As speculation mounts on whether Indianapolis Colts star defensive end Dwight Freeney will play Sunday, his probable backup, Raheem Brock, has nonetheless been confident about the Colts' chances in Super Bowl XLIV.

His Twitter followers yesterday got a sense of that bravado when an image appeared on his page showing Hurricane Katrina barreling toward Louisiana with a superimposed image of the Colts' logo with a message that said, "Storm bout to hit miami on sunday! Lol."

A spokesman for the Colts, Craig Kelley, said Brock told him this afternoon that the image was added to Brock's Twitter photo page "without his knowledge."

"The Internet can pose problems to innocent people, and he was not on board with this thing," Kelley said, adding, "If you're going to pump it up, you're going to pump it up. At least you should know the true story."

Kelley said Brock didn't know about the image on his page until a reporter contacted the Colts for comment.

Brock has been with the Colts since 2002. He started eight games this regular season and played in every one of them. In light of Freeney's injury, Brock has never been in the spotlight as much as this week.

If it was on HIS page then it's his resposibility. And its a reponsibility he doesn't seem to be handling well.

I agree. Very tacky of him, even if he wasn't directly responsible. I think the Saints should get revenge!
