With Kelvin Hayden out, Tim Jennings was supposed to be the starting cornerback for the indianapolis
colts on sunday night when they take on the Arizona Cardinals at university of phoenix stadium. One hitch in the plans, however. When the Colts flight took off saturday morning, Jennings was no where to be found.
The Colts, worried about their player, notified the indianapolis PD. Confused and unable to find Jennings at his downtown apartment, police searched Colts facilities. They were on their way out the door when a final scan of the
field at lucas oil stadium produced the glimpse of a shadowy figure.
Said Police Chief Bob McBoberSon, "At first, we didnt think anything of it. The figure we saw was so short and skinny, we thought he was a yard gnome, definitely not an NFL player. But after realizing that the yard gnome was moving, we decided to interrogate it. After getting closer, we realized the yard gnome was Tim Jennings! We were shocked, obviously. We said to him,
"Tim, why are you here, you play the Cardinals tomorrow!"
'Bob, I have to cover Larry Fitzgerald tomorrow, I'm just getting ready.'
"But Tim..."
"So, I'm just gettin ready, gettin my cushion set..."
"But Tim, the game is in Arizona!"
"I know, have you seen Larry, he's FAST."

Hilarious!!!
For a second I really thought it was for real…I was thinking, “thank you, football gods!”
"Do I believe in aliens?" Stephon Marbury asked. "I don't know, because I've never seen one. But I believe in Jesus because I saw him in the shower the other day."
We should all hope Jennings gives Fitz some cushion. Given what that man is capable of, he can have the easy 5 yard receptions all damn night. We’ll be better off.
I agree.
I am concerned about what he does after the catch though. He is a pretty good after the catch.
Now a proud annoyance on Stampede Blue, 18to88, Indy Football Report, and Phil B's blog.
Man, I need a life...
Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: I blazed through my test in 20 minutes and sprinted back to my room just as the MNF theme song ended. Good thing too, with that 1st play. So, my streak of seeing every minute of every game since 2003 Tampa still stands. So, my Chem TA lives (for now).
Yeah he's not really that fast.
But he’s got mad ball skillz… Adjusts to the ball in the air better than anyone I can remember.
Dun nuh nuh nuhhhh!!!! Super Mathis

Dear Spazmo,
I think you could get a booking on The Tonight Show. I’m filing this one under, Things that make me laugh, after our injury report comes out and I"m all sad.

How many things are in that file?

A hell of a lot,
In fact it’s about to explode.

I hope he does
Maybe then he would leave Indianapolis and never come back.

Ironically, the rookies played pretty darn well against
“the best receiving corps in football.” Of course Freeney’s condo in Warner’s backyard didn’t hurt.
After seeing Wayne, Collie, and Garcon tonight, once we get Gonzo back, and throw in Clark, I don’t see how you can argue against the Colts having the best crew….
I hate Joe Namath. That's how long I've been a Colts fan.
