If an entire city holds its breath, does everything in that city turn purple?
Will the city ultimately “pass out?” (Which I guess would be manifested in power outages, stalled cares, and the like…)
Will bloggers strain to adequately develop forced metaphors instead of getting right to the point?
Well, we’re going to find out, because the entire city of Indianapolis is about to hold its collective breath while it awaits the results of yet another Bob Sanders visit to see Dr. James Andrews.
The Colts’ D has already been killed by injuries this year and we saw during the team’s Super Bowl run a few years ago just how vital Bob Sanders is to their chances.
Of course, Sanders has only been healthy for a couple of games this year and the Colts have been able to shoot out of the gates with an undefeated record. Don’t be fooled though; this team is not making a deep run in January without its superstar strong safety, especially when you consider the guys they’ve already lost on D.
Peyton Manning is incredible, but probably not that incredible.
So Big MB and the rest of the Circle City waits to exhale.
Update: Uh oh. Looks like Colts fans can exhale, but only so they can begin hyperventilating. According to PFT, Bob Sanders needs elbow surgery and will be out indefinitely.
