I am an alcoholic.   I drank about a 5th of rum or vodka a day for many years.  I quit a few months ago.   It will always be a struggle but you have to have a goal.  Mine is my family and the next mar

I'm thankful so many here have never had to have a loved one with addiction issues.   However,  if you haven't been close to someone with addiction issues,  you really don't know what you're

If the family is asking for privacy, it must be pretty "severe."  He must be very ill.

At his age and health, even common pneumonia could be very serious. 
 

prayers for Jim Irsay.

I think everyone is sick right now. I'm fighting the 'vid' right now and know at least a handful of people who are sick right now with the cold/flu/vid...

 

Let's hope it's something like that and not something long term obviously.

Oddly enough Jim and his band were supposed to be here in Los Angeles this week.  Plenty of commercials touting it. 
 

Obviously the event will be canceled.   I’m sure Jim is getting the best care, but respiratory illnesses are way up and not to be taken lightly.   
 

Wishing him nothing but the best.

Yep, Covid is still making its rounds. Had it back in December and while not as bad the stuff two years ago still no fun for us retired folks.

 

My grilfriend caught it in august, we did not know it for GP did not tested her. It got to her heart at caused serious  heart condition (cardiomiapthia). She spent 3 weeks in hospital, was released for  Christmas, now she is at rehab. She is only 46.

 

So God save Mr. Irsay if it is really COVID!

Could be that or RSV, or the Flu, or pneumonia, or some other virus.  All can be deadly for older folks.  I join those in hoping for a swift recovery.

I am glad she is OK now, hope she feels 100% soon.

 

Do you have free Covid tests? My wife and I always keep about 4 tests around all the time. While it is not perfect, when you have the symptoms, it typically gets it right. I even ordered 4 via the USPS website for free yesterday knowing the things going around with my daughter's friends and their families too. They are typically good for about 6 months after expiration date, they say.

Sure we have COVID tests. GP asked her throughly and thought it wasn't COVID. She did not had typical symptomps though, other than coughing. Later she showed majority of post-COVID symptoms.

I feel somewhat guilty, as I always suspected that it was COVID, but I thought GP knows better.

I am surprised they didn't cross it off the list by getting a test done. Hope she feels better soon.

Sorry to hear that. I hope she recovers well. My sister has had it for nearly 3 weeks now. She is doing better but she feels weak. I got it last July but my symptoms were minimal. Lots of people are getting sick now.

 

Prayers for all the sick, including Mr. Irsay. Hope everyone feels better soon.

I got RSV around November 2023. I am around same age as her, and I have a very bad cough which has not left me since. I have taken steroid puffers, Nasal drops, cough syrups, even Herbal stuff like Cloves, Black pepper and Honey but I feel sometime with herbal stuff specifically Cloves it has mellowed down but after playing little sport or training in gym I started coughing badly as well. Mr Irsay is almost 20+ years than me so I wish him speedy recovery.

Egads, you realize he's only 64 right?  It's not like he's pushing 80. You're right about his health though. He's a very old 64. Several years of prescription drug abuse. Allegedly. I have to add that.

.  It’s a proven medical fact that those 55 and older are more at risk for serious complications of respiratory illnesses. 

 

In the end, I hope he recovers quickly

I have tried several times to post my thoughts about Mr Irsay and his illness.

What keeps blocking my thoughts is what I(We) dealt with during Covid.

I can picture the faces of his family and the stress they are going through.

 

Then, there is Mr Irsay. I can imagine what he is going through and what kind of problems he might be having.


My belief is that he is getting the best care possible from all medical professionals but especially, from his Respiratory Therapists(RTs).

 

Covid 19 kicked our b***s and we also experienced  treating patients with severe pneumonia not caused by Covid 19.

Mr. Irsay has a tough battle ahead of him. My prayers are with him, family, and all Colts fans.

 

Go, RTs!

 

Respectfully,

 

Mighty Blue, RRT

      Food for thought, Nelson

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      If he can have another 1st team All-Pro I think he will make the Hall. That is a big 'IF' though. That would give him 4 1st team All-Pro's and 1 2nd team All-Pro. Not saying he will be 1st ballot, but I think that gets him in 2nd or 3rd ballot. Problem too is, it depends on the success of the team? If the Colts continue to miss the playoffs, many will overlook his play and think other Guards are just better. Joe Namath is in the Hall of Fame because of 1 game = SB 3. He won on the biggest stage as a huge underdog and people remember that. Lynn Swann didn't have Hall of Fame numbers, but all people remember is his 2 amazing catches in SBs played. My point is, Colts need to start winning so Nelson is back in limelight. In 2018 and 2020 we were had good seasons.

      I have watched every Colts game for the last 3 years and I rarely see Nelson "on his back". Maybe in 3 years it has happened 5 or 6 times. Now he has been beat sometimes or pushed backwards but "on his back" is a stretch.

      I don't think he will make it in the HOF based on his current trajectory. I think voters are more apt to let a guy in who started out as average and then became elite rather than a guy who started out as elite and then became average. We always remember the best years of a player and if your 1st 3 were your best years that isn't going to get it done. He is not the same player and not even close to what he started out as . For the 1st 3 years of his career, he was the best guard in football. Damn, they were even putting him up there as maybe one of the best ever. Now, he may not even be a top 10 guard. It has been a huge drop off and I cannot recall a guard ever getting so media attention his 1st 3 years in the league. Now its crickets. I bet it is the qb carousel, injuries,  and not having  a competent LT. I remember people arguing, and I held the opposite view, that we could get by with an average LT because of Q's dominance. The exact opposite seems to have happened and I think it really high lights the importance of the LT and the effect it has on an Oline if that position is not secure.

      Aaron Rodgers Not At Mandtory Mincamp

      That's fair but Mini-Camp isn't that important pretty much like Rich said regarding the outcome of games.
