Travis Henry Is Broke, Retarded

Today’s NYT article on Travis Henry’s child support woes is one of the more breathtaking chronicles of idiocy and personal irresponsibility I’ve ever had the pleasure to read. Henry, if you recall, has nine different kids by nine different women. He’s like the black Octomom. Here are the money quotes.

His eldest child was conceived while Henry was in high school, before he was named Mr. Florida Football and a Parade All-American. The child was unplanned as were all but one of his offspring, he said.

One of his children was actually PLANNED? Color me shocked.

Two relationships while he attended the University of Tennessee produced two more children. Attending the annual N.F.L. rookie symposium as a 2001 draft pick of the Buffalo Bills, Henry watched a skit that dramatized the repercussions of imprudent sexual activity. It might as well have been geared toward him.

Henry laughed through the sketch. “I thought, ‘That ain’t ever going to happen to me,’ ” he said.

BUT IT ALREADY HAPPENED TO YOU THREE TIMES.

Henry maintained that he was involved long-term with many of the mothers. Some, he said, told him they were using birth control, and he professed surprise at discovering they became pregnant by him.

I can’t believe a woman I barely know lied to me!

“My counselor asks me, ‘How can you do the same thing over and over?’” he said, unable to provide an answer.

Then he whipped his dick out and asked the reporter if they wanted to have unprotected sex.

“Knock on wood, or something, I’m blessed not to have AIDS. That never crossed my mind.”

Jesus. I mean really, Jesus Christ.

Henry argued that, within the context of richly paid athletes, he was not out of line. He contended that he owned no more than three vehicles at once and figured he had spent $250,000 on jewelry. “That ain’t a lot,” he said.

It ain’t as much as a can of Similac, that’s for sure.

“I have a big heart,” he said.

I just can’t stop fucking people and not worrying about AIDS!

Kessler, his Atlanta lawyer, said Henry could catch up on child support with access to $250,000 that the judge ordered be placed in a trust. Kessler has appealed the ruling.

“Travis is tackling this head-on,” he said…

But falling behind in support, getting arrested for cocaine trafficking, blaming the mothers like so…

Henry voiced no love for the mothers of some of his children. “Everything was cool,” he said before he signed the rich contract with Denver. “Then they were out for blood.”

“I’m trying to get through the storm,” said Henry, who is eager to impart the same advice to N.F.L. rookies that he once ignored. He would tell them, “Don’t ever think it can’t happen to you.”

Yes, NFL rookies. Don’t ever think you could accidentally one day have nine children over the span of a fucking decade.

Travis Henry: Baby Baron.

    In 3 years. you’ll put out similar material but all mentions of “Travis Henry” will be replaced by “Darren McFadden”

  2. marmatard Says:

    You can point to this article as one of the reasons Shanahan was fired.

  3. Jon Says:

    that article reads like a pitch for an 80s sitcom.

  4. jkc Says:

    Hater, you’re right….for whatever reason, Darren McFadden seems like he could be that guy.

  5. Upstate Underdog Says:

    the “terrible people” tag couldn’t be more perfect.

  6. Upstate Underdog Says:

    “Henry maintained that he was involved long-term with many of the mothers.”

    please Mr. Henry, define “long term”

  7. C-Student Says:

    what kind of skanks does he deal with that would purposely get pregnant by him knowing he had so many kids by so many women before them?

    I’m working on a book about his life. Its called “Travis Henry: The Sad Story of a Fertile Idiot and his 10 Trifling-Ass Hoes.”
    Its a childrens book.

  8. Christmas Ape Says:

    “Hi, I’m Troy McClure, you may remember me from other NFL Rookie Symposium skits, such as ‘Slim down, Andre Smith!’ and “DON’T SIGN WITH THE BEARS!’”

  9. Nate Newton's van Says:

    Henry laughed through the sketch. “I thought, ‘That ain’t ever going to happen to me,’ ” he said.

    “Hey kids, come over here….check this whack shit out.”

