Jeez what does someone have to do in order to be a douche bag in your book? Kill someone?

What he's done was enough to get him booted for 8 games and now CUT from his team, that's douche bag enough for me.

I couldn't type fast enough! Boy the "ROLE MODELS" I just hope you were shittin or totally kidding? If not your in sad shape!

He might be a fair "ROLE MODEL" for PACTIRD, or one of the other TARDS, maybe even Henry or TO, nobody else really comes to mind.

And IMO HE IS 100% SHIT, TIRD, DOUCHE BAG, anything else related to TRASH is close enough!

So tell me then, what did Tank do? I'm curious if he had one weapon as opposed to several would that change our perception of him?What does someone have to do in my book to be a douche bag? Well, I'm not sure now that I really think about it. But seeing that he never intentially or unintentionally, for that matter, harmed anyone I really can't come to any hard core conclusion about his douche bagness. I can maybe come to an opinion about his judgement, but certainly not him as a person. And it's not beyond reason that he could indeed become a role model. I don't see what's so far fetched about that? Would you consider Michael Jordan a role model? If so, why?But I'll say this...and I'll use myself for example...if you took the two most questionable things that I've personally done and aired it, repeatedly, on ESPN, CNN and local news outlets for the next 36 hours, I'm sure you would have a totally different opinion of me.

What did he do?

Why don't you tell me what you think he did to get an 8 game ban and now his ass cut from the Bears.

I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would back this fool.

I still say make trade offer for either Simeion Rice or Kris Jenkins

Hey 12th, This is just a start.......let's see dope, guns,arrested and charged with aggravated assault & resisting arrest, and he quotes to police,"You ain't the only one with a Glock. If it wasn't for your gun and your badge, I'd kick your ass."
Right out of prision into trouble again...? hum....? ROLE MODEL? If thats your kind of ROLE MODEL.....you might wanna go ahead and turn yourself in.

I'd love to see Gibbs sign Tank for last 8 games of next season with behavior clause and workout clause. He'd probably be really helpfull last half of the season if he didn't goto jail. I understand cleaning up the leauge and I understand the Bears cutting him. But I'm definitely not against the Redskins signing him now for minimum with clauses. If Gibbs can't work it out it usually isn't meant to be.

why would we want to waste a rosater spot on that pathetic bastard?

Another thing to think about for Tank is that he very well may be out of shape after his 6-8 game suspension. Here are the highlights of the $665 dollars mostly spent of junk food while locked up for 60 days:

• 162 beef sticks
• 40 honey bun sweet rolls
• 35 summer sausage blocks
• 35 bags of barbecue chips

Not sure what a summer sausage block is but it sounds good.

But is spending a roster spot on a potential beast tackle for years to come for500k really that much of a risk, if he truns out to be D. Russell after his suspension is up we can just let him go.

I think Tank will be a great citizen once all this blows over.

While I would agree that the dude is a thug. All the brush's with the law bear that out. Additionally, if you threaten a cop (your not the only one with a Glock), your stupid factor is through the roof!
However, a detail admittedly, but one close to my heart. If owning an "assault rifle" makes you a thug, I am one as well. The whole assault weapon thing was just spin by some politico's for a do-nothing law on a public that effectively did not know better. An "assault weapon" is basically no different than any other weapon. They just look evil.

I too own a assult weapon, and there is nothing thugish about me.

Though i dont know all the specifics about his gun case, his defense was that he is a resident of Arizona where you dont need to register your firearms. I believe IL has strict gun laws, and firearms are banned in Chicago. So this unregistered firearms charge sounds like a careless mistake on his behalf, not him just being a thug. Now the fact that he got a concelled weapons charge ealier in IL makes it a really dumb careless mistake, but most likely just that.

Like somebody posted earlier, when your on the radar, you have walk the walk. He apparently doesn't get that
