Eventful Two Days Lead to Clean House for Indianapolis Colts

By

Wow. Never mind suggesting what an emotionally draining season 2011 has been for the Indianapolis Colts. The last two days have been taxing enough. Entering Sunday's season finale at Jacksonville, the Colts were a once-proud franchise fallen from grace, a putrid roster bereft of its four-time MVP quarterback to mask its deficiencies and a trainwreck of an organization at … [Read more...] about Eventful Two Days Lead to Clean House for Indianapolis Colts