  10. CoolHwhip Says:

    Dear Travis,

    Don’t be a dummy, cum on her tummy.

  11. Slash Says:

    “Idiocracy” should be listed as a documentary. One day, it will be one. Only I don’t think it’ll take 500 years. 200, tops.

  12. MetalUpUrAss Says:

    Seriously, I really don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole but how many white people does this happen to? How in the world could he have been surprised after like the 6th time!!!! This is why we should take stupid fuckin people, regardless of race, and make em fight against lions, or each other, or both in some kind of gladitorial arena. Who wouldn’t watch that?? I know I’m not alone here.

  13. Animal Mother Says:

    Travis Henry should have someone read him Rae Carruth’s new book:

    Don’t Let Them Lyin’ Bitches Trick You And How You Can Get Even With Their Lyin’ Asses

  14. Animal Mother Says:

    @ UU – Long term meant he stayed the night.

    Condoms are soooooo LAME!

  18. Mo Charlo Says:

    @Metal: “I really don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole…”

    You failed, dog. Did you see the line at the top where Drew says, “he’s like the black octomom”? According to this logic, white people set the standard. And don’t even get me started on Mormon families.

    Careful what you want to have happen to stupid people, friendo. You may be a part of that group.

  19. Hater Says:

    Don’t worry, you don’t sound like a total racist asshole. You just sound semi-quasi-racist, dickbag. Don’t whip out the “I voted for Obama” card either. Fucking moron!

    BTW, I really hope you weren’t asking how many white people have illegitimate kids

  20. Mr. garrison Says:

    Picking up where Metal left off:

    “Can we get rid of all the Mexicans?”

  21. Maury Povich Says:

    Seriously, I really don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole but how many white people does this happen to?

    You never watched my show?

  22. C-Student Says:

    if you start a statement with, “I really don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole,” you’re a fucking total racist asshole.

    there are scumbags of every race. and yes, as hard as it may be to believe, white dudes father, then abandon their multiple children also.

  23. Cheap Shot Altist Says:

    I agree with Anton Chigurh up there “friendo”! Haven’t you ever been to a trailor park?!?!

  24. Young James Says:

    I thought octomom was blackish.

  25. Upstate Underdog Says:

    White athletes have also had kids then abandoned them, but Tom Brady has some catching up to do.

  26. John Whorfin Says:

    You’re all a bunch of bastards as far as I’m concerned

    Metaldude: you forgot to say “With all due respect…”

  27. Upstate Underdog Says:

    @Young James, I read she was Palestinian or something like that. In other words, not white.

  28. IrishCream Says:

    MetalUpUrAss = Bill Simmons?

  29. Upstate Underdog Says:

    In hindsight the $250,000 spent on jewelry could have bought plenty of diapers.

  30. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    I don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole, but naggars are lazy good fer nuthin’ tricksters… wide noses breathin’ up all the white man’s air… White power!

  31. jackin'4beats Says:

    @ MetalUpUrAss: If it’s regardless of race, why the hell are you discerning between white people and black people with this paternity out of wedlock shit? There are plenty of white asshole athletes that slip one by the goalie (Brady, Urlacher to name a couple) but just because it’s not 9 kids doesn’t make it any less wrong.

    Listen Henry is a moron plain and simple, but let’s keep this discussion about what it’s suppposed to be about…torturing and feeding stupid people to ravenous safari animals with the Kill, Kill, Kill music blaring in the background.

  32. NATHAN Says:

    he has 11 kids by 10 woman not 9 with 9. He had twins not to long ago with a different woman

  33. IrishCream Says:

    I don’t wanna sound like a queer or nothin’, but I think Depeche Mode is a sweet band!

  34. John Whorfin Says:

    /hates that ‘bend the facts to fit my petty argument’ turd.

