He's a "me" guy.[/quote]

I never heard that. Or saw it. Doesn't he have a charity?

There are a lot of exaggerations in this story about McNabb and about Snyder. Being made a much bigger deal than it needs to be. But I guess that's what happens with this lockout.

As for Green, I guess maybe I'll dig up some old posts

Charity doesn't necessarily make you a good person. Even Hitler and Stalin gave to charity. Heck Snyder tried to use his charity events as a get out of jail free card the media. Not saying thats why he did it, but some people don't really understand the concept of charity where the only times you should advertise is when your filling out your tax return or when your story will encourage someone else to give or donate. Unfortunately some people use charity to rid their concense of guilt or to get other people to like them (ie the attempt to buy respect overshadows the actual purpose of a charitable act).

Anyway I'm getting off track. The point is you can give to or start a charity and still be a jerk.

Having a charity doesn't exclude you from being an a-hole with a huge ego. I'll let SS take it from here.

Dirtbag has not signed an autograph in some time. Jerk.

Speaking of A-Holes (SCP's going to love this) DM5 responds to Bernard Hopkins (the aforementioned A-hole) comments, that quite frankly are almost beyond belief, through everyones favorite agent Fletcher Smith.

[url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6535942]Donovan McNabb: Bernard Hopkins' barbs 'are dangerous and irresponsible' - ESPN[/url]
[quote]The agent for the Washington Redskins quarterback and former Philadelphia Eagles star released a statement Thursday that said Hopkins' racially tinged insults about McNabb "are dangerous and irresponsible."

"It perpetuates a maliciously inaccurate stereotype that insinuates those African-Americans who have access to a wider variety of resources are somehow culturally different than their brethren," Fletcher Smith said.

Hopkins, the former middleweight champion, has verbally bashed McNabb like a punching bag for years. Hopkins, a Philadelphia native and diehard Eagles fan, has repeatedly criticized McNabb for a variety of perceived grievances.

Seriously say what you want about McNabb and his passive aggressive nature but I don't think anyone is going to side with Hopkins on this one.

Definitely true. Although you'll still hear, "I can't be an asshole - I have a charity!"

Re: Skinsfaninok's Available NFL QBs Poll
 

I think Hopkins has taken a few too many shots to the head.

[quote=SmootSmack;802586]I'm staying out of this discussion because my opinion of the Junkies is basically the equivalent of what many people here think of Snyder. And I know the Junkies and have worked with them.

However, I have heard from multiple people similar McNabb stories (I will say sometimes he strikes me as kind of "Darrell Green"-ish; enough people here know what I'm talking about)[/quote]

All I know is Darrell Green was HELLA annoying during the whole HOF induction process after he was elected.

His ego is straight up outrageous.

Great football player. Great community contributions guy.

Crazy full of himself.
