Saw this on Fox's pre game with Jay Glazier. PFT has a blip.

NAPOLIAN JACKED UP A JETS EMPLOYEE
Jay Glazer of FOX reports that Colts president Bill Polian, already under fire for his team's decision to put defensive tackle on the non-football illness list and not pay him, assaulted a Jets employee during last weekend's game at Giants Stadium in New Jersey.
The incident occurred after Polian was upset because speakers were too close to the field. While discussing the matter with a Jets employee, Polian grabbed him by the lapels and threw him against a wall.
The Jets employee was "shaken up" by the exchange, and G.M. Mike Tannenbaum has raised the issue with the league office.
"You should have the right to a safe workplace without worrying that somebody is going to put his hands on you," a Jets source told Glazer.
The issue could prompt more league insiders to speak out regarding Polian, who has a less-than-stellar reputation in some circle. Glazer's report seems to confirm what others have believed for a long time -- that the guy is a bully.
