"Colts Owner Jim Irsay Hospitalized for Severe Respiratory Illness"
Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay is being treated for a severe respiratory illness, leading to his inability to perform with his band later this week. The 64-year-old, who has been a fixture around team headquarters since his father bought the Los Angeles Rams and swapped franchises with the late Carroll Rosenbloom to acquire the Colts, began running the team’s day-to-day operations in 1995 after his father suffered a stroke. The Colts have won one Super Bowl and two AFC titles during Irsay’s tenure.
