The Matt Irick BlogI am a self loathing Tumblr. My main uses for this blog are “following” my real life friends (minority), and looking at pictures of internet savvy girls I find attractive (vast majority). Every once in a while I post things as well… My hobbies include taking stock options, being thanked after sex, and having my asshole friends write quotes saying what my hobbies include.

Directed by Academy Award Winner Barry Levinson. The complex story of troubled owner Robert Irsay’s decision to move the Colts from Baltimore to Indianapolis. Told from the perspective of members of the Baltimore Colts Marching Band, who, despite losing their team, continued to “march” for more than a decade after that fateful bolt in the night. To say the least, it was despicable what the late Mr. Irsay did to his family, city, and fan base. But this sordid flurry of events lead to the sports love of my life being placed in Indianapolis shorty before my birth there. Few franchises have perfect pasts. But I can proudly say that the Indianapolis Colts are, without question, one of the most stable, honorable, and successful franchises in all of sports now. Not to mention 5-0. </p>http://mattirick.tumblr.com/post/212070085http://mattirick.tumblr.com/post/212070085Tue, 13 Oct 2009 12:28:13 -0400<img src="http://17.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kquqpkA2Az1qz5s0bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://livejamie.com/post/201978716/free-mercury-playoff-tickets-for-tonight" target="_blank">livejamie</a>:</p> <blockquote>Free Mercury playoff tickets for tonight. @saynomorgan and I are PUMPED!!!1</blockquote> <p>What a joke.  For game one of the<i> </i>league finals, Pheonix General Manager Steve Kerr offered 7000 free tickets open to the public….
