Emmitt's mock

Good stuff. I always get anxious for the draft around Febtober.

Love that Matt Ryan was drafted twice.

At least Emmitt didn't say "Clyde Lemons" was "Abe Lemmons."
And does Jerra know there is a Darren McDaniels at Arkansas?

Is this mock draft a joke or have Emmitt's brain cells dwindled to that level held by Joe Frazier and Larry Holmes. But those two had a good reason for being ... slow, and that is being pounded continuously in the head without a helmet.

Again, is this mock draft by Emmitt for real or is she headed to premature senility?

Is this post a joke?

Read the top of the article, it says pretty clearly that it's a joke and not by Emmitt.
 
:laugh2:

Poor Emmitt (so to speak).

I wonder if he reads this stuff and how it makes him feel.

Gosh, that was brutal and very funny at the same time.

:laugh2:

I see it now. Thanks.

ESPN analyst: "Do you see any other running back who could go ahead of McFadden?

Emmitt: "Only if he go before McFadden."

It's making fun of Emmitt's not-so-great-command of the English language.

Oh...

I didn't realize that making fun of other people's short comings was funny ...

here lets try this...

how do you get a one arm man out of a tree... you wave to him...HA

have you ever seen Stevie Wonders house...neither has he... HA

Do you know why the Challenger crew didn't take a bath before launch...because they knew they would wash up on shore... HA

I really don't find anything amusing about those but maybe laughing at others failings/misfortunes is the thing to do

Perhaps the "not so great command of the English language" jokes are better get a load of these

"Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream."

I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family."

"I hear there's rumors on the Internets that we're going to have a draft."

"I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully."

"You work three jobs? … Uniquely American, isn't it? I mean, that is fantastic that you're doing that."

"Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country."

"They misunderestimated me."

"Rarely is the questioned asked: Is our children learning?"

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

Ha ha... Aren't we having great fun...

I'm sorry I know this thread was meant to be light hearted and I am a kill joy but I just don't understand how the belittlement of another human being can bring others such joy...

Perhaps I am just being over sensitive as I work with mentally ********/handicapped children and if I am... than again I apologize.. but I still don't find it amusing in the least.

Duck Dude.
 
The reason Donovan McNabb have great arm strength is the fact that his arm is so strong. But it might as well not even matters because his receivers cannot catch a fly with their Chinese toothpick.

I think you're being oversensitive to compare handicapped children to Emmitt Smith's butchery of the king's English.

Second, he brought the attention to himself by agreeing to be a communicator on a show that relies on people to communicate effectively.

Can't you see the irony/humor in that?

IMO, if someone fancies themselves as an analyst and puts something out there like THAT, they are fair game.

LOL, I didn't know that. That's even better.

Really, Zax, I don't think this quite compares to ridiculing birth defects or other unavoidable sadnesses of life. Emmitt is a very wealthy ex-athlete who doesn't even have to work if he doesn't want to.

Yes, indeed.
And when they are rich and overpaid to take a legitimate announcer's job and that same person refers to himself as a "diamond" and then butchers the language as if he never saw a day in college, yes, FAIR GAME!!!

ESPN Analyst: "See any runnings backs beyond McFadden who could help the Cowboys?"
Emmitt: "Anyone which can run better is the one to watch."
