    He looks terrible and has lost alot of weight, probably unhealthy....I knew something was up with him with all .

    He probably won't get alot of flak from fans (if suspended), because he is not one of those "evil,overpaid NFL players."

    I have no idea what would be an appropriate punishment for this guy.

    I don't envy Roger Goodell having to deal with this.

    Probably nothing big, furthermore I wonder if administratively it might have to come from the other owners. It's not like he had one of those Billy Martin press conferences or said Milosevic just went a little too far.

    There are laws against cruel and unusual punishment.

    I heard he took a shot of whiskey for every run by Trent Richardson that went for less than 3 yards.

    It's a miracle he's still alive.

    The Constitution was written by people in different times. They had no way of knowing what kind of misery a guy like Matt Schaub a fan base. So viewing the Constitution as a living, breathing document, one can certainly see how Jefferson et al could justify this ruling.

    Statement from the Colts:

    Yesterday, Jim Irsay took the first step toward regaining good health. He voluntarily checked into a highly-respected health care facility and is committed to undergoing the treatment and care necessary to help him meet his challenges head-on. Jim, the Irsay family, and the Colts organization are all deeply appreciative of the incredible outpouring of support and compassion from our fans and the Indiana community.

    How can a franchise with such a BOOB for an owner constantly be so lucky?

    honestly this story is just sad to me. Since I have multiple family members who have suffered from addiction i have a hard time hearing all these people bash a man for having a slip up... the Driving while intoxicated is a whole other thing but its still more sad than anything.

    If it were someone else, I'd agree, but considering it's Irsey who has history of spouting random ill-informed comments. He probably had it coming.
