Just saw T.O

[Wither]

Anyone who gets paid the amount of money he does forfeits their privacy. Period. IMO. I love me some T.O. no homo but that was a dick move. Just like Tiger Woods, he has 10 million reasons TO sign an autograph.

Oh yeah, right. So, if I was a CEO of a company and I made 120 million a year I would have no privacy either?

cmon man how hard is it to give a fan an autograph. do you think d williams would reject a fan for an autograph at the mall. hell no, just shows you what an ass he is

He might after the 500th person.

T.O. doesn't have an obligation to sign an autograph. If some little child came up to him then maybe he'd be a jerk for not doing it. I would never ask anybody for an autograph outside of an appropriate venue, it's rude to bother somebody in their personal life.

They will never get it so don't even bother wasting your time replying.

Yeah, Tiger stands out there for HOURS on the course signing each and every autograph. He doesn't have to do a damn thing. And though it was just one person (that we know of from the story), TO doesn't have to do a damn thing either. It's just like the guys that run into a Panther in a bar and want to "shoot the breeze". You know how many guys there's been that have wanted to do that? Let them drink their brew and eat their meal. They don't owe you jack. You want an autograph? Goto an autograph session...like the one in the park. I think it's this Tuesday.

So just because of his salary, every time he walks out of his house he owes you attention or an autograph? That is his job now???... He got paid for playing football. His job is not too cater to every fan and their wants 24-7. Just because you play football you don't sacrifice your life. The man wanted to F-ing shop, let him shop.... get off his Nuts.... It would be different if your at a fan day, but the man is in a store.... Go get a life... he owes you and everyone else nothing!!!!! Why do fans feel athletes owe them something??? WTF??

They do owe the fans at least an autograph. The players make their salary from the money the fans dished out to watch them every week, not to mention the extra profit from jersey sales. If at least 1/3 of the fanbase just quit paying attention to the NFL the league would loose a ton of money, which would eventually cause pay cuts and my bet good old stuck up players will start showing more attention to their fans. It doesn't take 3 seconds to sign an autograph. T.O. derives over the media attention, if he'd just shut is ******* mouth put his helmet on and play ball then an most fans wouldn't even know what he looks like. (Unless they're die hard Madden fans)

Are you F-ing serious dude??? He does not owe you or any fan poo!!! That's a grown azz man. Would it be nice.... sure, but it is definitely not OWED to you. People need to stop thinking just because you CHOOSE to spend $$$ on football, that these players in-turn owe these things to you whenever you WANT! They have time and places that are for the fans. Times when the players do give back. But to think that when a man is shopping he is obligated to stop and give you attention??? A Autograph??

You spend $$$ of football because you enjoy the sport. It is entertainment for you. That is what you are paying for.... Not rights to these players whenever you want.

GROW THE FVCK UP!!!!! This is crazy too me.

See, autographs are where being a fan and being a creep starts becoming blurred.

Actually, didn't he say him and his friend asked him? If it was me, it wouldn't matter if it was 10 grown men asking for an autograph. Children and sometimes women () can be exceptions.

[SteveSmithTD89]

You call him a douche because he wouldn't sign your autograph. Grow up.

sarcasm bro. learn to love it. I by no means meant he was a douche (although his attitude and language was pretty rude) Sorry I didnt properly state it. We dont generally get a lot of high profile people here in Louisville except this time of the year. It wasnt just us tho. There were little kids and poo and he was telling them to get back to their moms and learn some manners.

[SteveSmithTD89]

Cool story bro.

You asked for it!

yay lol

[Panthers128]

lol, you're disappointed that the person you stalked didn't do what you asked?

[SteveSmithTD89]

This. full of win right there.

he was looking at one. We sat there and creaped on him while he was doing it. lol. Not the most technoligaly up to date individual out there thats for sure. Did have a lot of questions for the man working. lol. He might have tho.

[SteveSmithTD89]

hmm... as much as i hate T.O., he's still gonna be in the hall of fame one day, and his stats back up the trash he talks. and to pause for an autograph while you're shopping shouldn't be that big of a deal... unless you're as famous as T.O. and would expect a mob of people to rush you as soon as you put your pen on some paper (or whatever memorabilia). which is probably what would have happened, so good for T.O. to say no!

I feels this man. We didnt even see em but my buddy is a pretty big cowboys fan and has always been a T.o supporter. It was his idea. We just went with it. Why not ask for a football players autograph? Still, I see your point. And again, note the "lol" after when i called him a douche. Clear sarcasm guys. Sorry its the internet and we cant all express our emotions and expressions acurately....

[God]

Are u a faggy UK fan if so gtfo my forum.

[SteveSmithTD89]

lol, you're disappointed that the person you stalked didn't do what you asked?

a tad yes, lol. Still, like I said, the excitement of seeing a future hall of famer in my city was exciting, lol. We dont get to many oppurtunities with pro sports players, let alone superstars here. but i get why he didnt.

[SteveSmithTD89]

are u a faggy uk fan if so gtfo my forum.

f**k that poo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bleed red for my f**kin cardinals bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

f**k john wall

f**k demarcus cousins

f**k coach cal

f**k rup arena

and f**k all the retarded bandwagon fans that live in the city of lexington!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pigskinpicker]

yeah I imaging its hard being a famous NFL player, you probably sign a lot for a lot of people, but then when you can't or don't won't too, your suddenly a dick. I know this from experience, not that I'm a famous player, but I did own a company with many commission employees under me at one point.

I would be a nice guy and offer these guys draws against there pay, you know like maybe they had a good sales day on Tuesday and wanted advanced a few bucks to grab some groceries or take there wife out etc... but after awhile people started expecting it, like it was a right and not a privilege. And then of course, I'm a dick for not giving it to them, when maybe I didn't have it on me etc... I think its the same principle.

On another note, the company I owned actually promoted Charity Basketball Games with NFL players (mostly retired raiders, hawks, and niners) at halftime of our games, the players would sit at tables and fans would line up for the autograph session we held, we only had about 20mins top to do this, before the guys needed to be back on the floor to play the second half, unfourtunately we had to cut some fans off at the back of the line, the fans don't understand that we are on a strict time schedule and that the Venues don't mess around on this fact. To them you and the players are jerks, because they paid their money....human nature I suppose

Sorry he didn't sign for you
