Idiot of the Week


Ok, I'm starting a new feature entitled "Idiot of the Week". This award will be bestowed upon the individual who most conspicuously embodies the concept of Capital Stupidity (rising to the level of punishment by death so that they don't further infect the gene pool)by word, deed, or both. In some weeks there may not be an award if no one really qualifies...this award is not given lightly, so the individual really must "earn" it.

That said, it gives me great displeasure to present the inaugural ABM's Idiot of the Week Award to Plaxico Burress, wide receiver and idiot extraordinaire for shooting himself in the leg with his own gun in a nightclub on Friday night. Now folks, it takes a real special variety of idiot to exhibit stupidity to this degree. Plaxico is unable to accept this award in person because he's not getting around to well.

We wish him a speedy recovery and a big fine for being such a dumbass. Few things piss the ABM off more than a spoiled assed overpaid man-child who cannot grow the hell up and represent the organization and fans that are paying him millions of dollars to simply play a game and keep his ass out of trouble. How difficult is that...?

Well stay tuned because given his previous track record, Plaxico stands a good chance to win future IoW (Idiot of the Week) Awards, though Pacman Jones has been quiet for about a month, which means he's overdue for doing something incredibly stupid any minute.

ABM will accept nominations for IoW from readers. Just email me at bew795@yahoo.com and I will gladly consider all nominees.

This was a well deserved IoW award. Just plain stupid. I'll keep my eyes peeled for future deserving IoW's

I do this thing called the “dumbest thing of the day” and that will make me laugh all day. I listen to the news or read the paper and find something really dumb. But I do like the IoW, because this guy… OMG can you go to jail for being a complete …… I will be talking about this dumb mess for a while. But I would like you to consider as a candidate for IOW or for the really special idiots expand the category to month or even year. My nomination would be Mr. OJ Simpson, after watching his sentencing yesterday I have to admit he never stops amazing me. He appeared to be remorseful, tearful and pitiful for a period as long as the speech 2- 5 minutes. The judge stated at the beginning of the trail she wasn’t sure if was just “arrogant or ignorant”. However, I didn’t agree with her assessment that he was/is both, NO WAY. Mr. Simpson is just an arrogant SOB, who actually believed he wouldn’t have to spend time in jail. But after the 60+ days he thought if I go and cry in front of GOD and everybody, there is no way they will put “ME” back in jail. (fyi, there were folks that I work with felt really sorry for him) So I guess it did work on some women just not the woman he needed to work on because she just took any sip of her soda and sent that guy to jail.