  44. Big Jgke Says:

    @ MetalUpUrAss – Dude i would say the Palin and Spears families ‘force childbirth on our underage children’ philosophy is proof-positive that baby related idiocy is a pan-racial phenomenon

  45. jackin'4beats Says:

    @ Navin: I blame it on Ufford. He didn’t get his whisky-spiked coffee this morning after writing that 400 word bit on the Watchmen and nearly sent a telepathic scud missle over to miamidiesel.

    No seriously, stupid people bring out the worst in people, especially when our bank accounts are at -35% or whatever these days.

  46. TDub Says:

    I don’t wanna sound like a total racist asshole or nothing, but I bet all of Henry’s kids will be top notch dancers.

  47. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    Darren Mcfadden is well on his way. I believe he already has 3 kids with 3 different women. Travis Henry is the gold standard. He’s who I model my life by. I am 1/3 of the way there.

  48. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    “In Alaska, all of them.”

    Don’t forget Montana and the Dakotas. No WAY there’s black people there.

    There might be thanks to Travis Henry

  51. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    How the hell did Sarah Palin get dragged into this? Yes I think a woman raising a large family WITH HER HUSBAND and a teenager and her boyfriend taking responsibility for their actions WITH PLENTY OF PARENTAL SUPPORT is nearly an identical situation to this fucking retard knocking up 10 women then whining about having to pay child support. Great analogy!! Is it asking too much for some of you libtards to at least wait until a relevant time to regurgitate your silly-assed strained politcal name-dropping?!?

  52. Kieth Olberman Says:

    I’d take 10 Travis Henrys over one Palin anyday… don’t you agree that she should be immediately arrested?

  53. TDub Says:

    @Clayton

    Shut. The fuck. Up.

  54. Some Dude Says:

    My dad has three kids from three different women.

    He’s only 1/3 the man Travis Henry is!

  55. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    @ Clayton: I have to agree with you on this.

  56. Hater Says:

    On a side note, Sarah Palin could get it

  57. Boatdrinks Says:

    I actually went down a different mental path. I just talked to a friend an hour ago, who’s son is involved with a girl with a child from a previous relationship. That child is six, and is the oldest of NINE CHILDREN fathered by this jackass that lives here in the Capital region. Apparently, the whole condom concept just doesn’t work for some. And I am guessing that this guying isn’t making NFL coin. He is just an ass.

  58. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    Travis Henry, the modern-day Johnny Appleseed.

  59. Big Daddy Drew Says:

    RAPOFLAWA! EVERYONE HIDE!

  60. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    On a side note, what are these “condoms” you speak of?

  61. sd raven Says:

    now, let’s not bring honest, objective, observations into a discussion with social, politicial and racial implications… we need to maintain a level of blissful ignorance so everyone can live consequence-free regardless of how we handle our major life decisions.

  62. Nate Newton's van Says:

    MetalUpUrAss, quit giving Metallica a bad name. You don’t deserve the handle you’ve given yourself.

  63. Fletch Lives Says:

    Run DMC is definitely following the Travis Henry birth control method. he’s had 3 before the combine last year, and i’m sure he’s workin on a few as we speak…

    at least he’s not on the Shawn Kemp method, where you molest women and get them pregnant before refusing to pay child support.

  64. Upstate Underdog Says:

    Boatdrinks, does this person live in Schenectady, Albany or Troy?

  65. Closed-Captioned Porn Says:

    9 kids in a fucking decade? The Duggars are not impressed.

  66. Fletch Lives Says:

    um, i think you’re on the wrong site…

  67. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    @Clayton Bigsby holt shit, its ann coulters little boy white power + sarah palin defending. I love it. what a fucktard

  69. Stirring shit up Says:

    a teenager and her boyfriend taking responsibility for their actions WITH PLENTY OF PARENTAL SUPPORT

    All that support must have made the breakup easier to bear. At least Gov Palin might be able to help them get their deposits back from the caterers.

  70. Fletch Lives Says:

    throw Elijiah Dukes on this list. apparently he’s divorced a wife with one kid, and then fathered 4 more kids with 4 separate women, 2 of which gave birth 8 days apart! all by the age of 23! this guy is a fucking champ!

