Jim Irsay has been suspended for first six games and fined $500,000 for violating the league’s Personal Conduct Policy.


So for those counting at home

Beat wife -- 2 games
Hookers and blow/DUI -- 6 games
Beat people, do drugs, drink, get stabbed, threaten to blow up an airport -- 9 games
smoke dope -- 365-day ban

Idk if they can recover from losing him for that long. Luck is really going to have to put the team on his back now.

What is the point in suspending an owner?

You cant go and sit in your luxury box for 6 weeks, instead you get to watch it in your mansion, or you can go on vacation.

4 of those games which Irsay is to be suspended will be for wearing an Affliction shirt


Finally, a policy that makes sense.

And it isn't like they are taking away his revenue from those 6 games. The Colts had $65,000,000 in profits last season... Pretty sure $500,000 for an NFL owner worth $1.6 Billion isn't going to hurt to much.

the amount in his body is consistent with second hand smoke.

He exercised poor judgment, but I don't agree with the suspension.

$500,000 is the most Roger can fine an owner without getting approval of the other owners

He's basically paying $500,00 to go on a six-week vacation. Hopefully somewhere exotic. He can pound beers with Matt Prater for four weeks and smoke J's with Josh Gordon for six weeks
