Either get out when you know it’s time or they’ll kick you out when they see fit

Nobody owes anyone anything… if you’re in the lineup that day give it everything you got that’s it

Next game isn’t promised for anyone

Yeah man, totally team invested guy, all the fucking way man, all the fucking way!

FUCK THAT QUITTER!

You'd have rather had a QB who had absolutely no mental investment in the game going out and starting at QB? Do you have any idea how much of a disaster that would've been? If he by some miracle avoided a major injury, idiots like you would've been calling for him to be benched by the end of the second game. Maybe then you'd've been okay with him retiring?

I wish it had been longer, but Andrew Luck created some great memories for us Colts fans in his seven years as the Colts starting QB. There's no reason to hate him, especially not 5 years later. Only a petty, spiteful fool would still be saying things like "FUCK THAT QUITTER!" at this point.

Bring on the single year contracts! Hell, might as well just have individual game contracts since tomorrow isn't promised.

No more hype videos / commercials featuring these players either, they don't have any responsibility to deliver the product that puts butts in seats that pays their bills.

As it turned out, he was playing in that game with a lacerated kidney.

But unfortunately, he didn’t have the fire, the zeal, the innate drive to compete and succeed that are the mark of greatness.

Bullfuckingshit, he had that in spades, so much so that he put the team ahead of himself to the detriment of his own mental health, which was eventually the thing that drove him to retire.

I was being facetious.

Read my post again, look at what I highlighted in red in the post that I was responding to, and do so with that in mind.

I would have rather had a QB who had the decency to tell the team WHEN HE KNEW it in his heart (as several have speculated, following the final game of the year prior)- "Hey, sorry to tell you this, but I'm not coming back". Nope, he waited, and by all accounts, told the team 12 days before a season he was done. Leaving a franchise with absofuckinglutely NO alternatives and literally setting off a 5 or so year cascade of fucking shit (now 8 because we have the worst GM in football)--- ALL BECAUSE HE JUST FUCKING QUIT ON HIS GUYS!

You can tout his accomplishments, his greatness, his toughness on the field- yep they were all there on display and will live on in history.

NONE of those things changes the fact the man went to mid field, stood on the horseshoe, pulled it out, and pissed all over the shoe.

FUCK ANDREW LUCK

In 1964, the Cleveland Browns won the world championship.

In 1965, the Cleveland Browns made it to the world championship game, losing a close one to the Green Bay Packers ....... the first of 3 consecutive world championship titles for that Packers franchise.

The Browns had a young man playing running back by the name of Jim Brown. In 1965, Brown led the NFL in yards (1,544 yards, in a 14-game season), and averaged 5.3 YPC. Brown also led the NFL in rushing TD's (17), and had 21 TD's overall, just one behind what was the all-time record at the time (22, by Gale Sayers in that same 1965 season.)

In July of 1965, the Browns opened training camp, and Jim Brown was not there ...... he was in Europe, where he was working on a movie called The Dirty Dozen. On July 13th, a very antsy Art Modell called Brown and threatened to fine him if he didn't immediately come back to the United Stated and report to training camp. What was Brown's response ??? He said, l "Yeah OK, Mr. Modell. I quit football. I'm an actor now. Good luck to you and the Browns."

So 8 weeks before the start of the 1966 season ....... with the Browns coming off of back-to-back world championship appearances, and with a 30-year-old Jim Brown coming off one of the best seasons of his Hall-of-Fame career ....... Brown very politely told Art Modell and the Browns to go fuck themselves, and that they were on their own in their quest for a 3rd consecutive world championship appearance (in what turned out to be the very first Super Bowl ever.)