  71. Upstate Underdog Says:

    Former NBA player Jason Caffey is no slouch either. He has fathered 10 children with eight different women.

  72. Boatdrinks Says:

    And Schenectady such fine citizens in the Police and School system.

    Ten kids. Wow. Back in the 80s Steve Garvey’s two paternity suits caused a huge scandal.

  76. johndewar Says:

    @Charlie Villaneuvas Eyebrows….RE: Wilt Chamberlain. When I used to blog, I wrote a review of a biography of his and, amazingly, he managed during his prodigous run to not father a single child out of wedlock. That fact was far more amazing that the alleged 20,000 sexual partners figure that he threw out there.

    /please pardon this injection of fact….now go back to the making of dick jokes

  77. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    Oops. Eleven kids. That’s still more than Steve Garvey.

  78. Charlie Villanuevas Eyebrows Says:

    @johndewar. Thanks for that info. I knew the man tagged a lot of tail and I was always curious how he didn’t have at least a platoon of kids chasing him.

  79. John Whorfin Says:

    johndewar

    yeah, people used to enjoy fuckin just for it’s own sake

    now it’s a goddamned career move

    but seriously, Wilt has to be full of shit from both directions on this one

  80. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    The answer to the Wilt Chamberlain thing is simple: he dribbled before he shot.

  81. John Whorfin Says:

    statistically, withdrawal is, what 96% effective if used correctly?

    even if you believe Wilt’s numbers we’re still talking 1,000 kids, give or take

  82. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    I don’t wanna sound like a sensitive pansy who can’t just let it go when someone talks shit about me in a comment thread, but…

    @Quentin; The “white power” bit and the handle “Clayton Bigsby” are both from Chappelle’s show (the black white supremacist)… also, I wasn’t defending Palin’s honor persay, just exposing a completely absurd analogy. Now back to the bipartisan dick jokes!!

  83. KD's185 Says:

    Two more and he’s got himself an offense. If these kids inherit even half the fertility daddy has, he’s going to be fielding an entire NFL team of grandchildren. That’s 40 fucking grandkids if they pump out half as many babies as he did. Hold shit is that a Christmas and a half.

    i don’t want to sound like a pedantic latin nazi but it’s per se

    and you was way too quick to jump in front of the bus to save dumbass sara palin
    exposing a completely absurd analogy in a ksk comment thread? way to pick a needle out of a haystack, homey

    i fuck raw, just like travis henry
    and I bust in the box, too
    but I’m not a millionaire and I don’t fuck dumb greedy bitches
    at least not any dumber and greedier than what you normally expect from a woman

    but you don’t see me coming out on behalf of that fool

  85. TR Says:

    Is it asking too much for some of you libtards to at least wait until a relevant time to regurgitate your silly-assed strained politcal name-dropping?!?

    Yeah, it’s not like stories about Levi Johnston breaking it off with Bristol Palin were all over the news this morning. Hard to believe the Republicans insisted those two were getting married and made them a centerpiece of the campaign, and now it’s all dissolved as bullshit.

    Such a strained comment to bring them into it.

    Three Historical Figures Laid A Lot Of Pipe:

    • Niall of the Nine Hostages. Badass Irish warlord from the Middle Ages who swung a mighty shillelagh with the colleens. If you have any Irish or Scottish blood there’s a strong chance Old Neil is in your DNA.

    • Attila the Hun. Attila means “Little Daddy”. He was a midget poonhound who died while getting down. If your ancestors came from anywhere between Central Asia and Rome, then you might be a descendant of his.

    • Genghis Khan. Shit, we all know about him. A pussy conqueror and absentee dad from Mongolia to Moskow.

