This is why you're broke (Vince Young)


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Wow...amazing how the insults rain down endlessly on VY and Jamarcus Russel. Yet when Ryan Leaf finally went to jail after the millionth time of fugging up, not much insult was thrown his way. As a matter of fact, the thread barely went to two pages. Gee I wonder why it's so much easier to trash those two QBs and their issues and not Ryan? A man who literally threw away his career, money, and life on drugs and showing the world that he enjoys being irresponsible by blaming the world for his issues.

Everything that folks are mocking Jamarcus and Vince for happened in the past. How old is Ryan Leaf and he's still fugging up and no one is mocking him for it?

Amazing how easy it is to mock other people's kids and not out own. Just saying.

Hey we all make mistakes in life, I hope the guy truely gets himself on track.

It's possible, but I wouldn't bet on it.

As you probably know, there are some people in the world who "just don't get it" (and likely never will). Four of said folk have been mentioned in this thread: Vince Young, Titus Young, JaMarcus Russell and Ryan Leaf.

Each one had the unfortunate combo of world class physical talent in their bodies but faulty wiring upstairs. Whether it was inability to control their emotions, poor work ethic, just plain immaturity or whatever, they just didn't have what it takes. I could also throw in Jeff George as another prime example in that same mold.

Some guys just never grow up, and it's always a shame. When that much talent has such great opportunity and for whatever reason it all winds up going to waste, it's tragic.

Sadly, it's also fairly common.

So why are we bring up the Wonderlic again and using it to mock what Vince Young did at a young age?

As I said, amazing when Ryan Leaf finally went to jail after getting away his irresponsible behavior for the umpteenth time, not much mocking was taking place. No one questioned his intelligence nor made fun of his past. As a matter of fact, not much was made of it. Hmmmm

Funny that VY and JR gets mentioned folks run to the silly media created images created for them. U know the typical racial stereotyping of lacking in "intelligence" and "laziness." Not so with Leaf, who to this day, can't get his life together and have done more distruction to his football career than VY and JR combined. But we won't deal with that reality. We'll just keep mocking VY and JR everytime their name is mentioned with whatever stereotypical images the media reated of them while they were in the NFL because that must make u feel good.

FYI, we're not STUPID. Contrary to the false belief.

And, unlike many of u, I much rather wish all these athletes, who didn't quite get it right when they were younger, all the best as adults, and that includes Ryan Leaf. I hope he gets his act together someday. There is a kid out there who can learn from all of these QBs who had their dreams in their hands and threw them away.

Funny that VY and JR trying to get their lives together, brings out the usual not so well cloaked racial comments of "intelligence" and "laziness." Not so with Leaf, who to this day, can't get his life together and have done more distruction to his football career than VY and JR combined. But we won't deal with that reality. We'll just keep mocking VY and JR everytime their name is mentioned with whatever stereotypical images the media reated of them while they were in the NFL because that's not racist at all.

Not knowing you personally, I dont really know if you're stupid. I can, however, confidently state that better than 90% of what you post on this forum is quite stupid. Sometimes I wonder if your screen name is also the sum total of what you actually know about the game.

Young, Russell and Titus are all derided here because they're idiots, not because they're black. There's equal derision for mental midgets like Leaf and Jeff George, though both are less recent so not talked about as much.

And a word of advice: You may want to read the board guidelines again before you start calling people racist.

Please find another vocabulary word to label me beside "stupid." It gets way to over used on this site. And, It says a lot more about ur limited ability to think outside of the box, which then proves my point.

Also, unlike ur narrowminded view of me, I like some of the things u have posted and have commented as such...Have a nice day.

Self hate seems to come so natural for some that they believe others shouldn't be offended when they project it unto them and their kind....Hmmmm

Post something that isn't stupid and I'll happily describe it a different way.

I've seen some really mind numbing ignorance regarding race posted on these boards, and it wasn't from KT.

agreed...however, this thread was talking about how Young was not the sharpest knife in the drawer...it had nothing to do with race!
