Bud Adams is awesome.
I haven't seen this discussed yet, but Bud Adams little stunt this weekend gave me a good laugh. I know people are going to whine and cry about it, but I love to see someone get amped up and I thought it was funny. Here's a youtube for those of you that have no clue what I'm talking about.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
I thought it was fine. Who really cares? Why was he fined 250k? That seems totally ridiculous. You know he was just responding to the fans sitting in front of him doing the exact same stuff. It was all in good fun I think.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
Was there a reason for the gesture or are we just looking at an 86 year old man who might be exhibiting signs of dementia? I am completely serious, I'd take it as a disturbing sign for the man's mental health, though I do not know if there is some extended back story that might suggest it is something else.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
I think it is great that an owner in his 80's would be so into things. That said, he may wish to find a cheaper way to express his enthusiasm. $250k? Ouch.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
I'm pretty much a fan of ANY old man acting in such a way, so for an 86 year old billionaire to be dancing with guns'a'blazing is hilarious in my opinion.
Does he look like a fool? Yeah. Does he embarrass the Titans organization? Some what. Is it funny? You bet your ass it is!

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
sadly, during a game in 2006 when JC had the wind knocked out of him, Mark Brunell jogged onto the field. People booed him like crazy and many people flicked him off.
Whats the big deal over Bud Adams doing it? seriously

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
I would think if Snyder did this people would be in a mega uproar around here.
Not a classy move if you ask me. The league should expect better from it's owners and I don't have a problem with the large fine. |

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
I guess I shouldnt be surprised that people dont understand the difference between a drunk fan giving the bird and the owner doing it, but I am surprised how many people dont get it.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
While I have no problem with him flipping the bird the NFL is big business and in big business you can't do that without consequence.
Must say though I was rather amused. Kudos Bud, here's a Bud for You!
