The Move
 

Anyone else checking this out? Pretty interesting stuff to fill the dog days of the offseason.

I saw it, but did not take the time to listen. is it any good?

It's pretty good. There is a lot that is rehashed stuff that most of us old timers already knew.

There are some antidotes that are probably new to most of us, and it does teach the younger Colt fans the history of the Colts.

Also, JJ is pretty good narrator.

Yeah, it’s good. Worth the listen.

I'll be the first to say that Robert Irsay was a bad owner, but the city of Baltimore really gave him no choice. The city of Baltimore backed him into a corner with the threat of eminent domain. He had to leave the way he did in the middle of the night, or they would have taken his team away within 24 hours.

Again, Irsay was a bad owner, but there have been at least 8 or 9 bad owners in the last 50 or 60 years of the NFL ...... none of those bad owners were threatened with having their team taken away, except for Irsay.

Finally listened to it in its entirety. Definitely good stuff.

Probably not as famous outside of Indy, but Lamey's "he fumbled the freaking football" still brings back memories!:D
