Not a single person acts surprised.

Probably painkillers. If he was drinking after that tweet he put up a few months ago, social media will be all over it.

How do you suspend an owner?

How do you suspend an owner?

not sure, but how can you expect the players to follow the rules when the owners dont

[ThunderHorse]

It was probably coke.

He's looked like a hard drug user for some time now.

Very gaunt. At first people thought he was sick.

If it turns out to be a prescription medication, Irsay might get a slap on the wrist from the league office. If it is some type of smoke or powders, then that will be a different thing all together.

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay faces four felony counts after being arrested Sunday night by Carmel police on preliminary charges of driving under the influence and possession of a controlled substance, police said.

Irsay drove at a slow rate of speed, stopped in the roadway and failed to signal a turn before police stopped him, Lt. Joe Bickel of the Carmel Police Department said in a release.

"During the course of the investigation, Irsay subsequently failed several roadside field sobriety tests," Bickel said.

In an inventory of Irsay's vehicle, "multiple prescription drugs were discovered in pill bottles," police said. "These Schedule IV prescription drugs were not associated with any prescription bottles found in the vehicle."

Irsay faces four counts of felony possession of controlled substances.

The NFL commissioner decides specific disciplinary actions, according to league rules.

Policies state:

"Discipline may take the form of fines, suspension, or banishment from the League and may include a probationary period and conditions that must be satisfied prior to or following reinstatement. The specifics of the disciplinary response will be based on the nature of the incident, the actual or threatened risk to the participant and others, any prior or additional misconduct (whether or not criminal charges were filed), and other relevant factors."

Further, policies state:

"Unless the available facts clearly indicate egregious circumstances, significant bodily harm or risk to third parties, or an immediate and substantial risk to the integrity and reputation of the NFL, a first offense generally will not result in discipline until there has been a disposition of the proceeding."

In 2010, Detroit Lions president Tom Lewand was suspended for 30 days and fined $100,000 after pleading guilty to driving while impaired, which league officials called a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy. Lewand also performed community service.

Time to sell the team and move it to LA

Guy had a divorce and is hooked on pills. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

Rx drugs without a prescription almost always means a little jail time.

When our FO guys were getting DUIs seemingly every day last off-season the league stepped in and made the team take action. I'm curious to see if Goodell takes the same hard line stance with one of the guys responsible for signing that giant paycheck of his.
