[USML Announce] What a Bunch of A-Holes

[Jeffrey Winick]

Which only demonstrates that once again I've gotten you to take the bait....  It's just too easy (and yet so much fun).


Go Bears!  Go anyone playing the Packers!

Found this through ten seconds of research…..
 
http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/12/21/506444174/nfl-rookie-k-j-dillon-gets-stuck-with-16-000-dinner-bill-in-hazing-ritual
 
First sentence of the article:
 
It's become a tradition in the NFL for players to go out for an exorbitantly expensive meal to welcome rookies — and then stick them with the bill.
 
Next time, do some actual research before you pipe up.  It will avoid you being embarrassed in the future….

That’s the best retort you can up with?  Sad.
 
I note that despite your fake news proclamation that this is a widespread practice (presumably based upon your own extensive personal experience) that there’s only one story on the wires and it only involves one team.  So at a minimum it indicates that the other NFL teams at least have the good sense to keep it quiet.

Is this really the best you can do? You think this only happens on the Packers?  Weak.

So the big-shot Packer veterans force the rookies to take them out to dinner.  Some highlights:

 

12 shots of Macallan 25 whisky at $215/shot - that's $2580 for a little less than a half bottle of scotch.

3 shots of Louis XIII for $305/shot.

7 bottles of Lafite Rothschild at $2700/each

4 bottles of Merus Cabernet at $1500/magnum

1 bottle of Harlan Cabernet at $1445

 

If I'm the owner of the restaurant I'm thrilled that these idiots showed up at my restaurant.  If I'm one of the rookies, I just might miss one of my next blocks.  

 

No surprise though - being an a-hole is the Packer way.
