He should retire whenever the **** he wants to. He owes the fans and the franchise absolutely nothing.
NFL: Andrew Luck RETIRING
- Thread starter Dandy
- Start date
Pretty shameless self promotion. But whatever. His whole career is built on ****** takes and then loudly defending those takes.
He’s such a moron and all he is doing is having a “hot take” that’s completely idiotic to get clicks/follows/listens.
Wellll.....if someone is looking for a conspiracy the first place to start would be that dirtbag Irsay

Season ticket sales aren't Luck's responsibility at all. Now if you want to put some of that on the team being cagey with the seriousness of the injury, trying to sell tickets, that's another story, but season ticket sales isn't likely something that Luck considered or should consider in making this decision. That's a front office problem, not a player problem.
Colts fans keep calling into Mad Dog to say they understand why he retired. Then proceed to say he should have stuck it out one more year. They clearly don't understand what Luck is going through.

Agreed. He seems like a very cool person and all, but his voice is weird. I'd still rather listen to him than that d-bag Tony Romo. Or any former Cowboy for that matter.
Ya know, there are people who go to college to get jobs like that and we get stuck with ex-players that have no personality. Stop it already!
And if teachers and steel mill workers made the kind of money that NFL players do, many would retire early.
There's a general rule of thumb that if you're not in it 100% or can't go 100%, you maybe shouldn't be doing it any more.
In his presser he got emotional a couple of times but I got a sense of relief from him as well. It can be empowering to take control of your own life.
I get the upsetness behind the ticket sales thing, but if you think every other organization wouldn’t do that (assuming they haven’t been covering it up since spring) INCLUDING ISU, then you live in a very innocent world I’d like to visit.
I am hard pressed to think of a nationally-known sports "talking head" that is more consistently arrogant/unlikeable than Dakich.
Maybe Gregg Doyel back in the day, but that's it.
I would pay money to watch an athlete beat the sh!t out of Dakich.
Considering how quickly franchises can drop or trade a player the moment they start to decline...I'm not sure how a player is expected to do anything different on their end.
