If my home team hires Caper-dick people would riot and the stands would be empty but the owner is a nutcase so there is that.

I wonder how long it takes for him to show up with his dad working for the XFL.

He needs adult supervision for sure. I’ve observed the deer in the headlights look for several years. He has some cards missing from his deck no doubt about it. Hopefully, he’s been getting, and taking, good financial advice. If yes, and he and his advisors manages his money wisely he will be ok.

Maybe he got tired of playing in a rat-infested shithole.

Oh wait, that was Baltimore. Guess it’s been a while since I cared about the NFL.

I haven’t watched the NFL in years, so I’m just spitballing here...

Is Jacoby Brissett a black guy?

If so, there’s the reason Luck “retired”.

Bet he was paid to go away because the players want a black QB.

I don’t follow the NFL and didn’t pay much attention to this story, but did Luck explain his timing? You retire at the end of a season or in off-season to give your team time to make whatever adjustments they can. Doing it now is entirely unprofessional. It’s a cheap shot to all of Luck’s teammates.

At least in Indy they run the 500 on a track. In Baltimore, the ferals car-jack rides and run their 500 on the Beltway.

Not if Luck’s teammates were behind it...

It’s a business and he owes them nothing.
How often do teams make hollow promises to players?
Maybe his wife being pregnant changed his perspective.

In a couple of years he will un-retire and go with a team that wants/needs him.

Yep, that's what the NFL is.

Wait for the clamor from the perpetual race agitators to bring in Kapernick as a ready and premium option - shits and giggles to follow.

I’m no professional handicapper, but even I could make this call.
