INDIANAPOLIS -- Dallas Clark never took his eyes off the screen as a video tribute played highlights from his time in Indianapolis. The standout tight end retired from the NFL after 11 seasons Wednesday and when he stepped to the podium at the teams practice facility, he could hardly keep his composure. "Obviously you should have showed the video afterward," Clark said after taking a long pause to gather himself. "My wife told me to keep it lighthearted. I just dont know how to do that because this place and these fans and everyone here mean so much to me." He retired as a member of the Colts, the team that drafted him in the first round in 2003. Its the place where he won a Super Bowl with Peyton Manning in 2006 and spent the first nine years of his career. Clark played for Baltimore last season and for Tampa Bay in 2012. He was released by the Colts in 2011 after the team finished 2-14 and missed the playoffs for the first time in 10 years. Clark signed with Indy just long enough to announce his retirement, though Colts owner Jim Irsay wisecracked that there was no signing bonus this time. "Theres a lot more meaning behind it than numbers," he said. "Its really a great moment when you have a chance to have somebody come back to town." Clark is Indys all-time leader in tight end touchdown catches (46) and receptions (427). He finished second in yards receiving (4,887) and 100-yard games (seven). Clark set single season records with the Colts with 100 receptions and 1,106 yards in the 2009 season. In 2007, he had 11 TD catches. The Colts won at least 12 games for seven consecutive seasons and made eight straight playoff appearances leading up to Clarks final season in Indy, before his release and the release of other veterans, including Manning. "You cant write this, you cant make this up," Clark said as he thanked everyone from team doctors and equipment staff, to former Colts coach Tony Dungy and former team President Bill Polian, who drafted him with Indys first-round pick in 2003. "Nothing but love," he said to a crowd that included Reggie Wayne, Robert Mathis and Adam Vinatieri. "For us to go do what we do, theres so many people. Im not going to stand here and think I did it myself because that would be a boldface lie." Wayne was drafted by Indy in 2001 and played alongside Clark each year he was with the Colts. "From day one, he came in with a mission and focused in on it and he locked in on it and within that first year, he came in and made some plays and I knew he was going to be major, major contributor to this offence," Wayne said. "He was that last piece of the puzzle and without Dallas, I dont think we win as many games as we did." Clark got emotional when thanking the teammates hes had throughout his career. "When you have 52 men in the locker room giving everything that they have for one goal, special things happen," he said. "For us, we won like it was like, thats what you do. Until I went to other places, it was like, not everyone gets it. Not everyone can do what we did. Thats the reason why it was so special."

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Mr. Fraser, I think everyone would like to hear your opinion on what sort of suspension Zac Rinaldo should get. His comment after the game of I changed the whole game, man. Who knows what the game would have been like if I didnt do what I did? not only suggests that he doesnt have any remorse for his actions, but perhaps that hes proud of them. Combining that statement with his history and a reasonable person could believe that he intended to cause injury. Certainly his history is very similar to that of Matt Cooke circa 2011, and this hit looks just as dangerous (if not more so) than the one that got Cooke a season-ending suspension then. Would you expect a similar punishment at this point? Joseph in Colorado Joseph: My opinion is that minimal suspensions (one, two or three games) are not a sufficient deterrent for players to avoid making dangerous hits that can, and often do result in injury! The Philadelphia Flyers are a proud but desperate hockey club. They have dug a huge hole for themselves that will be very difficult, if not impossible to overcome this season. But like a proud fighter that is on the ropes and unwilling to go down, the Flyers have plenty of fight left in them. They came out swinging once the fuse was lit after Zac Rinaldo ran Kris Letang from behind into the boards. While I have to question the very poor judgment Rinaldo displayed for making this dangerous hit on Letang he spoke nothing but the truth, that his actions did in fact change the whole complexion of the game. Probably not the most intelligent thing to do either! Rinaldo has been extended the courtesy of an in-person hearing with the Player Safety Committee for any susspension that can exceed five games.dddddddddddd While Rinaldos post-game comments certainly wont help his defence, the length of suspension will be determined based on the circumstance surrounding the hit, the resulting injury to Letang and Rinaldos past history. The evidence that must be considered is that the illegal hit was very late (Letang did not have the puck), Letang was facing the boards in a defenceless position, Rinaldo elevated and left his feet through the illegal hit, the contact was made to the back of Letang and resulted in injury to the Pittsburgh player (Letang did not return to the game). This is boarding and the correct call was made on the ice by the referee to assess a major and game misconduct penalty. Rinaldos fate is now in the hands of the Player Safety Committee but I dont think he has quite entered Matt Cooke circa 2011 territory, although he is certainly moving in that direction. My guess is this incident will fall somewhere in line with Daniel Carcillos recent suspension of six games. The Flyers and Penguins have established an intense modern day rivalry that boiled over in a playoff game in Philadelphia a couple of years ago when Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang engaged in fights with Claude Giroux and Kimmo Timonen during a stoppage in play. This latest incident and game between these two teams has only escalated the hostilities they feel for one another. The next home-and-home meeting between these two teams is on April 1 in Pittsburgh and then back in Philly four days later. Unless Rinaldo is involved in a subsequent incident worthy of suspension prior to those meetings, he will most likely make a statement of sorts in an attempt to change those games as well. Players like Rinaldo, Carcillo, Cooke (circa 2011) and others just see it as their role and responsibility. cheap jerseys cheap jerseys china cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
