‘He’s so white, he could snort himself.’ Fans of white receivers with substance abuse issues fear not, because your poster boy will not be suspended for violating the terms of his drug program. Matt Jones’ agent Dave Butz tells ESPN, “That’s the main message — that Matt will be available to any team looking for a proven receiver.” The secondary message? Being white in the NFL is awesome!

I have discovered a great new band – All of you out there in Twitterland should give The Killers a spin or two. You won’t be sorry.

If Matt Jones wasn’t such an unmitigated disaster, I’m sure a RaFlaWa would ensue in the comments. But this guy sucks too hard for me to care right now. But he showed up to talk to the media in a wife beater so that should tell you everything you need to know.

If Matt Jones was a baseball player his at-bat music would be 311. I’m sure of it.

Oh look, UM’s making a comment on a white athlete’s whiteness. That’s new.

Being white in the NFL is awesome!
Being WHITE is awesome! As long as you’re the right kind of white.

Put him in a green t-shirt and he IS the Emo Iggles fan in the previous post.
Fit = Perfect.
Donovan meet your next #1 (locker room imploding) WR.

If being white is wrong, I don’t want to be white.

MAJ – Is there anything I can do about my whiteness?
May 26th, 2009 at 5:42 pm
It’s compensation for being born with no rhythm. In return for letting black people make fun of them for not being able to dance, they get to do drugs with little to no penalty.
Put a kilt on that guy and he looks kinda like Groundskeeper Willie.

I’m struggling with how “Matt Jones” and “proven receiver” go together
May 26th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
Leave Maj alone. He grew up in Potomac and went to private school, then moved to Georgetown after college. You don’t know about the struggle like he does.

I thought he was playing forward for the Nuggets?!?!?!
May 26th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
“…proven receiver…”
At what, being an addict?
May 26th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Hmmm…. is it just me, or is Matt Jones really the Emo Eagles guy? With the pics next to each other, it’s a giveaway. I want to see these two in the same room!

An available wide receiver with personal issues AND a lack of melanin? It’s like 3 Al Davis wet dreams in one!

If we’re really keeping score, being white is awesome everywhere.

Isn’t that the guy from “The Unit”?
May 27th, 2009 at 12:31 am
Gotta love that Matt Jones… The crack makes em fast!
May 27th, 2009 at 2:11 am
He’s a ‘proven receiver’…proven to be terrible and drug-addled.
No team should want this train wreck of a horrible receiver, but I’m sure some retard team will sign him.
May 27th, 2009 at 2:17 am
….you’re not from here, you don’t know what it’s like…..
May 27th, 2009 at 8:17 am
Can’t believe Cincy hasn’t jumped all over this guy already. Why him, Housh, and Deon Branch are all practically the same player!!

Jones gets a bad rap…he had, what, 65 receptions in 12 games last year during the David Garrard 2009 Regression Tour? Although I do think it’s definitely racism that he didn’t get the same punishment for drinking beer on probation that Marshawn Lynch got for a motherfucking hit-and-run.
May 27th, 2009 at 9:38 am
I’d give Matt Jones a key bump and a smile.
Next stop D.C.

Although I do think it’s definitely racism that he didn’t get the same punishment for drinking beer on probation that Marshawn Lynch got for a motherfucking hit-and-run.
Actually, he did. Marshawn Lynch was not disciplined by the league for the hit and run. He was suspended only after pleading guilty to a concealed weapons charge.

…yet the Minnesota fat boys and Deuce, Grant and Will Smith will get suspended for 4 games…
May 27th, 2009 at 10:46 am
Matt Jones is and will be a “GOD DAMN STAR!!!!”
May 27th, 2009 at 11:29 am
Matt Jones, lofty snorter, true snorter. He defines high.
May 27th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
@Claude balls: Didn’t even realize that. That’s even worse.
I’d chalk it up not to racism but to Goodell being a terrible commissioner who came in with his overcompensating guns blazing and set ridiculous precedents for himself.
