NFL: Andrew Luck RETIRING

[mywayorcyway]

Bizarre timing, and one of the strangest deals I’ve seen. News breaks on Twitter during the colts pre-season game. Fans in the stands are shocked, and the news travels to the sidelines during the game.

That is really strange. What was he/whomever decided to break the news thinking doing it at that point? In the middle of a game?

Something weird happened here.

Grab a bet on the under for the Colts ASAP.....whatever it was set at.

He's a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer that won't be because he simply couldn't stay healthy. I don't blame him at all - if I were injured all the time I'd want to quit as well. Has to suck being in pain all the time. To me the only shocking thing is he's doing this two weeks before the season starts. The Colts are effed.

Tank for Tua.

Colts fans sounding stupid on Mad Dog radio.

Damn.

Stolen from the Deadspin comment section.

"Looks like Indy's Luck ran out."

Yeah, these things go off the board fast.

Don't blame him one bit, enjoy your millions not getting beat up week in & week out.

It is disgusting how many sports talking heads on Twitter are saying he's basically a *****. Doug Gottlieb and Dan Dakich tweets are awful in my opinion. Not that anyone should be surprised coming from those two asshats I guess

Just checked out Dakich's...it reads very 'loud'.

Gotta imagine he had already told the Colts and someone that was not supposed to talk to the media let it slip. Especially with the wording of Luck informs the Colts that he's going to retire. This has to have come from the team.

Yeah and I think he's finally realizing it. He was responding to people's responses to his post and some weren't great and now he's deleted them it looks like.

Not only an All-Pro, but one of the nicest guys in the game.
Not sure what to think about Colts fans booing him as he left the field for the last time.

Put some of them in here. I don't do the twitter.

WOW! Glad my fantasy league has not drafted yet because he's been the the 5th QB drafted on average in some drafts and some fantasy "experts" had him as a breakout QB this year with an improved OL

If you have a different opinion than Dan Dakich, then you're probably right.

 

[Doc]

My god. Luck is one of the tougher QBs I have ever watched.

I say do what you wanna do
