You Are Testing Our Limits, Washington Redskins

by Adam Jacobi on Aug 14, 2009 11:44 AM CDT in Iowa Hawkeyes Football

An insult to Ladell is an insult to the University of Iowa and to wonderful city of Blue Springs, Missouri. How dare you all.

Ahem. Sirs, that man is Ladell Betts, not "Ladell Bettis". He was one of the rocks upon whom Kirk Ferentz rebuilt this Iowa program. He is a man of exceptional skill and class, a gentleman to the core. Quite unlike us in all respects, as a matter of fact. You disrespect his name and his identity at your own peril.

Fortunately, it's a Friday, and we don't lose our tempers on Friday. It's a religious thing. HOWEVER, either Washington issues a formal apology to Betts, offers him the starting HB role as a sign of contrition, and sends us a cashier's check for $75,000... or we bring the BEEF. This is our serious face.

Not to mention...

…how pissed Jerome Betts must be .

If it's not too much trouble, search your soul--and then ask yourself if maybe I might have a point.

What do you

expect….obviously ther is a problem with spellingi n our nation’s capitol. Especially when it comes to vowels. Maybe it’s a deficit spending ting. This spring they couldn’t buy a vowel for the “Nats”….they must have passed an emergency spending bill and are stuck with a shit load of " I’s " “”http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikehill33/3460940666/"/> I’s "

Can we Mancott the Redskins?

Because that would be the first one I ever actually participated in. I would do it anyway, because they are pure evil, but the fact that they have insulted the man responsible for the most remarkable individual accomplisment in the history of college athletics (rushing for over 1000 yards behind the 2000 Iowa line) makes it much easier.

Oh, this is very typical of Snyderland.

Because he is a singular a**hole.

He’s a Bill Bidwell without the Brooks Bros. decorum.

He’s Geo. Steinbrenner, pre-Gene Michaels.

He’s John Gotti without the stones to do it himself.

He’s as gracioius as LBJ, walking around the White House or Air Force One without his pants, doing his secretaries with his wife in the next room.

I once interviewed a woman at 8:30 a.m. who was an accountant for Snyder Communications, and worked for Snyder’s sister (Michelle). The woman broke down in tears, shaking, with fear, at going back to work for the Snyders. She was being instructed daily to cook the books. I didn’t have a job for her. She couldn’t afford to quit.

Another friend of mine flies Challengers. (Big Canadairs, the dipshits G IV or Falcon 900.) A friend of his flies Challengers. Snyder used to ride in a Challenger, flown by this friend of a friend. Dan Snyder was the most grotesque, vulgar, screaming, little man, f*cked up king of commerce anyone had ever encountered at Hawthorne Aviation at Dulles. This is the dope who bought and destroyed the ’Skins.

The Snyders are bad.

Ask Matt Bowen about the Snyders. Ask Marty Schottenheimer about Snyderland. Ask Gregg Williams, ask Arrington, ask anyone. What do you suppose they’ll say?

Mr. Boh Knows ...
