LaGarrette Blount now punches guy WITH helmet on

[FirstTimer]

I Didn't compare him to Pacman, but the reason this is news is because he's a repeat offender of cracking guys in the dome.

If you've been arrested for shoplifting, you don't steal candy from the bin at the grocery store. Blount isn't very smart.

Ok...but comparing Blount doing something in the heat of a moment twice..and the second one being absolutley no big deal regardless of who is doing it...is a HUGE stretch in comparing the "repeat" aspect of it to Pacman who's clown tendancies are off the field, not in the heat of the moment, and have resulted in police action.

Looks like more of a Bas Rutten style open handed palm strike to me.

...except its Legarrette Blount, so it is news. Because he has a habit of punching people in the head.

If he does. It a third time, will we still be making excuses? He's a clown.

You're right, Blount is an idiot. He has problems and was getting suspensions at Oregon before the whole Boise incident.

This is still an overblown story, out of all the things he's done wrong this is by far the tamest. I don't understand all the fake outrage over something so common.

I dont even really disagree with any of this, but I don't agree with simply blowing this off as a non story when its a guy who has the history that he has. It's a legit story, and not a run-of-the-mill training camp scrap, because it's Blount. He shouldnt be suspended or anything, but clearly this isnt a good sign.

[FedEx227]

Agreed.

Its like if Pacman Jones got into another strip club brawl, and people defended it by saying, "people get into strip club brawls all the time, the media is only making a big deal because its Pacman Jones."

Um, yeah, that's exactly why its a big deal. Because its Legarrette Blount.

It's also NFL fan hypocrisy at it's finest.

The reason it's a story is because the guy got suspended last year for doing this exact same thing... how can people not see why it's a story.

If Ron Artest punched a player in training camp in the year following "The Brawl", would it just be "Well NBA training camp fights happen a lot, who cares?"

No, it's a big fucking deal because this guy SHOULD be on a short leash.

LaGarrette Blount v. Hershel Walker at Strikeforce Challengers XXXVII, vote for it at the Strikeforce.com forums!!

I thought this would be obvious to everyone. Great post.

Was just about to post this exact example.

But, yeah. What's the excuse should this guy actually make a roster and for whatever reason hook off on someone during a game? You know they're gonna be baiting him for it.

sidenote; it's been said so many times before, but you have to be a special kind of stupid to punch someone wearing a football helmet.

[Prodigal Son]

LeGarrette Blount is an idiot. Why can't he control himself? To be the first guy to punch someone at practice is embarassing.

My first impression:

When the fuck did Samkon Gado sign with the Titans?

[Sigona]

Why would you fuck with this guy anyway? You know he's not afraid to fight lol.

[Fox1994]

Before watching the video I was gonna try and defend him thinking it was probably just part of a scuffle after a play or something. But after watching this guy is a straight idiot. Think before you act.

I concur.

[Chadman]

after watching the video..blount is a retarded classless thug. He is what 35% of todays athletes are only he has no control of where he came from. That wasnt a training camp fight. That was blount being blount. The mfer has some issues....big time. That punch on the guy was not called for. lol at him swinging a punch and throwing his hands up and getting in his fighting stance. I grew up around shit like that. To see blount do that shit just shows that you cant take the hood out of a person.

[Rush]

After seeing the video again, lmao.

If he would have punched him and moved on, I would have been on his side. However he did that gay ass scuffle/boxing/sway thing with his arms that most black people do when they are about to fight.