  92. Captain Murphy Says:

  99. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    @TR- the “republicans” didn’t make them the centerpiece of shit… once the “leave children out of it” rules were suspended long enough for every media outlet to atack them, what were they supposed to do? Hide it? Disown her? Kill the baby? Forbid her to stay with the clown? Maybe it’s just a family that’s as fucked up as the rest of us and they didn’t have the political clout or know-how yet to just “make it go away”… you know, like John Edwards? (Now THAT would be a better “illegitimate child” analogy from the political world).

    Yes, I still believe it was a strained comment… like if I was to say something completely irrelevant but provocative like “Maybe Henry should’ve taken a cue from Teddy K. and taken those bitches for a little ride on a Chappaquiddick bridge!”, or “With all the raping and fucking Clinton has done, I bet he has some little Billys running around out there, too”… see how irrelevant and stupid that sounds?!? More dick jokes, less politics.

  102. John Whorfin Says:

    clayton the reason it’s so much more fun to drag sarah palin through this muck is that she is the one they brought on the ticket for the purpose of pandering to the religious right moral majority nutbags. that little touch of irony is all we need

    dragging bill clinton through the muck is a waste of effort. we all know he’s a ho, he knows he’s a ho. that’s why that shit ain’t as funny. and of course, Chappaquiddick refers to a time before teh internets, which may possibly all be a fiction

    I mean, what kind of mythical fantasyland was it where you could bang 20,000 women and not have any seven-foot bastards running around? what did he put dragon-spit on his Johnson before entering the fray?

  103. Gino Tourettsa Says:

  105. Clayton Bigsby Says:

  106. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    Yeah, I’ll bet Grace Jones scared off the Big Dipper. Maybe she even scared off Schwarzenegger, too.

    It’s clear he really doesn’t care where it lands. Think about how many girls you’ve slept with and not used a rubber. And how many illegitimate kids you don’t have. Hopefully.

  111. EastEndClam Says:

    Hey Gino, been over to badassoftheweek lately? Sounds like it.

    As far as Travis goes, at least he isn’t impregnating himself with eight kids already having six while still living at M&Ds. Dumb bitch and the docs (lower case on purpose) let her. Jeez.

  112. Conrad Dobler Says:

    Mr. Henry’s reputation as a dumb ass may have preceded him in his relationships with these female paragons of virtue. Considering the probable caliber of female he chooses to romance, no telling who actually fathered these children. They just know the one who thinks $250k of jewelry is no big deal.

  113. Pip Says:

    You know one of those kids is going end up as a big time athlete one day and there will be Chris Connelly story about his relationship with his dead beat dad.

  114. TR Says:

    @TR- the “republicans” didn’t make them the centerpiece of shit…

    I had a link-laden response to that, but I think it broke the internet.

    You’re right, Clayton, the Republicans didn’t make the Bristol-Levi Johnson story the centerpiece of anything, if you disregard (1) the fact that it was Sarah Palin who personally broke the story in a press release before the convention, (2) the fact that John McCain staged a photo-op at the Boston airport where he embraced Bristol and Levi with giant bear hugs like he was their grandpa (all in full view of a carefully arranged press corps on the open tarmac), (3) the fact that the Palin kids were given prime seats on the front row during Palin’s address (unlike McCain’s kids, or Biden’s, or Obama’s), (4) the fact that Palin herself repeatedly talked about them from the stump and during her formal acceptance speech, and (5) the fact that Palin and Bristol followed it all up with cover-story interviews with Us Weekly and other tabloid rags.

    Other than all of that, you’re right, the Republicans did nothing to call attention to the Bristol-Levi relationship. That dastardly media just dragged it out of them.

    Congratulations, numbnuts, you just set a new record for stupidity on the internet.

  115. TR Says:

    And yeah, Teddy Kennedy killed a woman while driving drunk.

    You know who else killed someone while driving drunk? Laura Bush.
    http://www.snopes.com/politics/bush/laura.asp

    Conservatives can’t stop masturbating to the Kennedy incident, even forty years later, and yet liberals rarely talk about Laura Bush. Funny, huh?

