Much as we've all made fun of this guy, he really has serious problems and it's pretty sad.

Colts owner Jim Irsay was found unresponsive and struggling to breathe before being transported to a hospital by paramedics last month following a suspected overdose, according to a police report obtained by ESPN.
Irsay was found lying in bed and was cold to the touch when emergency personnel reached him on the morning of Dec. 8, according to the report furnished by Carmel, Indiana, police. An officer wrote in the report that Irsay's pulse was "weak and slow."
Radio traffic accessed by ESPN indicated fire rescue personnel were dispatched to Irsay's address around 4:32 a.m. for a report of an "unconscious person."
Irsay received a dose of Narcan -- a medicine used to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose -- from the first police officers on the scene, according to the report, and "responded slightly" before paramedics transported him to a hospital.
Officers noted a number of different medications Irsay had been prescribed but noted it was initially unclear what exact substance he had taken before being found in distress. The specific medications were redacted from the report for privacy reasons.
The incident was first reported by TMZ.com Wednesday morning.
