Racist, sexist, homophobic comments.
Don't forget xenophobic. Give Rocker credit for alienating pretty much everyone, not just those with different skin color. He was truly an artist.

The Steelers are slowly becoming the Bengals.
And vice-versa, if last year is any indication. That'd be OK by me. Except with a quarterback with some class.
You can have our 20 years of frustration; we'll take six rings.

'Why should I get this kid from the South Side of Chicago and have Scott Boras represent him and pay him $5 million when you can get a Dominican guy for a bag of chips?'
It just seems to me that Hunter is completely unclear on the concept of major league baseball and the free market. If David Ortiz (purely by way of example) is playing DH for a certain team, Hunter seems to think that (a) there is an African-American player of similar skills; and (b) that player wanted more money than Ortiz. So there's vast reserves of untapped inner-city talent just sitting there wasted because they want too much money? Hmmm.

Spoiled brat? Nah. Cheap ass mo'fo? HELL YEA!!
Cheap ass mofo's don't tip. Little (or great big) pricks act like spoiled brat douchebags when they demand that hard working bartenders put their jobs at risk by comping them hundreds of dollars in drinks. When those bartenders who make minimum wage bend over backwards to make sure Johnny Footballhero is accommodated, are rewarded by getting stiffed by a man who makes $7.7 million* to play a game (because they expected him to pay for numerous rounds of drinks he bought for everyone in the bar), then the word asshole comes into play. Along with just about any other that comes to mind.

he would have been first in line to cram into his pockets whatever money Snyder was handing out.
What's he basing that assertion on?

Why? Because Roethlisberger didn't get an extra order of nachos or leave a healthy tip?
Not that it's particularly germane to the issue at hand, but I've spoken to a couple of bartenders in Oxford (home of Miami U) with similar stories. They said that, on a similar-sounding pub crawl around Oxford after the '05 Super Bowl Roethlisberger acted like a complete asshole. He and his posse refused to pay cover charges (fairly understandable), ran up huge tabs which he demanded discounts on, and when he didn't get them, stiffed the bartenders. That doesn't make him a rapist by any stretch of the imagination, but it sure indicates that he is a spoiled brat.

Bullshit...you were reaching around desperately for your telephone. It's a vicious cycle, if you were in a Snuggie, you'd be able to more efficiently order a doggie Snuggie.

and I don't cheer for him, am I really a socialist?
Of the worst kind. Joker face-paint, swastika, and everything. And I'll be organizing a march on Augusta with poorly-spelled signs that say so. They'll read "dviking, your a wellfair getting commy if you don't chear for Tigger."

You mean they'll still play 4 majors, even without Tiger? Ain't that the damndest thing.
Furthermore, irunfromclones, not caring about Tiger is un-American. I suppose you'd be happier if four different players won the majors each year. Cheer for Tiger or you're a socialist.

- For some reason it's a big deal when your hockey teams of Canadians, Europeans, and Americans beat our hockey teams of Canadians, Europeans, and Americans in the Stanley Cup playoffs.
I've always found that hysterical. Especially when the winning team is from the sun belt. And it's in the finals. Tee Hee.

Attorney: Pa. officers with Roethlisberger at club
For some reason I just can't shake the image of Matthew McConaughey in Dazed and Confused saying "That's what I like about high school girls-I keep gettin older and they stay the same age."
No matter what, it might be time to quit chasing tail at college bars, where binge drinking is the norm. Nothing good can come of placing a rich, famous athlete in that environment.
