Richie Incognito, who I thought would run away with the players bracket until Darren Sharper happened.


(Incidentally, can y'all get the "douche vs. evil" argument out of your system right now so it doesn't derail the thread every single round)

You know who needs more nominations? Rick Reilly, for blatantly misquoting his Native American father-in-law to defend the Redskins name, then refusing to retract himself when his father-in-law called him out on it.

Pete Prisco wears jorts and makes blogger basement jokes in the year 2014 so he deserves a nomination on general principle.

Also Lane Kiffin should be in this tournament every year, even after he's long out of football.

And since y'all are nominating division rivals, I'll give an extra gently caress you to Jeff Fisher.

Finally, Golden Tate for ~~~allegedly~~~ loving Russell Wilson's wife and ending his marriage.

I'm not sure there's much to say about Incognito other than that he fulfills literally every "dumb jock" stereotype imaginable. Dumb face, dumb name (who the hell goes by "Richie?" Douchebags, that's who), dumb sense of humor, he ticks every box. That he happens to be a dirty player (and not even that good in the first place) is just the cherry on top of the dumb cake.

Lewan made a hell of a first impression, but I'm not ready to crown him yet until he pays his proper dues. Richie Incognito is a reliable long-time veteran in the douche department and 2013 was his crowning achievement.

Like myself and others have said, Lewan needs more seasoning. He has "Incognito 2.0" written all over him, and a bright future ahead in douchery, but I'd rather wait until he takes actual NFL snaps before he takes up that lofty mantle.

Threatening a rape victim is bad, yes, but at least Lewan isn't an actual rapist (that we know of). What did Richie do? He literally molested a volunteer on a golf course. This wasn't just him on his own time, either, no. This was a loving charity golf event, where you're presumably supposed to be on your best behavior and put on a good face for the community. Richie failed to clear that low, low bar so badly the Dolphins had to pay off the woman so she won't press charges.

Richie acts like a caricature of a bully from a cliched 80s high-school comedy, except he's not in high school, this isn't the 80s, it's not a comedy, and he's not a caricature--he's all too real.

Okay. True or not, I'm sticking by my Smith vote because I'm a homer and the 49ers are buttheads who like to smell their own butts. The Texans are cool with me.

I would laugh my rear end off if the ironic Ward voters carry the day. I know they won't but it would still be funny, and really isn't that what is important in this tournament?

Colin Kaepernick got nominated because "he plays for my rival team." Russell Wilson almost got nominated because "he plays for my rival team and is kinda boring."

Forget 12th Man, "NFC West fans" should've gotten their own category this year.

Roger Goodell. This is his time, he's earned it.

Skip Bayless. Everything wrong with ESPN and "hot take" culture can be summed up in this guy's patented brand of carnival barking. Whether he's genuine or just playing a character is beyond the point, he actively poisons the well of sports discourse.

Mark Emmert Also self-explanatory.

NCAA They will never be worse than FIFA, who handed the World Cup to a literal slave state, but drat do they come close.