  116. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    @ EastEndClam

    I’d never seen badassoftheweek.com before, but I took the bait and checked it out. It wasn’t the gay porn I’d been dreading, but an interesting read. I’ve spent today’s waining work-day hours (I’m on the West Coast) learning about the Viking on Stamford Bridge. Turns out that at one time there were men called Vikings who were badass.

  117. MSP1 Says:

    TR, I’m pretty sure Laura Bush wasn’t drunk and didn’t leave the scene of the accident so her passenger could drown to death. Kennedy is a scum bag, I know Democrats that won’t even defend him.

  121. Midnight Rambler Says:

    @ TR: Please show where in the Snopes story you linked to where it says or implies Laura Bush was intoxicated in the accident described.

    Either you didn’t read the Snopes entry, which makes you an idiot, or you knew Laura Bush was never convicted of drunken driving, which makes you a liar for posting false information, and an idiot for thinking no one would notice.

    Regarding your comparison with Ted Kennedy’s role in the death of Mary Jo Kopechne, I agree: every time Laura Bush ran for the US Senate or the normination of her party for President, the press gave her a pass on her role in a vehicular homicide.

    It’s been over 90 days since the election. Of course Sarah Palin lifted the grace period for her daughter to break up with bastard’s daddy. Long enough to blunt media coverage and not hurt Sarah’s bid for the 2012 ticket (she’ll lose out to Neil Bush anyway.)

  123. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    @ EastEndClam

    If only Voytek The Nazi-Killing Bear had sired 11 cubs and Travis Henry were a mascot for a bunch of Polaks. That ursine family would be one mean, smoking, drinking, killing machine.

  124. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    @TR; I defer to your superior intellect… how could I have made such an embarassing statement? Since we all know that only republicans use underhanded tactics during campaigns and, therefore the dems didn’t in fact dispatch hordes of people to Alaska to dig up dirt on the Palins, it is safe to say that- had the information not been released by Sarah herself- the opposition NEVER would have stooped so low as to use the teen pregnancy of the daughter of a woman who believes in abstinence-only sex education as a smear tactic to tarnish the “rollout” of a fairly unknown politician. There were already rumors running rampant on the internet (and repeated by “reputable” news organizations and publications) that the Governor didn’t actually give birth to her newborn daughter (and that it was actually Bristol’s), but it would be beyond the pale to suggest that anyone in the media would jeopardize their journalistic integrity by running headlines about a minor in order boost ratings/sales. No I think you hit the nail right on the head… those dirty-ass republicans! Let’s take a look at how each of your examples could have been handled better:

    (1) The Governor should have denounced and/or abandoned her daughter and allowed the news to be “discovered” or “uncovered” byothers instead of expressing her love for her daughter despite her mistakes (another option- probably much more palateable to those of you who despise those “religious nutjobs”- would have been to send her to an undisclosed shmershmortion clinic to have a shmershmortion… morals, shmorals, we’re trying to win an election here!) (2) McCain should’ve kicked that bitch in the stomach, or better yet, not even acknowledged her… that would’ve sent a much clearer message,”I chose their mother as a running mate, but fuck her family!” (3) Who cares if noone had ever seen her- or her family- before the stunning announcement of this fairly unknown person to one of the highest offices in the nation… those fucking brats should’ve been in the nosebleeds. (4) Where does this cunt get off talking about her family from the stump? Noone EVER does that!!! Stick to the issues dumbass! (5) The gall of these people… you’re politicians! You would NEVER catch pros like Obama or Clinton on the cover of magazines talking about their families!

    Again, I apologize for being so historically stupid… after all, nobody was making asinine comments before or after this news broke to the effect of “she should be at home taking care of her kids, not running for vice president”, so standing by her daughter in a troubling time may not have been the way to go. Nobody ever would have found out & the day before the biggest speech of her life to that point was easily the most convenient time to make such an announcement… and up to that point the media was objectively covering the election right down the line!

