Austin Collie is "fine"
Jim Caldwell said in his Monday press conference that Collie is fine after he appeared to get a stinger in Sunday's game against the Texans.

That's great news.
I thought from my spot in the stands that it was just a mild concussion. Glad I was right. By the way, I’ll be here the rest of the night, so if anyone wants to use this as the pregame thread, I’ll be here to entertain you.

CBS did a good job on zooming in on him
He didn’t have the bug eyes, or a blank stare, so I was pretty confident it wasn’t a concussion. He was also lifted up by both arms, which meant it wasn’t a separated shoulder or collarbone.
I had it pegged as a stinger, which looks like that’s what it was. I’m glad I didn’t spend 300K on medical school.

with their coverage. I shouldn’t be surprised.

yea,
was kinda funny seeing him laying prone on the ground (thats not funny) but randomly jutting his arms up in a robotic fashion. Only thing that concerned me was that he didnt come back in the game. We’re gonna need him this week. Its starting to remind me of the 2007 version of this game when the colts were demolished by injuries and ran out of gas in the 4th

this is a bit good news and although
i am sure brown will be in on sunday it would be great for them to come out and say he is alright to play
GO COLTS!!! 09 IS OURS!!!

I worry that he suffered a setback last Thursday
which is why he was held out of practice on Friday

ive never understood this from COlts fans
read between the lines. If the coach says someone is day to day or ’we’re not sure of the extent of that injury at this time’, then they are out for the week (with the major exception being Freeney, but if you listened to Polians radio show, Free said he wanted to play because he could walk.). If he gives you a positive diagnosis, then its a pretty good shot that they are going to play. They’re not ‘secretive’ so to speak, they just dont offer anything. But their ‘not offering’ anything sort of fits a pattern. The fact that he said Collie is ‘fine’ would indicate to me that Collie will play this week. If he had said, ‘I think Collie is day to day while we determine the extent of his injury’ i would think Collie might actually be dead.

According to Phil B,
the Colts list every player with an injury as day-to-day. There is no lines to read between.

well i guess im not reading anything, im listening
Listen (not read) what Caldwell says on Mondays. When he says a player is day to day, that player is out that week. When he says something positive, such as ‘that player is fine’, or ‘we anticipate him getting back to practice this week’, etc.. they will play.
But I’m no Phil B. I like him, but when it comes to injuries from the Colts, the indystar reporters (partly by design) are the last to know anything.

I confess, I wish there was more detail to the news on Collie...
… for example, I would’ve loved to hear “there’s no concussion, there’s no damage to the neck, it’s only a sprained (fill-in-the-blank)”, etc. etc., but we’ll take what we can get. Sports teams tend not to be that detailed anyway, and on top of that, I would guess that Collie still needs to see a doctor later this week. So we wouldn’t have any final word until then.
As a derail: NFL Network just had a commercial for Alyssa Milano’s Touch line of logoed sportswear. All I gotta say is (* drool *) Alyssa Milano!

i dont want simmons to do my thinking for me,
im talking about actual examples that apply to us. The poker one applies to me, since i play about 5.6 billion hands of poker a month. Internet geek hot applies, since im an internet geek. Sports writer hot does not apply, mainly because im not gay and i dont want to switch hit with Bob Kravitz.
