Awesome Column.

Robert Griffin III (Baylor): This man is a world-class 400-meter hurdler, but he's not focused on making the Olympic track team and representing our nation in London. He clearly hates America. He is against our core values. I would never, ever accuse RG3 of being a terrorist, nor would I even imply that preposterous hypothetical scenario. That said, what if the Redskins draft him and he blows up FedEx Field in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement? Pass on this guy.

After retreading it I can see the satire but after first glance I thought it was just a bunch of trolling from some rando who happened to have a web page
I've read a couple of his books. He's extremely talented when it comes to music, sports and pop culture.

The sensitivity displayed by bama fans of late. You would swear they lost on Jan 9.

Yeah, LSU folks seem to have become pretty accustomed to ridicule of late.

No, I just find his style of glib hyper-referential comedy to be really really shitty. And the guy acts like his shite is the best thing since sliced bread. I and many others think he's a huge douche. And yes, I've actually read one of his books.

I would explain that evolution works better with more than just a few Gene's in the pool........but i doubt you would understand.


In any event, continue with the gump sensitivity.

Oh well, you think he's a really awesome journalist, I think that's lol. we disagree.

I will say, this article is a perfect example of why he sets off douchechills for so many. I mean, it's pretty awful, mainly because it's a comedy article and it/he is not funny. That's the problem with a lot of his stuff in my view.
