NCAA looking into Manziel profiting from autographs

[poindexter]

Jerry Seinfeld was the new Rosa Parks for heckling a heckler at her place of work.

No, he was the new Rosa Parks for drawing a line in the sand on what constitutes "dinner" with Kenny Banya, in exchange for a new Armani suit.

RONNIE: I heard you went down to somebody's office and heckled them?

JERRY: Damn right! We've been lapdogs long enough!

RONNIE: How could you do that? I mean, everybody's talking about it.

JERRY: Yeah well, it's about time one of us drew a line in the sand.

RONNIE: Jerry, you're like Rosa Parks. You opened the door for all of us. I can't wait till the next time someone heckles me.

haha - I didn't remember that Rosa's name was actually used in that episode.

Good pull.

I can't remember anything important, but I can remember things like that.

I'm sure this will get no reaction. Fox Sports' Jen Engel uses the names "Rosa Parks" and "Johnny Manziel" in the same column:

She's got a good point, but the Rosa Parks thing is a real stretch. Johnny Football doesn't have to worry about getting strung up at the nearest streetlamp for accepting autograph money.

Now, if she wanted to compare him to Norma Rae, then by all means.
