So yesterday sucked, if you were a fan of Indianapolis teams.
That's putting it kindly.
Let's start with the Pacers:
The trade deadline came and went with no deals made. Rasho, Jack, Daniels and Tinsley, all trade bait...nothing happened. Pacers fans gathered at our beloved Pacers Digest to discuss rumors. The deadline passed and we all just sat there. Some of us called it, figuring with the economy and the current financial situation of the Pacers that nothing would happen, while others were foaming at the mouth wanting to tear Basketball Jesus limb from limb.
Then, just when we thought all the bad Pacers-related news was done for the day, I get a text message from the Pacers informing me that Danny Granger is out 10 days-3 weeks with a partial tendon tear. Alright, this day went from bad to worse. Barring a small miracle, we can kiss our playoff hopes goodbye.
Yet, we weren't done with the cavalcade of horrible news.
Following all of this, I see a thread on the Pacers Digest boards in the Colts section. The title seemed almost unthinkable to me, "Marvin Harrison...CUT". Inside the thread was the story that confirmed it all. I mean, it's not the same as the Colts losing Manning, but this is still huge. We saw it coming. Last season we all had this sixth sense feeling that we were watching Marvin for the last time, but now...we knew. The best receiver the Colts have ever had in Indy was gone, never again to return.
Yesterday sucked, our playoff hopes were dashed, one all-star is out with an injury and one legend is out for good.

And now Dunleavy. This sucks. (Though I personally couldn't care less about Harrison...)
