Colts Owner Jim Irsay Says Fick Dich, Machtpolitikers!
Scipio broke down the NFL (non) lockout below by bringing the trademark geopolitical and historical framework that made Milwaukee famous.
On a lighter note Jim Irsay has thrown his hat in the ring as lead negotiator. First he wants to work with Jeff - they can get it done.

Jeff Saturday and I could get this thing done,on cocktail napkins,over a long lunch at Rick's Boatyard..it's not that hard!
He hates for it to be too serious but I'm glad to see he differentiates between jeans. And golf clothes.

Everyone's so damn serious,suits,briefcases,lawyers! Let's put on jeans n golf clothes,players/owners remembering we're friends,hang alittle
Like most of us, I want to swing of over to the Jerry Jones compound, hop on Cowboy One and sky up to New England to grab Bob Craft for some drinks, golf and clubbing. Naturally laughs will accompany:

Players/owners have alittle fun time retreat..drinks,laughs,golf,music clubbing..hang out,take the temperature down..find common ground
But when it comes to cutting this Gordian Knot, even Jim has his limits:

He then goes on to quote Big Lebowski and Dylan's Joey.
Last year he gave away Super Bowl tickets on Twitter. This is a Twitter account well worth a follow: @JimIrsay

His dad was a douchebag and fucked over Baltimore, but he seems OK.

For a bit there I was conflating Bob and Jim Irsay and was very confused.
This sounds much more like a guy who inherited his money.

I liked that 30 for 30.
Hey – good for this guy. Anybody trying to loosen up Goodell is ok in my book.

I appreciate his thoughts, but I do have trouble taking seriously a man whose last name sounds like an instance of Pig Latin.
