Jim Irsay Doesn't Drink and Other Fine Ramblings From the Twitter-ific Indianapolis Colts Owner

I stayed up for a bit after the end of the Sunday Night Football game expecting/hoping to see some Twitter greatness to come from Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay. I got tired of waiting and eventually went to bed. Sure enough while I was brushing my teeth the man went into action.

It was a good little Twitter session for Irsay--and a wee bit educational too!

Normally Irsay has one general mood to his tweets, but this time I think he was all over the place. He started out on the right foot with his first tweet of the night (or early morning hours):

What a Night! Great Video Tribute for #18,as our Fans cheered! Great Win as my Team gave me the VICTORIOUS Game Ball! SWEET! I was Humbled!

Nothing too bad there. Way to pat yourself on the back a littl there Jimbo. In the next one he continued to build on his reputation as the Jerry Jones of the Midwest by taking credit for the work it took to make the team a contender:

As OWNER,Buck stops with U;In 1997 n January 2012,alone n the room,plotting the vision 4 Greatness! Strategically decades of success follows

He was smart enough to give a nod to the fans and some of the team's greats, past ad present:

So much credit 2 BEST FANS,COLTSFANS N to Peyton,MATHIS,Marvin,Reggie,Jeff Sat n now #12Luck,#13 T Y and T Dungy,Chuck P and so MANY others!

But than he had to ruin it by becoming the very same thing he was trying to criticize--twitter trolls.

Thanks 2 many ignorant n mean spirited media types,only some,certaInly not all;Man you helped FIRE UP our team..you were AWESOME! Thank YOU!

Yeah, I think the team was fired up because it wanted to win...but then he brought it back down to Earth by giving credit where it is due:

Prayers and much love for #87 Reggie...let's pray his right knee gets miracle news!!!!!! Love that man and pray for good news!!!!!!

He had to go back to being a troll though, and in the process we learn that he doesn't drink; kind of a surprise when you consider some of his tweets over the years.

Actually working,sorry naysayers..I don't drink...haven't in over 15 years..I know when your unhappy or jealous it's easy to b mean-spirited

How better to wrap it up than by being a Twitter troll once again.

I do pray for you unhappy,shit-slingers...who wants to live on a planet with those who don't like themselves..we want happy,kind people:)

Oh Jim. It's never a dull moment with you.
