I Can't Believe........
 
They still have Michael Irvin doing commentary for them?????:huh: They guy is a convicted drug user and continues to use, and be caught and to treat people, all people, like they are stupid by claiming the drugs were not his!!!! The network should have canned his useless butt and if I were his co-commentators I would have pulled a "either he goes or I go" with the network!!!!! The guy is no good and the youth of this country need to be shown that when you do wrong....there is a penalty for your wrong doing and you will lose out in the end....not to be shown that if you do wrong, you will get an endless string of second chances so just try to not get caught!!!!!:rocketem: I hate looking at the flamboyant, egotistical piece of crap!!!!:lossinit:

I was thinking about it too when I saw he was still on the air :huh:
I don't know about the "he goes or I go" part there bigfish, but I think the network could have handled it better and had an investigation or a drug test atleast :rollem: I agree it sends the wrong meessage to our youth.:yak5:

They should automatically put it in their contract....:rtfm:...any drug related arrests, convictions or otherwise, will result in automatic contract termination voiding all terms of the contract!!!!! See Ya!:eyes:

They talkied about this on WEEI not too long ago,

It is a sad commentary on today's society when someone of "importance" is arrested for a drug related offense but continues to prosper.

It definitely sends the wrong message to our youth.They assume drug use is OK and being arrested is no biggy and then IT happens to them and the true reality is that its an absolute horror show.

The whole zoot suit inspired look is pretty absurd really. At least if you're going to do it, make sure your collar is straight and your tie is knotted properly. He looked like an idiot.
