Yup and I hope they're Hoosiers.
Id bet a pretty large percentage of those Hoosiers fans are also Colts fans. They aren't gonna be trekking to Vegas to do all that

Home field advantage hasn't mattered to this team for 25ish years
Nothing has really mattered. The times were so desperate that Lane Kiffin trotted them out wearing the white laundry at home. Maybe/probably he did that just to piss Al off.

i met a few indy folks in vegas last yr, not for the football games just the gambling,drinking,food and entertainment
I wasn't a fan of the Cousins signing. Sill on the fence.
But it's pretty cool to see he is actually having some fun with the team. He actually seems to be embracing his role here.
Most everyone would agree that you can't be good at much of anything, especially your job if you aren't having some fun.
That being said, it's easy to have fun and be happy at your job knowing you are being paid $20mil no matter what you do.
He knows he has no future here unless he somehow summons the ghosts of Raiders past and does the impossible.
Regardless, it's good to see that both Cousins and Mendoza are having fun with this. Maybe, just maybe we are actually building a team rather than a group of guys playing football together.

Liking the Cousins acquisition more each day. He knows he’s destined for the bench yet he’s having fun with the guy who’s taking his job.
