Rob Bironas is coming out of nowhere for how douchey he was before dying:quote:Two Belmont students say former Titans kicker Rob Bironas threatened to kill them and sideswipe the truck they were in before confronting a man and woman in another car and trying to run their vehicle off the road Saturday night. Minutes later, Bironas lost control of his SUV and died in a one-car crash. Can he be post-posthumously nominated?

Hey may have acted the douche but he only hurt himself, and he hurt himself as much as life allows. Unless we find out this was regular behavior I say no. How does Lane Kiffin keep finding work is what I want to know.

Being a kicker, I doubt it was CTE, but something was wrong with that guy. VVV That's what I'm saying, he was definitely going through something mentally, unless he's been the worlds most fortunate aggressive drunk for the last 15 years.

I'd rather keep Bironas out of this. While I agree that road rage (especially on that level) is douchebag as gently caress, this thing is supposed to be fun to at least some degree. I don't see the fun here when it comes to a guy who seems to have had some kind of really bad episode and ended up dead.Chilichimp posted:Being a kicker, I doubt it was CTE, but something was wrong with that guy.

The Ravens owner had a pretty douchy press conference, throwing Ray Rice and Goodell under the bus and contradicting himself a lot. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11570685/baltimore-ravens-owner-steve-bisciotti-says-espn-ray-rice-report-manufactured-rice-camp James Harrison un-retires after 3 weeks to rejoin the Steelers. Low-level Brett Farve douchey so far but could lead to more headhunting? He also hit his g/f in 2008, who knows if there was more? http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11574299/james-harrison-signs-deal-return-pittsburgh-steelers

Raku posted:That doesn't sound like anything any other coach would do differently. If you're cleared by the team doctor, they expect you to play, and I don't see anything about the player not wanting to play either. Sending someone out to play when they've been incorrectly cleared is one thing. Allegedly attempting to retract their scholarship after the player is seriously impaired after playing when they shouldn't have is something else entirely. It's the same thing as sending a freshly concussed NFL player back out onto the field and then completely cutting them from the team when they get paralyzed on the next play.

He was a fifth year senior. It wasn't the football program trying to take away his scholarship. EDIT: although I guess they were still sanctioned so they could have been trying to give it to another already-active player instead of a recruit.

Chilichimp posted:Lets say cathartic. Ok yeah, cathartic is a better word. And again yeah, Bironas died and didn't hurt anyone else. Even though he apparently tried to. I don't know, I just don't see the point in putting him in this. Other bigger douches that are still alive would knock him out of round 1 anyway. The bigger question is where do we stand on Adrian Peterson. He is indicted and may still eventually serve jail time, but do we call him a douche? I think he's a douche.

After some thought - yeah, Bironas kind of would be weird. On the flip side, since Art Modell is in the HoF, Steve Bisciotti just seems like a perfect follow up with how awful the Ravens have handled the Ray Rice incident.

I'd just rather mock people who are still alive and can be a target of our mockery indefinitely. You know, like child beaters and wife beaters and all around lovely people and the NCAA and that loving rear end in a top hat who for some insane reason actually has a job as Arkansas head coach, you know, where there's been a TRAIN WRECK OF loving ASSHOLES FOR YEARS and... ugh, seriously let's just talk about douchebags ok?

Brady Hoke!!!!!!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBTgaFd2Y_I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY3IlUR3jwY (via MGoBlog) Hoke's quotes from MLive and more MLive quote:I don't know if he had a concussion or not, I don't know that. Shane's a pretty competitive, tough kid. And Shane wanted to be the quarterback, and so, believe me, if he didn't want to be he would've come to the sideline or stayed down. The athletic department's statememnt is even better (via a really great Maize n Brew post) quote:The safety of our student-athletes is always our top priority. We generally never discuss the specifics of a student-athlete’s medical care, but Shane Morris was removed from yesterday’s game against Minnesota after further aggravating an injury to his leg that he sustained earlier in the contest. He was evaluated by our experienced athletic trainers and team physicians, and we’re confident proper medical decisions were made.

This clip is a bit longer and shows that the announcers were making GBS threads on Hoke for leaving Morris in with a leg injury even before the helmet-to-helmet hit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1mIcYz-DM8

Another point in his favor is that his name is loving Jimbo. What is it with college coaches and names that sound like King of the Hill characters? Jimbo, Tommy Tuberville, Dabo Swinney, Larry Fedora, Urban Meyer, Bo Pelini, Butch Jones, etc.
