Just when it felt like the Fever were starting to gel, two players go down with season-ending injuries.

With Clark's injuries, it feels like this season is just shaping up to be an all-time disappointment.

Appreciate the kind words! Been a privilege to provide some memorable moments in Fort Wayne FC's early history

Whatever happens this season, I hope the Colts can get a definitive answer on whether Anthony Richardson is THE guy or not.

Two days into training camp, the results aren't promising.

This royally sucks. Colbert's wit and humility make The Late Show stand out in an era where late-night talk shows are past their prime.

Only four high major opponents in Xavier's non-conference schedule
- at Iowa
- Charleston Classic x2
- vs Cincinnati

With a ton of new faces and a new head coach, I get the reasoning behind Xavier's non-conference schedule. Still doesn't mean it's not underwhelming.

This might be the low point of the season for the Fever. And there's already been a lot of frustrating moments this summer.

All in favor of getting BIG EAST WBB and the Olympic sports off FloSports. If it means putting a few MBB non-conference games on ESPN+, so be it.

Appreciate everything that Myles has done for the Pacers the last 10 years

The Fever are about to blow another game to a sub-.500 opponent aren't they ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ

A messy start to the season for the Fever is getting messier. Feel like it's almost time to hit the panic button on this season.

Between Purdue's loss in the national title game and the Pacers losing game 7, Indiana sports fans have had a rough stretch of getting the chair pulled out from under them the last 18 months

Oklahoma City is more than deserving to be NBA champions. Just sucks they earned the win against a short-handed Pacers team.

I'm seeing this as the basketball gods punishing a certain network for their sub-par job covering the Finals.

Just an awful ending to a storybook season for the Pacers.

Between the Game 4 collapse and Haliburton's injury, this Finals run is the ultimate "What if" for Pacers fans.

And there's OKC's haymaker to open the second half. Let's see if the Pacers have anything left in the tank.

The Indiana Pacers lost their star point guard to an Achilles injury with an NBA title on the line.

They still lead by 1 at halftime.

Time to finish this for Haliburton, past Pacers and the rest of the Hoosier State.

If there's a team that can handle a devastating loss like this in Game 7, it's the Pacers

Never thought I'd say this, but McConnell needs to play over Haliburton the rest of this game

Timothy John McConnell is single-handedly keeping the Pacers in this game through 3 quarters.

Who had that on their bingo card?

I was taught by some great people in the broadcasting industry to never make it about yourself.

The NBA Countdown panel is making this *analysis* about themselves. Nauseating.

This fourth quarter dud might've cost the Pacers an NBA Championship. What a major missed opportunity.
