I KNOW THIS WILL GET THUMBS DOWN, BUT SPELLING FAIL FROM ESPN @ :10, IT SAYS "BELONINGS" IT SHOULD BE "BELONGINGS"

@Fanik10 I don't mean to be a hater, but picking on a drunk who is long gone seems to be foolish. I know Jim also fought demons but he has never acted like that. Different time and league when Old Irsay was owner, shit he'd be so torched by the media after 1 of those drunken tirades nowdays w/ the info flow that he'd be forced to resign and/or Goodell would fine him a Million or two!

Robert Irsay got his personnel & financial gain from embezzling and swindling from his own parents! He bought the LA Rams in 1971 only to make an even trade in 1972 for Carrol Rosenblums Superbowl champ Colts.Rosenblum, saw the potential of So Cal real estate. Irsay would go on to dismember and train wreck the Colt franchise! Like father ,like son! The Irsays are nothing more than money hungry Biotches!

Jimmy all of us Hoosiers thank u 4 the trip to Indy....I hope it wasn't 2 bad, u know we enjoyed the 2 SB's & all that! Now maybe the Medicine Shop's & other places have made u stronger n the long-run...Regardless let's keep Peyton since he did create the last decade! FYI if you release him to Miami or whomever & they make the Playoffs/'SB while you draft a "ryan leaf" (LUCK) & the Colts suffer, well you know how history will think of you....

@MegaJustGeorge I absolutely don't believe in hell, same goes for heaven (but I do believe in ghosts, witches, and goblins)....He did say he was Catholic, I mean why would you question any religious folk???? HAHAHAHAHA, did he blow you like many priests?

As an INDY Colts fan and someone who has encountered the Irsay family on many occasions I feel bad shit boils down to this 1 press conference. I've enjoyed a drink or two in my days & it's easy to see the dude was torched (Arizoa). Clearly liquid courage doesn't always bring out the best! It's a shame your biography can be written on so few words (In a lifetime) but that's how it goes when in the spotlight. Too bad he wasn't here for the RING in '07!!!!

@Fanik10 Well my man you're asking a question that is pretty absurd. Of course Irsay had his demons, but I also doubt 99% of CEO's and wealthy businessman can compare to Robert Kraft. That dude understands philanthropy and doesn't seem to be a greedy SOB. How do you compare to Darwin or Einstein (not jesus since that's a fraud)....So do you measure up ehh???

[Fanik10]

You think Mr. Kraft would act like this?

[MegaJustGeorge]

I hope this evil person, Robert Irsay, rots in Hell - and I say that in regard to what he did to the people of Baltimore by his taking the Colts away.

@cokeworthy I think he may be referring to Irsay.
