A Show of Character

Colts’ quarterback Andrew Luck announced his retirement at age 29 during the Colts-Bears’ exhibition game on Saturday.  When it went public, boos could be heard directed Luck’s way from fans at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.  Talk about class.

I’d like to think baseball fans are different and don’t operate on the belief athletes should disregard issues of health so as to further public amusement.  Maybe baseball fans are better than that, maybe not; Phillies’ and Yankees’ fans do give one pause.  In any case, a pox on Indianapolis.
