2014 NCAA Football Season

[Elephant]

Well, my Seminoles are the defending champs and look solid against a scrappy Oklahoma State squad.

Go Noles!

 

[Elephant]

Well...dumbass Jameis nearly took us out of National Championship contention with his stupidity! swear these kids today are just dumb! Glad to see my alma mater suspend him, but I am not sure if it has any effect. The kid was told not to dress for the game and came up pre-game dressed in pads. Jimbo had to tell him to go back to the dressing room.

 

[MikeSr619]

Serious question : do you think it's an intelligence thing, an arrogance thing, or is it just he doesn't think he's messing up?

Coming out in full pads after being suspended is pretty dumb no matter how you slice it.

 

[Boone]

Well, he's clearly not a rocket scientist. Glad he's not on any team I root for.

 

[MikeSr619]

I'm just trying to figure out why so many dumb moves all happening in a short span.

Stealing crabs
Yelling
Dressing
The assault charges

If I got caught in one of those it would be enough for me to stop and reassess my life choices.

 

[Boone]

Simplest explanation is probably the most likely. And that's that he's dumber than a sack of hammers. Look at what he has to gain and what he has to lose. Dumb.

 

[Goaldeje]

Someone will still take him really, REALLY high in the draft, I can guarantee it.

 

[MikeSr619]

You'd think after Leaf and Russell you could doubt what you just said.....


But at least the idiot who drafts him really high won't pay as much.

 

[Boone]

Going to be a different NFL culture when he's drafted after all the current mess. I think teams are going to be much less inclined to take someone who is perceived to be a problem player.

 

[SC_RedskinsFan]

This guy is feaking clueless. If he wasn't their QB when he walked out on the field dressed I bet the coach would have sat him another game. I hope dallass takes him lol

 

[Elephant]

He's not "dumb"...nor is her the sharpest tool in the shed. It's the breed of athlete who has no consequences...hubris.

 

[Goaldeje]

He has really poor judgment, at best. Poor judgment is indicative of a player who could cause major problems down the road. I wouldn't draft him if you paid me.

 

[McD5]

If espn has their way, this may be the last college game Jameis ever plays.

I've never seen a sports network go after a player so badly before. They're dying to take that kid down for their SEC sports station. It's become Jameis, 24 hours a day.

 

[Goaldeje]

Yes. He has done nothing to merit the negative attention.

 

[McD5]

Yes. He has done nothing to merit the negative attention.

Like Sean Taylor, he's done some things that showed poor judgement, but the way espn reports it is hilarious. It's no secret that they own the SEC network, and that they benefit financially if those games mean something.

It's blatantly obvious at times how badly they want FSU to lose. It's extremely unprofessional, but hysterical at the same time watching them scramble around.

 

[MikeSr619]

Really? You're comparing this kid who has gotten in trouble every way possible to a beloved player who's dead now?

Bro, if you can't see Winston is trouble on all levels that is something you need to look at. But comparing him to Sean is just wrong.

 

[Goaldeje]

The dude is a dumpster fire. Sorry, I know you and Brian love the guy because of your FSU ties, I'm not trying to be a dick. He has tremendous talents and gifts, and a turnip for a brain. He will flash and impress in the pros but ultimately end up unsatisfying because he will make poor decisions on and off the field.

 

[McD5]

That's the thing.....much like Wilbon did with Sean, people have jumped to conclusions without knowing anything.

I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that less than 1% of the population even knows how many men the accused victim slept with the night in question.

The correct answer, according to DNA, is at least three. See? That's never reported. No one even knows that.

Nor do they know that she admitted to an ongoing sexual relationship with Jameis, or that he's the only person out of multiple guys that she's pressing charges against.

He may still be guilty......but it's never reported that way to protect the alleged victim.

 

[McD5]

It's also common knowledge in Tallahassee that the Publix operator is a huge FSU booster, and that many players are allowed to go in frequently and "steal" food items.

There were likely 10-15 other players that week who "stole" steaks or seafood from that Publix.

The employee who reported that crime was a new employee, who was sweeping the aisles. He picked up the phone and dialed the police himself. Not the manager.

That may still be stealing, or permitted stealing, or even a booster violation. But it doesn't get reported like that.

 

[MikeSr619]

Sorry, man. But you're trying too hard to cover up an accused sexual assault and shoplifting because you like the team he is on.

I'm not buying any of it. And even if it was true he should be smarter than to steal when he has a path to the nfl paved in gold. He doesn't deserve to play ball.
