 81, and Donte Moncrief was able to get a TD as well. Even with Allen back, Doyle received the majority of the targets at tight end, so he may have moved up on the depth chart to #1. 

Colts-Packers Preview

Colts Preview

Well when it seems like things couldn’t get any worse for the Colts, they get to face the Packers at Lambeau. The offensive line has been playing awful, the defense can’t cover anything and it seems like now anyone who has been productive is getting injured. Their best CB Vontae Davis is in the concussion protocol and is questionable, S Mike Adams and WR TY Hilton both got injured in last weeks game against the Chiefs, and the best offensive lineman LG Jack Mewhort injured his triceps a few weeks ago and has been out ever since. It’s a good thing Andrew Luck is still healthy otherwise the Colts would have absolutely no chance at winning this game. 

Fantasy

Obviously Luck, Gore, and Vinatieri are must starts, with TY being questionable I might consider taking a flyer on starting Donte Moncrief as he probably will be the #1 receiver. Depending on whether Dwayne Allen starts I’d also consider starting Jack Doyle too as Luck has developed a pretty good rapport with him.