  132. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    @TR; I also agree with you about the whole Teddy K thing… Laura Bush’s accident when she was 17 is nearly identical to Chappaquiddick! How could I have missed that?… & shouldn’t there be a statute of limitations for how long something can be brought up? I mean, it’s been nearly forty years since the man was directly responsible for the death of a human being, fled the scene ensuring their death, then had his daddy and his daddy’s lawyer cover the whole thing up and never faced any charges… get over it people, amirite?!? It’s not like he’s gone on to be a political icon and make decisions that affect our lives on a daily basis or something! That other bitch was responsible for decorating the White House and reading to kids for Christ’s sake… and people NEVER mention the car accident she was in when she was 17?!? THE INJUSTICE!!!

    Anyway… I loved that Henry spent “only” $250,000 on jewelry, and that, according to his lawyer, the exact same amount could catch him up on child support payments! It’s nice to know that he’s “tackling this head on”!!

  135. Facts Says:

    dems didn’t in fact dispatch hordes of people to Alaska to dig up dirt on the Palins

    Never fucking happened. A Republican myth.

    it’s been nearly forty years since the man was directly responsible for the death of a human being, fled the scene ensuring their death

    Bullshit. The man’s a doddering old drunk and probably should be imprisoned or forced to live in a box, but the idea that he “ensured their death” is stupid. Hell, the drunk tub of guts actually tried to swim down and save her. And even if he hadn’t, what was gonna help the situation? The fact that they were miles from any chance of help, of the fact that she was probably gone before he reached the shore?

    Let’s take a look at how each of your examples could have been handled better

    6) Don’t build your entire poltical belief structure, and your entire base of rabid political support, on some bullshit values that your own family can’t actually keep up.

    Can’t we all just have a good laugh at Travis’ expense without the hurtful racial stereotypes? For every black athlete like Travis Henry there are at least ten like Lawrence Phillips.

  140. Clayton Bigsby Says:

    @Facts… check again, the only point I was originally trying to make was that Bristol Palin’s baby is in no way comparable to this fucking jackass knocking up 9 or 10 different women then whining about his burden.

    If you think that democrats made no attempt to dig up dirt on an opponent that caused an immediate, drastic swing in what was beginning to look like a landslide election then I truly feel silly even responding to you- because you may just be the most naive person I’ve ever come across in my life. Then… holymotherfuckingshitballsyougottabekiddingme… you went on to claim that Teddy heroically tried to SAVE Kopechne?!? Next are you gonna tell me that an extremely thorough investigation & autopsy completely exonerated him? C’mon man, grow the fuck up… that’s some serious blind (deaf & dumb too) party loyalty there.

    Which “entire political belief structure” & “bullshit values that your own family can’t actually keep up” are you refering to? You libbies just LOVE to toss the ol’ “hipocrisy” accusation around, don’t you?… as if a failure to live up to a certain standard renders the standard itself obsolete. Okay, so her irresponsible daughter got herself knocked up, therefore, what… it serves as proof that her beliefs were wrong and that noone should ever again resist the undeniable virtue of teenage pre-marital sex? Is that really the way it works? One of her “bullshit values” is also that life begins at conception… wouldn’t it have been MUCH easier on her political career to just encourage her daughter to quietly kill the baby before anyone knew? (THAT would’ve been hipocrisy). See, that’s how it works with these mythical “values”… temptation to abandon them is always present, which makes it even more admirable (to those who share them, at least) when someone lives by them. Maybe you live in Pleasantville, but if I (or most people I know for that matter) was only permitted to maintain beliefs or values that every member of my family aspires to and lives by… I’d be one anarchy-loving mother fucker!

    What is almost as funny as metal’s “this may be racist” is a bunch of rich, liberal, white fools talking about race issues when they have never stepped foot inside an inner city.

    “White people do the same things!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    Do you clowns even have black friends? (Aside from those who took Political Science with you.)

