Tweets of the Week: Colts, Evan Bayh, Mike Epps, and More
By now we’ve all witnessed Colts tackle Anthony Castonzo’s some-kind-of-perfect touchdown dance, which, in the moment, Cris Collinsworth labeled the best thing he’d ever seen. (Really, CC? In no time, we rattled off five better moves, if away from the NFL.)

Former Colts assistant turned interim head coach Bruce Arians has his new team, the Arizona Cardinals, sitting pretty in the nest with a 9-1 record. Even so:
Bruce Arians will always be the Colts' cool uncle who taught us how to make a Manhattan at age 14

Actor Mike Epps, a birthday boy at 44 and buzzworthy in light of his lead turn in a forthcoming Richard Pryor biopic, proved no good-luck charm ahead of the Indianapolis Colts’ 42-20 thrashing suffered at the hands and helmets of the locally detested New England Patriots.

Posted after they beat the Heat (in Miami) and before they topped the Bulls (in Chicago), this Conrad Brunner quip is probably the best description of the Pacers this week, or month, or season:
Seriously, they should hang banner for this #Pacers team this week. It would have to be a quilt, with loose threads everywhere. But still.

Former Indiana governor and U.S. senator Evan Bayh made his early endorsement, to the surprise of no one:
Yesterday I was proud to introduce Indy's next mayor @HogsettForIndy . I've known him thirty years, honored to call him a friend. #WeNeedJoe

Literally, if you’re not listening to Serial, get with the program.
Teaching an @iujournalism class on broadcast journalism this afternoon. Should we just listen to @serial and theorize together?

Now it wouldn’t be the Hoosierland without a spate of tweets about the weather. (We do love our #INwx wheezing, don’t we?)
Great to see that Central Indiana is in February-like don't-clear-snow-from-rear-window mode #inwx

Not gonna lie, we love a good existential tweet.
