NFL owners for trying to make us believe that they think players like Case Keenum are better than Kaep


Or just the owners of teams who don't want to bring in a QB that could challenge their lovely starter.

They explicitly knelt before the anthem then stood for it. Jerry was very proud of himself and I'm shocked teams aren't forcing that dumb compromise.

Everything that happened after ~May 2017 is eligible for the 2017-18 Douchebag of the Year awards. That said, this thread is not a nomination thread: it's a tracker thread, where we post anything that happens so that we don't forget it next year. So :justpost:


e. also let's remember next year What They Did to Eli. I dunno if it's Macadoo or whoever but someone's being a massive douchebag to the guy.

I had to dig to find out what was wrong with bobby hauck and I'm not very impressed. Some players got preferential treatment from local cops after committing crimes in las vegas, how's that make him bad?

Jameis Winston, not only for all past crimes, but to qualify for this year, I submit the Uber Driver Grope Story

https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/11/17/buccaneers-jameis-winston-investigation-uber-driver

quote:

The driver, a woman identified only as Kate, says she picked up Winston in Scottsdale, Ariz., in the early morning hours of March 13. As they waited in the drive-through lane at a Mexican restaurant, Winston “reached over and he just grabbed my crotch,” the woman told Buzzfeed.

The driver lodged a formal complaint with Uber, writing that “this rider reached over and put his fingers on my crotch.”

“It wasn’t my stomach or my thigh, it was my crotch and I want to be clear about that,” she added.

Technically it happened in March, but the story didn't hit until November, so I think it should count. :colbert:
