The story doesn't say when the owners meetings are in May,  only that Irsay plans to be in attendance.

 

The story notes it's not clear if Irsay is still in rehab or is now out of a facility.

 

But, it's been roughly 45 days,  so I'm sure we all hope he's doing well....

Is this the right decision?  

 

I really think he should stay in the background for a while, and let his daughters take care of business.

Yeah, he could really get his keester roasted not only by the media, but the owners/NFL too.

He has to face the music at some point

 

True but let the commish decide that.  Keep a low profile until it all blows over.

 

He might not get any punishment.  I read an article that says he still hasn't been formally charged with anything.

He should be fine.

 

The owners and the league won't do anything there.   They'll leave it up to Goodell and he's already said he'll wait until the legal process plays itself out.    In other words,  the league won't take up the matter with him for quite a while.

 

The media will either be shielded from Irsay,  or if they get some access, I think they'll be mostly respectful.    They won't hound him.    They're not TMZ.

I doubt very seriously that 1) the Colts/Irsay would do this without the blessing of Goodell; and 2) there haven't been ongoing discussions of some sort between Goodell and the Colts about the situation. Not to say that Irsay won't be under scrutiny, but let's be honest--NFL owners are a "boys club" and they aren't about to throw each other under the bus for behavior such as Irsay's. Even with the Sterling situation, NBA owners were hesitant to speak out until after the commish handed down the punishment (and not all even did at that point).  There are no issues with the Colts having sponsors pulled in mass due to Irsay's behavior, and thus the bottom line isn't being impact, which is really all the owners care about. It will be fine. I agree he'll be approached by the media, and will choose to answer tough questions or not respond at all. That's where the major scrutiny will come from at this point.

Good to see he's coming back. He's making progress, but his battle isn't over, and it most likely will never be. He'll always have that option (and it's unfortunate).

 

Either way, hope he can be 100% at every game next season.

      Colts OTAs Thread May 21st-23rd; May 29th-31st

      Heard Kevin Bowen and James Boyd on the radio saying Pierce was working with special teams if you and wondering how the WR2 battle is going early.

      AD Mitchell Not Signed

      By ADnum1 · Posted

      I'm a huge Georgia fan and let me tell you that he was loved and adored by the fanbase, the players and the coaches.   There was never any word of AD having a bad attitude or being a me first player.  I can tell you that is complete nonsense.   Kirby Smart (the HC at Georgia) runs a very tight ship.  He wants team players first.  He always emphasizes T-E-A-M.  Players with bad attitudes are left on the bench or better hit the transfer portal.  In fact, he often starts the 3 star or 4 star player over the 5 star player if they give more effort and hustle.   AD was instrumental in helping Georgia win back to back National Championships and when he wanted to transfer, he told us he wanted to be closer to his daughter in Texas.  So Georgia fans gave him their blessing.  Trust me when I tell you we are not always that gracious.   He is a big time player that makes big plays in the most critical moments in the game.  I already posted the Ohio State game where he made the game winning catch eliminating Ohio State.  That was the CJ Stroud big scramble at the end game.   But one of the biggest plays in Georgia history was the 2021 National Championship game.  Georgia was on their way to losing 8 straight times to Alabama.  For whatever reason Alabama was the hump that Georgia could not get over.   Then with 8:15 left in the game with dejected Georgia fans facing sure defeat at the hands of Alabama again, Stetson Bennett throws a 50 yard bomb to AD Mitchell.    Look at the way he tracks the ball.  The ball was slightly underthrown, so AD had to come back for it.  Then after AD catches it the Alabama DB tries to rip the ball away on the ground, but AD held on !!!  This is a legendary moment in Georgia Football !

      Mark Gastineau might have something to say about that, lol!  I agree with all of the above as it was frustrating at times.

      2024 NBA, Pacers and all NBA talk

      The site I go through (I am not allowed to mention in here because of Forum rules even though legal of course) is Boston is a -225 to win the series. So, to answer your question, it is for all marbles, not just 1 game. I knew Boston would be favored but I was thinking more on the lines of -100 to maybe -130 at most. Boston is a tad deeper and they have HCA is why I understand them being favored but at -225, I can't pass on that. Luka Doncic has the been the best player period during the playoffs and on any list he is a top 5 player with Joker and Giannis factored in. This will be the 1st series that Tatum has played in where he isn't the best player. IMO, Brown just is great as Tatum is, he has proved that time and time again every year during the playoffs. No one player can stop Irving from scoring either. Where Dallas is being overlooked by the media and Boston fans is, their Big's are more physical than Boston's in Lively and Gafford where the Pacers were a finesse team. To beat Boston, you have to get physical. Pj Washington can match anything Al Horford does as well from 3. Dallas has played great defense the whole playoffs, I have watched them close. I also think Kidd is the better coach.   Look at the path that Dallas had to take to get to the Finals compared to Boston's path. Best team Boston beat was our Pacers and 3 of those games could have gone either way, also Haliburton was out in Games 3 and 4. Boston beat Miami and Cleveland, arguably the 2 worse teams in the playoffs. Dallas beat a talented Clippers team, beat #1 seeded OKC without HCA, and just beat Minnesota without HCA who beat Denver.
