Who Would You Throw Under The Bus--October 12, 2008?
Oct 12, 2008 | 9:20PM | report this

What in the world of sports has gotten you so upset that you want to call _____________ out on it? The object of your ire can be a player, coach, team, owner, league, fans, or idea. Here in this forum, you can throw so-and-so under the Bus. (The young lady has the week off tonight) I have a few.

NFL

Washington Redskins: they allowed one of the worst teams in the league to win their FIRST game of the season. And the RAMS were the ROAD team. If you're a playoff team, you don't allow a team like the Rams to come in and do you in your own crib. Totally inexcusable. And the Redskins committed their first turnovers of the season. The Redskins get thrown under the Bus.

Minnesota Vikings: yes, they won, but they had to beat the WORST TEAM in the NFL in the Detroit Lions in the last few seconds of the game! You let a sorry team like the Lions hang around for the whole game and NEARLY WIN? And at home, no less? You should have beat them 34-7 at least. Under the Bus you go!

Oakland Raiders: so much for opening the Tom Cable Era with a ####. More like a whimper. I think the Raiders quit from the time they landed in New Orleans. At least under Kiffin, they played hard. They will NEVER be good until Al Davis passes from the scene. (Even then, he'll be ruling the Raiders from the grave) Al, how do you like your team now? Under the Bus they go!

Adam "Pacman" Jones: the Cowboys' CB gave the team another black eye to deal with when he and his bodyguard got in a fight. Dude, stay down. You're fortunate that the bodyguard is going to fall on the sword for you. But here, you get thrown Under The Bus.

NASCAR

Carl Edwards: even though he and Kevin Harvick made nice after the drivers' meeting prior to the Cup race last night, he gets thrown under the Bus for barging into Harvick's garage stall and spoiling for a fight. A brief scuffle ensued before it was broken up by members of Harvick's Nationwide pit crew.

MLB

Philadelphia Phillies: they've been throwing at Dodgers' hitters with impunity throughout the NLCS. Finally, Hiroki Kuroda took matters into his own hands when he threw a foot above Shane Victorino's head. Obviously, it was in retaliation. After Victorino grounded out, he nearly caused a bench-clearing brawl when he glared and gestured to Kuroda. ManRam wanted a piece of Victorino, but was held back by four Dodgers. Victorino gets thrown Under The Bus for not taking it like a man and nearly causing a brawl. Brett Myers gets thrown under the Bus for throwing behind ManRam in Game 2.

Those are my nominees for the week! Feel free to come in with yours!

ABOUT ME


jon_464
I am from Central California. I am passionate about sports, particularly the NFL and NASCAR. My favorite teams are: Panthers (NFL), Lakers (NBA), Flyers (NHL), and Dodgers (MLB). I am also a Kevin Harvick fan in NASCAR. I am a Fresno State honk. (I'll admit it!) And I am also a fan of MMA. Jackie Robinson to this day represents what is right about baseball. I also enjoy discussing the relevant (and sometimes irrelevant) issues of the day pertaining to sports. I will never understand why televised poker is so popular. Who wants to see a bunch of people sitting around a table, muttering to themselves? I do my best to keep politics out of my sports discussions. That is why I recently created a nonsports blog, cencalscribe.
blogspot.com.
That is where I post my nonsports topics.
