Colts won't recoup $24.8 from Luck...

[ChoppedWood]

Because they reached a financial settlement with him...

LAST WEEK

He's been schemin' and plottin' on this for a while IMO...

More and more I think this guy is a greedy snake that doesn't really give 2 shits about his team mates...Go back to Europe and ride your snow board and stay away from anything that resembles a team you d-bag...

A) ) Good info. Thank you.


B) ) I like this ........ I see this as Irsay and company/the Colts organization taking the high road, and as far as I'm concerned, a good reputation is a good thing. The more that my favorite team appears to be the antithesis of the Patriots (a perennially cheating organization known for Spy-Gate and Deflate-Gate almost as much as they are known for their Super Bowl appearances and their Super Bowl wins) in terms of reputation/credibility, the better.

I said this in another thread, but “late last week” could easily mean Thursday or Friday of this past week.

Especially since he didn't inform Irsay until Monday that he was retiring

That $24.8M could have gone a long way in retaining and signing good players. It's quite a "parting gift" for a 29 year old

Nope. Half of that money was already given to Luck in 2016 (other half earlier in 2019) and the Colts have AMPLE cap space to do whatever they want.

This is just money out of Irsay's pocket which will have zero impact on anything, other than a token of goodwill to Andrew Luck. Not only is it the right thing to do, it won't dent Irsay's revenue and it won't prohibit the Colts from doing anything with other players.

At work we had this big project coming up. We had forecast a few quick million coming in the door by February. We still had some significant work to do to get it across the finish line, I was the Project Manager for it, had a bunch of developers and consultants doing some stuff.

This morning I went in and talked to the boss, told him I wasn't getting enough sleep, just didn't feel like I could keep doing it at the level he needed. I asked him if I could still get the $50K bonus that was supposed to make it to me at the end of the project. He said "F OFF", I have a bunch of other folks that are out there busting their asses trying to get this done, I will take that money and give more to them because now they will have to work harder. Get the F out of my office and don't let the door hit your ass."

That's fucking reality man. 12 quit on his team and for some reason people are all like, hey, he thought about doing the job, but he just felt like he couldn't, it's all cool to give him a dumptruck of cash.

I just don't understand this soft ass mentality at all. HE QUIT ON ALL OF US!

Just some advice: You’re taking this way too personally. I realize some people need to vent, but remove “me” and “us” out of your vocabulary when it comes to Andrew Luck.
