Are your tired of discussing Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay and his opinions on Peyton Manning yet? What, you’re not? That’s good! Because here’s more about Jim Irsay! Aren’t you so glad the game between the Broncos and Colts isn’t until Sunday?

Colorado Rockies legend Todd Helton is the latest person to chip in his two cents regarding Irsay and Manning. Here’s what Helton thinks of the Indy owner:

"I hope [Manning] steps on their neck and doesn’t let up. That’s what I hope for, especially after that idiot, whatever you call him, spouting off his mouth. Yeah, I have a real problem with that. I think he should shut his mouth personally. It’s getting me a little riled up. I think the guy, (Irsay) just wants to be famous, so he gets one little shot for somebody to know what his name is. To me, that’s just classless. I hope Peyton goes back and steps on their throat (Denver Post)."

Wow, that’s two stepping-on-necks references in one riff. That’s one more than the number of Super Bowls Peyton Manning has won.
