We hope you’ve enjoyed your six weeks of radio silence on the Twitter.

Because it’s all going to end at noon tomorrow.

According to Mike Chappell of RTV6 in Indianapolis, that’s the precise time when Colts owner Jim Irsay’s suspension ends, and he can resume his normal activities.

Of course, normal is a relative term when it comes to Irsay and social media, from which he was banned as part of his punishment for a driving while impaired arrest.

Irsay’s daughters Carlie, Casey and Kalen, along with chief operating officer Pete Ward, General Manager Ryan Grigson and vice president and general counsel Dan Emerson have run the place in his absence, wi

Ward, Emerson and the daughters represented the team at this week’s owners meetings.

The league has said Irsay is “subject to ongoing treatment, counseling and testing as determined by medical professionals and the Indiana court.’' When he was sentenced, he was given a year’s probation, which stated he could not consume or possess alcohol.

Tonight’s game against the Texans will be a last test of his willpower to stay off Twitter, however. But come tomorrow, he’s apt to have plenty of material built up.

You’ve been warned.
