My weekends are currently midweek, and in a couple weeks the Colts have their training camp at nearby Indiana State University (home of the fighting tulip tree leaves!). I'm taking this opportunity to print out the site logo and make a name badge, wear some khakis and a polo, grab a clipboard, and see if I can get some quotes as press. I'm official.
That would be awesome.
Any requests for specific players or questions? I figured to use sports video games as my in angle and go from there. Football players are inherently funny (also: MACHO), so some sort of article should write itself, assuming I can actually get some quotes. Of course the whole thing might suck or I could hit a brick wall of bureaucracy or procrastination, but that'd put us at status quo with me being banal, the site still not being funny enough for INC, and Zseni being yin to Barbie's missing wyang.
Jonsey, if I write the Colts PR department, can I give them your email as a second reference for the site?
Sure, feel free to give them any contact that will help you in this endeavor. If I could, I'd send over a fedora with a little tag that said SCOOP but this week will be very hectic for me.
Questions I'd like to ask members of the Colts:
Tarik Glenn: How did it feel to get tagged with the NFL's worst physique a few years back? Was it particularly motivating?
There's probably a question I could generate for Dwight Freeney, as we both went to Syracuse, but I'm still in shock that he 1) got drafted so high and 2) proved that he should have been drafted higher. Also, my roommate-at-SU's-brother stole Edgerrin James's gloves when the Orange beat Miami 66-13 in 1998. In case the Edge was wondering what happened to them, well, you can now tell him. Careful, however! I understand he clipped his dreads a bit, so he'd be much more difficult to "take down" if you set him off.
But go and have a blast and tell us all about it. I suspect that you'll enjoy the pre-season games a lot more (if you catch them) by seeing the new guys out there in shorts practicing and running their routes and so forth.
