Jim Irsay Is On Twitter Making Guarantees Again
Oh boy. Where's the assistant? Where's the intern? Someone slipped up and left Jim alone with his phone this evening.
I love how he looked at it and said "hmmm I wanna make a guarantee, but one that's at least kind of believable? Who the hell knows how we'll be in five years. We just started this decade FUCK IT! WE'RE GETTING TWO!" You can always tell when Irsay himself is tweeting vs. one of the other higher ups in the Colts organization who mostly handles his Twitter. If you see one about the roof being open or a reminder for a fan day coming up at Lucas Oil - pretty clear its one of his daughters or the PR person or someone along those lines.
Tweets like this? 1000% Jim sitting behind his desk or maybe just getting done benching(?) and firing those off all jacked up. Seeing this makes me believe he is definitely called Andrew Luck and or Peyton Manning at some point today or last night to make himself feel a glimmer of hope after the Colts absolutely choked away a much-needed win on Monday Night Football. He talked to one of his favorite guys, made them kind of an offer to come back and save the franchise for him, they played along, and now he's ready to talk Lombardis again.
I for sure expect the next tweet to only come on Sunday morning before they play the Texans at home guaranteeing...the status of the roof for the early kickoff. Colts PR / the folks who make the day-to-day decisions have to have such anxiety and paranoia knowing at any given time Mr. Irsay can start making guarantees off the cuff. Chris Ballard and Frank Reich are already starting to wear thin on the patience of Colts fans, well guess what? Your owner just made a promise to his fans that at least two Super Bowl titles are coming before the turn of the decade. Good luck.
