From what I've read he is only getting a 6 game suspension. What a surprise.

well we know goodell has the owner's backs, since they write his check BUT to be drunk, have coke on you and a suitcase full of money (for what, to meet a guy and buy lolipops?) and plea down to a misdemeanor is mind-blowing in and of itself by our justice system.

 

must be nice to have all the money in the world.

[Tour2ma]

You mean all the money minus $500k...

 

Can't comment on the Indy plea bargain, but 6 games plus a half mil seems reasonable for the league...

What happened to the four felony counts of possession of a controlled substance???

 

If any of you squirrely posters know more of what occurred, post it baby

 

4 felonies for the average drug abuser would get you/us a sentence in the Indiana Department of Corrections

 

I betcha Hamilton County didn't even seize that homo Toyota party boy was driving.

 

Ole boy would be a fun person to party with

Fucking horseshit.

Irsay must of been on a 3 day bindge when he pulled the trigger on Richardson.

It's a crazy world.

 

Say something offensive and you lose your team ownership.

 

Get busted with a controlled substance, no problem. Just forward me a check of a half-million bucks and stay away from the team for 6 weeks.

 

Yikes.

bomb threat, 3 felony gun charges and driving drunk within school district all reduced and sentenced to 11 days in jail.......aldon smith.

 

and yes he was a repeat offender in the nfl. =9 games.

Considering he had enough cash on him to buy a pound or two of blow- That would have been enough to stock an after concert Fleetwood Mac party in their drug heyday.

In your own home, that are your own opinions, in a society that proclaims "free speech"............ Yea right.

[RoyceRolls]

The old phrase "talk is cheap" is seemingly outdated in modern society

Unless there were some criminal charges that only you are aware of, then Sterling's addled ramblings were not a free speech issue.

 

 

Meanwhile back at the thread...

From what I've read, Irsay will get a six game suspension, $500,000 fine, is not allowed near the facility, practices. meetings etc...and is not allowed to have anything to do with Daily football operations, AND is banned from using Social Networking.. I'm thinking about offering Jerry Jones a bottle of Whiskey and asking him for a ride home!

500k is a joke of a fine.

Heard on the radio yesterday morning that someone who makes 45k a year and had the same punishment as Irsay that person's fine would be 15 dollars. Yet players loose 100 times that if you equate the income.

Should have taken away draft picks or super bowl bids.
