Inexcusable and baffling loss for the #Colts.
Heads should roll. Unacceptable and, I have to imagine, the final straw to what has been an abysmal tenure for all involved. What an absolute mess.

TOUCHDOWN | Oh my goodness.. Titans block a punt and return it the other way for a TD. Rigoberto Sanchez remained down on the field before walking off. #Colts now trail 20-13 with 10:17 left to play. More booing.

Back home❤️
An Indianapolis native who was killed while working in the armory at a Marine base in California earlier this month is now back home.
Riley Alstatt was returned to Indianapolis this morning with military honors. A Marine was by his side the entire way home.
His mother shared this picture with me.
Alstatt was stationed at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, where he worked as an armorer.
Alstatt died Sept. 10 after an incident inside the armory on base. He was 22 years old.
While his death is still under investigation, his family says they were told it was likely an accident.
The young man was recently married, just learned he was set to become a father and preparing for deployment to Okinawa, Japan this month.
He will be laid to rest at Crown Hill this weekend.

This story just breaks my heart 💔
An Indianapolis native was killed while working in the armory at a Marine base in California earlier this month.
Riley Alstatt was 22.
A fine young man. Disciplined. Building the life he'd worked for.
He just recently married his wife, Anna, and was preparing for his first overseas deployment to Okinawa, Japan, in October.
Alstatt was stationed at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, where he worked as an armorer.
His parents tell me they got every military family’s worst nightmare in the middle of the night Sept. 11.
Two Marines arrived at their door. His parents knew what it meant that they were there.
Alstatt died Sept. 10 after an incident inside the armory on base.
While his death is still under investigation, his family says they were told it was likely an accident.
More than two weeks later, Alstatt's family is still searching for answers.
The Marine Corps has released few details about what exactly happened.
His parent said they have been told Riley's death was not a suicide, but investigators have not yet determined whether the incident was accidental.
In another gut punch, his family says he just learned the week before that his wife was pregnant with their child.
His legacy lives on.
Now, his family is preparing for his body to come back to Indy Thursday. He will be treated with military honors. A marine will escort him the entire way home.
Riley was a Roncolli grad and played lacrosse and football in high school.
His parents want him to be remembered—not for how he died—but for the life he lived.
Caring. Compassionate. Goofy. Loving. Hard working.
Prayers to his entire family.
