[edit] Comments from former employees

- Robert Irsay was not a stingy man. I worked for Robert Irsay directly for 12 years and for his company another 13 years after he left the company. He was a tough and exciting man to work for but he was generous to those who were hard working and loyal to him. 65.99.136.99 23:18, 1 December 2005 (UTC)Terry O'Connell 65.99.136.99 23:18, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV
I put the NPOV tag on the page mainly because of the section In Defense of Robert Irsay. The section is very POV. The facts in the section can be rewritten to be NPOV.Qutezuce 23:46, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
This is now resolved. Qutezuce 00:06, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "I haven't been in Arizona!"
Anybody have a source of Irsay's drunken tirade at Baltimore Sun reporters as he got off a plane from Phoenix at BWI, claiming he hadn't been in Arizona? - Scooter 18:00, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sources? Quality of article?
Wow, this must be one of the worst-written articles I've seen in a while. Anyone give any thoughts to actually sourcing the inflammatory and biased statements in this piece? Such as:
Thus, many Baltimore Colts fans awoke to the stunning news that they no longer had a football team. Robert Irsay, who had a reputation in the city for being stingy and temperamental to begin with, was further excoriated by the Baltimore press and many fans as a coward and a Judas. Block quote
or
According to associates, Robert Irsay seemed to change with the new environment. He became friendlier and more community-minded, donating to local charities. And even the strained relationship between Irsay and his son, Jim (the former president of the Indianapolis Colts,) seemed to warm a great deal.
