I was never going to be a first round pick in the NFL. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 10, 07:40 22
- Bah...the fact that this is even a story is giving it too much attention. - Jim Dec 10, 07:42 21
  - Agreed. Speeding is wrong, and I'm glad he was caught. It won't affect his draft status, or my opinion of him. -- nm - Inigo Dec 10, 07:44 6
    - speeding *that* much, at least. -- nm - znufrii Dec 10, 07:46
    - I am more concerned with risking injury if he crashes at that speed than the draft status. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 10, 07:45 4
      - He is in greater danger every time he takes the field. -- nm - Spawn Dec 10, 07:46 3
        
        but, he has to take the field, because that is where the money is coming from. - groiny Dec 10, 07:47 2
        
        Not yet. The funny thing is, this thread reads like you think he is the only one to do this. - Spawn Dec 10, 07:48 1
        
        I am sure that is true, and they are all stupid. - groiny Dec 10, 07:49
  - yeah, it's not like he was a) drunk b) could hire someone to drive him. Kids to stupid stuff and are usually in a rush -- nm - Beaker Dec 10, 07:44
  - maybe, but I would think you have a huge payday coming up, why risk anything hurting that? - groiny Dec 10, 07:43 12
    - Meh. Most football players are adrenaline rush junkies. If the worest he's doing is going 110 on a road where most average 90.. - Inigo Dec 10, 07:54 7
      - again, I think you misunderstand my issue with him speeding. - groiny Dec 10, 07:56 6
        
        I get it, but I think you misunderstand the mentality of a football player. - Inigo Dec 10, 08:02 5
        
        I sure do know the mentality. And that mentality is wrong. - groiny Dec 10, 08:07
        
        understanding the mentality behind the behavior doesn't make it not bone-headed stupid. -- nm - znufrii Dec 10, 08:04 3
        
        It is stupid, but it's not as easy to just sit at home, and wait for the paycheck as groiny thinks. - Inigo Dec 10, 08:10 1
        
        now, I am certainly NOT saying to sit at home and wait for a paycheck. - groiny Dec 10, 08:13
        
        I agree with znu. (wait. what?!) -- nm - peggy ann mcamanda Dec 10, 08:07
    - I don't get it either. Unless these guys are truly fucking stupid. Look at Von Miller and Aldon Smith. Idiots. -- nm - Shaun Dec 10, 07:46 1
      - at least those guys got their money already. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 10, 07:46
    - By that philosophy he should never even go in a car or airplane. - Spawn Dec 10, 07:44 1
      - for 10 million dollars, I will live is a fuckign bubble. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 10, 07:45
