While I think refunds/suing is ridiculous I think that anger at the Colts organization is more than justified. The way that they handled (if you can call it that) Luck's retirement announcement just caps off years of obfuscation and close to downright lying about this guys physical condition. Letting him be on the sidelines joking and smiling in no apparent physical pain when they knew he was going to retire, allowing him to make comment after comment about how he would be ready for the season and knowing what a bombshell this retirement announcement would, the Colts decided they could sit on it for a few days. That, in hindsight, was stupid. They lost the chance to roll out his retirement in a proper way that would have been much more respectful to both the fans and Luck.