    I could not disagree more with what metal said but you idiots who come out of the woodwork with your self righteous indignation are even worse than him. You speak from a position of absolute zero experience. Fact of the matter is amongst the black community, fathers abandoning their kids is a HUGE problem. Fuck, even your saviour Barack has said things along the same lines. Link me? Fuck you. Read his books.

    Spend some time in areas where people make less than 50k+ you middle management tools. Then your safe, PC opinions will change.

    TOM BRADY HAD A CHILD OUT OF WEDLOCK. THEREFORE, THE PROBLEM EXITS EVERYWHERE.

    It is opinions like those that just perpetuate the problems

    FUCK FACES.

  145. LSUSaint1 Says:

    No no, you know what’s even better, all of you fucking loser dipshits posting all of the stupid bullshit that floats around in your heads that nobody gives a shit about on a fucking website. This isn’t a fucking debate board you worthless, worthless faggots. Wow guy, somebody posted a racist statement and you let him know what’s what, you heroic tough guy you!! And the 40 other people who responded after!!!

    Hey, wow, how many times does, “You are a racist asshole Metal, it happens to all races” need to be posted BEFORE WE GET THE FUCKING POINT!!! I mean, to all the people who attacked that metal dude after th first 20 rip posts, you just had to post something to show you’re a big important cool guy huh, bra? I guess maybe you do, what lives do you have anyway? Really, I will donate $10 dollars and a can of tuna to your families if you all just please drive off a cliff or something.

    If somebody started from the bottom of the comment boards for this site I can guarantee they would not think it’s a football website, they would think it’s a place where queers come together to verbally slap-fight over the internet. Suck a dick and die cunt flaps, but never forget how cool and tough you are because you wouldn’t let that guy get away with that comment , and you have the post to prove it. I’m sure the entire KSK staff is impressed, especially with you serial posters. Don’t worry, I’m sure Drew, Ape, UM or one of the guys will let you blow them one day. Hey, then maybe you can post that.

  146. LSUSaint1 Says:

    Oh yeah, and since this is a FOOTBALL website, just know that Gregg Williams will get the Saint’s defense in the top 15 to go with the #1 offense in the league, and Pierre Thomas will finally give the Saints the TRUE running game they need to balance the offense and get the Saints back to the NFC Championship and maybe the Super Bowl. Save it ‘Skins fans, schemes don’t work everywhere. Oh yeah, and if anybody wants to post some conspiracy theory about the Saints making that run in ‘06 cause it was the first year back in New Orleans after Katrina (ala Patriots in ‘01, post-911), that’s already been done. Fuck off.

    Jesus Christ!! I had no idea this would spawn so much craziness cuz believe it or not I’m not to keyboard savvy and my ? was about why we don’t hear about more of the whiteys who do this ala Tom Brady. Of course white people abandon their children, but ya hardly ever hear about it via newspapers or televised news. I just posted my thing yesterday and went back to work. I didn’t check back til now and DAMN! Looks like I dun F’d up lol. However, anyone who is reading these comments and really getting pissed about things needs to take a look at some of the rongrastname posts cuz isn’t the whole purpose of this site to make fun of the crazy shit and crazier people in the nfl? Oh and anyone who wants to tell me I give Metallica a bad name without ever meeting me or talking music with me is well….. just silly lol. Metallica has one of the biggest fanbases in the fuckin’ world. What? you think all the fans are intelligent, PC, and tolerant? Remember all those “incredibly smart” Metallica fans who destroyed all their Met cds after napster? Those guys don’t give em a bad name at all, especially when they have to take their dumbasses back to the record store to rebuy Master of Puppets. Have you ever been to a Metallica concert. Damn even Travis Henry and Tom from Quincy knows that know one denies this!! All in good fun people, chill out.

    Speaking of which, I liked it better when everybody was piling on that fucking idiot Travis Henry, and all the other fucking idiots who apparently were too busy whacking off on Sex Education Day to learn about this little thing called birth control. The only thing better than being a fuckwad cockbrained dumbshit, is being a self-replicating fuckwad cockbrained dumbshit.
