Craig James for Senate 2012

Nope, get a fucking pain-in-the-ass father out of your hair at the cost of getting rid of an insignificant player (and in the process opening up a scholarship for somebody who can actually play. Win-win).

And that's how a lot of coaches DO do it. The vast vast majority, in fact.


And it's not even really punishing the kid: it's kicking him off a team where he's really not good enough to play and sending him off to some other mid-major or Div. 2 school where he might be able to get on the field. Big daddy gotrocks Craig is rich anyway, he can pay to send him somewhere else if he can't scrounge up a scholie. The kid won't be out a nickel in any case.

 

He'll collapse under his own pretentious weight. Talk about all hat and no cattle.

 

It's funny, I agree with thought that knowing names of various department heads or heads of state is overrated. But I do think any politician should know what a gallon of milk costs, what a gallon of gas costs, the fed budget total, the national debt and the current unemployment rate in his state.
Too often the only numbers these people know are their fundraising totals, their Dem/Rep ratio in their district and their golf handicap.

 

Having a group of candidates compete on "The Price is Right" would be must-see TV.

 

Why do I think Craig James would be the "$1 over the highest bid guy?"

 

How much could a banana cost?

 

Dickbaggy? Yes. Good strategy? Frequently.

. . . remains a serious flaw in the show. Everyone should have to declare, simultaneously, and cut out that bullshit.

 

James doesn't have a chance in this field. Here's the latest poll I found.

"James, who formally launched his campaign last week, draws 4 percent support. The former SMU Mustang and New England Patriot running back is struggling to overcome two liabilities: he’s largely unknown and he’s unpopular among those who know him."

 

Other than the "largely unknown" part, he appears to have carried his broadcasting persona into politics.

 

The utter lack of self-knowledge among too many politicians remains mindboggling.

 

Craig James, who gave $300,000 to his campaign and won 4 percent of the vote, humbly seeks your support in paying off his debts.
