    with a 2 stroke penalty for PMS to bring her to a 4. She totally overreacted to
    the situation.

    Yes, the judge totally overreacted.

    She looks kinda pouty, so I was expecting the breakout porno there. :)

    They did say it was not the first time he had done something like that in her courtroom...

    I covered a HS athlete early in my career who had done something stupid (vandalism, resisting arrest, although he didn't really resist arrest, he just ran from the cops... ) and had pled guilty and got a 90-day suspended sentence. I did a story on him and he told me "I didn't do it, but my lawyer told me just to take the suspended sentence so I wouldn't have to go to jail."

    Judge saw the story, sent the kid to jail for 90 days.

    Safe to say his family were not fans of mine... :D

    49ers-Seahawks is going to be such a blast:

    Tebow can be effective in short-yardage and goal line situations.

    They already have a QB who is effective in those situations.

    This judge is an arsehole. A perfect example of an insecure, petty person in a position of power flexing their muscles. Sickening.


    I don't share Stephen A. Smith's condemnation of the slap, I don't think it was a big deal at all... but I think he made a good point when he said Johnson was a black man in court, for headbutting his wife, in font of a female judge. Was I in that position I think I would have went in there thinking that she would be looking for any excuse to send me to jail and I would've stared at the floor and 'yes mam', 'no mam'd until I was outside the courtroom.

    The more I see the Chad Johnson video, the more I think the judge is a vindictive twat.

    She told him he should thank his attorney. What is one way athletes congratulate each other?

    On the dearly departed Tebow thread, someone asked if there was any coach who cares what fans think. Someone else answered Rex Ryan.

    Voila!

    "I'm a hell of a lot better football coach than I'm given credit for," Ryan said Thursday in an interview with Newsday.

    "I don't need the credit," he told the newspaper. "But I can tell you one thing: When it's said and done, they'll look back and say, 'Oh, man, this dude can coach his butt off.' And you know what? It's true. And I'll let the people that know best talk on my behalf about the kind of coach I am.

    "I don't have to brag, even though statistically, I can brag about anything I've ever done defensively."

    That's fine on the field or court. This was a courtroom. He wasn't an athlete in there.

    I cannot believe people are defending that dumbass. You don't slap your attorney's ass in court. Who else has done that; athlete or not? Anyone? Hundreds of athletes appear in court and get handed extended probation periods, like Johnson was about to get. How many of them slapped their lawyers on the ass in celebration?

    Act like a dipshit and that's what you get.
