The fans are the reason Irsay has his wealth, and the players are able to support themselves playing a game. To suggest that the fans have no cause to offended when a player threatens to hold out, breach his contracts or demands a trade is absurd.

Never said that. As to his wealth, that comes from all NFL fans, the TV revenue.
I dont get offended when players hold out, its there only recourse. They get the shit knocked out themselves and suffer painful injuries as a norm and the average career in the NFL is 3.3 years.

I’m on the players side to get what they can while they can. I believe Jim Irsay is too, to the extent he can under a contract. I dont agree with Taylor tactics this year. Irsay isnt an idiot, he wasnt giving an extension until he passed the physical.
No one is twisting your arm to watch the Colts. If you dont like what you see vote with your feet.
