Irsay’s situation gets much more complicated

Jville · Apr 6, 2014

Irsay is now the biggest problem for the NFL. The commissioner better get out in front of these developments before the spot light is turned on the league.

According to Tim Evans and Mark Alesia of the Indianapolis Star, the arrest came less than three weeks after a woman was found dead of an apparent drug overdose in a townhouse Irsay previously had given to her.

Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman, who made the game-winning interception in last season's NFC Championship game, worries there could be a double standard. Writing on mmqb.com, Sherman contrasted the reaction to Irsay to the treatment star Philadelphia receiver DeSean Jackson received recently after being cut — reportedly for "gang ties," according a media report.

"Commit certain crimes in this league and be a certain color, and you get help, not scorn," Sherman wrote. "Nobody suggested the Colts owner had 'ties' to drug trafficking, even though he was caught driving with controlled substances … and $29,000 in cash to do who-knows-what with."

You gotta think that Peyton Manning is quietly chuckling to himself and whispering something about karma.

Agree. As for Irsay and the NFL, Rog has no choice but to hammer this guy. Time will not make this go away.

Manning has nothing to chuckle about after his SB performance regardless of Irsay.
