Looks like they've heard about Marcus.

This might be my new favorite Markus story:

"His father recalled Markus? first game of tackle football as an eighth-grader. First time he touched the ball, touchdown. Second time, touchdown. Third time, he ran 50 yards but was tackled, leaving him in tears. He thought it should have been a third touchdown."

Winter storm hit Indy early this morning, snow expected early this afternoon, not sure what the attendance will look like in TV but I'm guessing it will be light.

If attendance is light, that plays strongly to our advantage. Hinkle gets real loud real fast.

Regarding the article, zero surprise there was a mention of Howard being 18. But what I really loved is they had a small blurb on Rowsey and absolutely 0 mention of Hauser. I understand why the focus is Markus, but Sam gets no respect from the media. I hope Sam goes off for 30 tonight.

What a millennial. And I really thought we had something special here.

Regardless of final outcome, seems very worthy of a bump right about now...
