Way to go
Sanchez was accused of rape too while at USC....so the Steelers aren't quite as unique as you'd like to think.

Man, I don't know. After you posted this on some of the message boards there were a lot of Steeler fans crying "religion" regarding his comments. Now I don't imagine that would be anyone from this site but ignorant just the same.

Kind of like how from a brief glimpse of the Choo thread, I saw at least two posters taking a "no big deal; shit happens" attitude with one of them trying to bring up Ohio's strict .08 breath test as an excuse even though he blew .201 (which seems more in line with where I was last Saturday at a party after my dumb ass thought it'd be a good idea to enter a shot-taking contest with the 21-year-old son of the host...when that was done with, I was having too much trouble walking to think about driving).
Dumbasses are dumbasses, but as long as they have a reputation for getting shit done on the field, people will excuse them. Some sooner than others.

Yeah I SMH at that, when you're in the public eye like that, and kids look up to you, deserved or not, you have to make better choices. Plus most clubs have numbers to call for a pick up/you're a FUCKING millionare. Call a damn cab. There is no excuse for it.

you do realize the term "towel head" is derogatory to the whole Muslim community, and not just followers of Osama, right?

As someone on the PFT responses said..."he could use the 'my 3 year old nephew posted on my Twitter' excuse....and considering the content he posted, people would probably believe him."

after reading his full set of tweets...it didnt seem as bad as just the few they put in the article which is probably why they left them out of most articles. IMO

I appreciate his response, although the tweets were still retarded. Time to move on.

Apology sounded sincere. I understand his beliefs on the "eye for an eye" thing. But how can you say we've only heard one side? There is no other side to slaughtering thousands of innocent people. That's the part that I don't get.

Running backs should be seen and not heard. This is confirmed every time Emmitt Smith opens his pie hole.

At least Emmitt is good for COMEDIC value. Whenever you're having a bad day, go here (http://walterfootball.com/emmitt.php) and laugh your ass off.

That was what prompted me to throw out his name. His mock drafts are epic.

if he would have just stopped at initial tweet of "who celebrates death" or something like that, it wouldn't have been so bad. it's still controversial but it's not being a ratard. the stuff about hearing bin laden's side and wondering how a plane could take down a building is the point where people started getting pissed at him

I never realized before that there are links to TWO MORE Encyclopedias of Emmitt botching the English language. This has turned into an Epic Win day for me!
To tie it all together:
"And also try to use some play-action if they can... Rashaa... with Rashaan Mendenhall runnin the rock." (Commentary: Poor Mike Tomlin. He tried following Emmitt's advice, but couldn't find anyone named Rashaan Mendenhall on his roster.)
